  1. Could it be wired incorrectly, too?
  2. Nice looking car. The seat uphostery is not original. It is either reuphostered or there are seat covers over the original material.
  3. I sent you a Private Message but I am not sure you can get them yet because you are new to the site. See if you can send me one Joe
  4. Sniper is correct. There is a rubber o-ring that seals the cap and they get stuck from years of being tightened down. Take a rubber mallet and tap upward along the edge of the cap . This will loosen the cap from the filter housing. (hopefully you drained some oil out of the filter otherwise you may have a mess from oil in the canister coming out over the top) Also, there should be a spring on the inside of the cap that the bolt goes through. That could be the "clicking" sound you hear.
  5. Hey GrumpyJim, There is a car show tomorrow, Sept 10th, at the Pleasant Valley Middle School Are you planning on attending? Joe
  6. Don, The more pictures you show of these cars the more I regret selling mine (many,many years ago.)
  7. It could be a Suburban which had 3 seats or a Carry-All which had 2 seats' (like a regular 4-door sedan) I had a 49 (real 49 not an early one) Suburban Sedan of which there were only 129 made. I have not seen another one I also had a 1951 Carry-All I wish I had kept them.
  8. MOST - like 99.9999999% of Travelers have lost that step plate through the years. Much like Studebaker Wagonaires are missing the step rail on the tailgate - which isn't hard to replicate - it's just tubular steel.
  9. Great. If you want to get together ASAP let me know Maybe we can meet up this weekend if you want. I don't know if you can get PM's yet or not but I sent you one anyway with my phone # Looking forward to meeting you and seeing your car.
  10. I see you are in Penna. Where in Pa. are you located? I am in Stroudsburg, Pa and if you're not too far we can get together and I can help with your car. I have owned several of the 46-49 Chryslers,Dodges,DeSotos and Plymouths - later years, too. Joe
  11. I have used needle nose pliers, too, to remove/tighten that bezel with the slots
  12. You have to put the seat bottom cushion in on an angle (back part down and under the rear seat/back cushion) and while holding the front of the cushion up (slightly) push the cushion in and under the back cushion

  14. I was looking for one for you but I could not find one. I apologize for that. Don't know why an 11" cap won't fit.
  15. Best way to "find" them is to find a parts car that has solid ones. They are not reproduced. I have some from a 46 Chrysler parts car that I will be using on my 49 Plymouth - one of these years.......
  16. Did the gauge work before the new tank/sending unit? Make sure the sending unit is well grounded. Running an extra ground wire from the sending unit to the frame (or any other part of the body) makes for a good ground.
  17. Hard to see Maybe it will help
  18. Thanks for the pics I am sure you'll remember once it is back together
  19. Does the linkage connect on the passenger side of the engine? Please post a picture of the side(s) of the engine so we can see if we can pinpoint the correct location From looking at some "not so great" pictures it seems like the bracket may bolt onto the manifold(s) - just a guess.
