    I'm watching for one too....I'll let you know if I find a spare
  2. Young Ed
    That would be 41-42 and you should be able to drill the holes and mount the trim.

    3 SPD or 4? I think the 3s have synchros in 2 and 3. I know my 46 does.
  4. Young Ed
    T5s are/were plentiful and came behind similarly power 4 and 6 cylinders. They can also be adapted to the original truck bellhousing quite easily. 4 drilled and tapped holes and a slight spacer ring to make the trans a tight fit to the hole and it's ready.

    There should be a little wick at the back of the speedometer to oil that too. Also not sure I would assume that the cable is well lubed just because it's new. Did this problem getting worse coincide with a drop in temp? They may have used something that's too thick for cold weather

    Yes the original glass to channel seal was just that tar paper looking stuff and I believe a lot of guys just glue them in. There is then a molded seal for windshield frame to body. Can you go see it again and bring a better light and be armed with what we mentioned to check?
  7. Young Ed
    I was going to ask about the windshield frame. They are rust prone and expensive to replace! These trucks are gaining popularity which means availability of aftermarket parts is up but so are prices.
  8. Young Ed
    If you like the truck I wouldn't worry too much about the engine. Even if it's one of the smaller displacements your 251 will swap in place of another 25" block. How is the body? Anything obvious missing? Rust?
  9. Young Ed
    You can have whatever leaks out of my 2
  10. Young Ed
    Yup and the covered car to it's right is mine too. My normal storage was booked.
  11. Young Ed
    Clean off that flat spot at the top of the center section and see if the ratio is there. If you happened upon some 3.73 or lower ratios you'll have some demand.

    About 2 weeks ago I was trying to get Dad's 55 Chrysler with 331 hemi running for storage. Found out I'd forgotten to disconnect the battery in the spring. Charged it a little and got it running only for it to die in the street while I was trying to turn it around. 12 jumped right from my minivan to the Chrysler and got it started back up. I don't believe it hurt anything! The dash lights were sure brighter for a min though. I got it turned around and left the charger on it overnight. Started on its own the next day so nothing too wounded.

    I think 37-39 bodies were the same. Emblems probably changed but the basic lid might interchange. You'd need Mopar parts books or a Hollander to know for sure
  14. Young Ed
    You don't but typically the idea is to put it in OD and let the automatic be automatic.
  15. Young Ed
    They were optional so if you never had a heater setup your truck probably never had them. I wonder if DCM or Roberts has reproductions? A quick Google shows Chevy trucks have similar looking pieces for about $20 new

    A couple summers ago I had about half gas half water in my 47. I bought a funnel on Amazon that filters the water out and let's the gas through. I did that and then added some heat just in case it missed a little
  17. Young Ed
    There are pieces that attach behind the dash and transition to round duct hose that you can then connect to a heater.

    Original p15 ground was to a generator mount bolt. Later Plymouths moved it to a head bolt that was taped for a smaller bolt
  19. Young Ed
    Clockwise for run counter for accessories. Did they put the switch in upsidedown? Key should go teeth up

    Looking at my Looking at my 40-47 dodge Fargo book it looks like the numbers are a different system. The 1940 is a DB 41s a DC and then 42-47 is a DD. So I believe a DG would be the next model run after a DF. These 41-47s don't have a -26 model but there is a -20 which is a one ton with a 120" wheelbase and then a -33 with 133" wheelbase.

    Lots of scrubbing with basic soap and a not got the major staining off. It still needs a good polish and wax though
  22. Young Ed
    It's a picture of a book. What are you trying to share?
  23. Young Ed
    For my 47 with Dakota bench seat I was able to take the Dakota brackets and then them backwards. That fixed the angle problem but now my adjuster lever is on the pass side facing the rear cab wall!
  24. Young Ed
    You probably wouldn't be the first guy to buy a 20' length and cut it in the parking lot.
  25. Young Ed
    Dad had an international scout with a bad tank. He drove it all around with a boat tank in the bed. It had a homemade wood bed to I think that would have negated the static issue.
