The Swede

I use a Castrol GL 3 Oil in my transmission. They sell both GL3 and GL 4 types.

I have unused transmission gaskets. Can go over to my brother and have them scanned this week

Thank you for the answers! /Jimmy

Hello all! I´m trying to find the Universal tractor fluid you guys are using in the fluid drive Looked at Napas homepage but I´m not sure which one it is. So if someone can help me with a link to the correct fluid on their homepage it would be great! Since I am in Sweden I have to find a fluid here that is similar to the Universal tractor fluid you are using. Seeing a product sheet on the one you are using might help! Thanks Jimmy

Hello I´m interested in buying your transmission! But I am in Sweden..... But if you can ship it to NJ where my freight forwarder is located I´ll buy it from you right away! $50 + shipping My transmission in my 47 has seen better days so I could really need another one. Finding one here in Sweden should be like finding a needle in a haystack or something like that. I can pay you with paypal if that´s okey? Please Let me know! Best Regards Jimmy

Anyone who has a Modern PPG Paint Code for Fortress Gray 508? Tried to mix some touch up paint from different paint buckets I have in the garage but I think it´s better if someone can mix it for me........... Jimmy

Yes there is some work going on....... Right now she sits outside my garage because my Dodge is inside for some work. Here is a few pictures I took some months ago. And some newer Some rust in the back..... I´m gonna shoot some new pics when she´s back in the garage. The most of the damage from the crash is now repaired. A grille is somewhere on the Atlantic on it´s way to me right now. Should arrive in the end of the month. But left is rust, rust and more rust to repair......

Thank you guys for all the answers! Did a lot of thinking and finally I decided to buy radials. I´m planning to do a lot of driving this summer so it looks like radials are the best choice for me. /Jimmy

So.... I wish to share the sad story of my 1950 Chrysler Windsor with you guys. But beware! there is some pictures here which might offend you. So if Your Mopar heart is weak, please be advised! So everything started in winter 2006. I saw an ad for a 1950 Chrysler Windsor, 4Dr Sedan on the net. Yihaa! looked okey on the picture. Went over and looked at it.... Of course with money on my pocket. Looked okey, it was rusty but what the heck! These cars does n´t appear in the ads to often here in Sweden. So I bought it. With todays Exchange rates it would cost about $7000. Me and my friend drove it home with no problems. Here is a really bad picture of the car I took with my cellphone when we stopped for a refuel on the way home. This is the only picture I have on the car before the bad thing happened. But some more info about the car: It was sold new here in Sweden in 1950. 14 owners before me. Somewhere in the line of owners someone started to threat her like you should n´t treat a vintage Mopar. When she was new in 1950 I´m sure the first owner here in Sweden was a man who had a lot of cash because that type of car was´t available to a regular swede. So I came home with the car and drove it around for about two weeks. My intention was to drive her for a while and then but her in the garage for some major rust repairs. So one night it happened. My and some friends took the old Chrysler to a party. A friend of mine fixed us up with a dedicated driver for the night. So me and the others had a beer or maybe it was twenty? at the party... When it was time tho drive home it was really late and the night was pretty cold. We had to drop of a friend of mine who lives outside of town first. We dropped her of and headed back to town. When we were driving up the freewayramp the car went into a skid. The ground had frozed during the night and our driver barely manage to keep my Chrysler on the road. I shouted to him to take it easy! Damn we ain´t in a hurry. Unfortunately I was a bit drunk at the time so after a few minutes I felt to sleep there in the backseat. But suddenly I woked up, feeling that he was driving way to fast. Just when I were about to shout at him again for driving to damn fast the car went into a skid again. This time the driver didn´t manage to keep her on the road so we all went riding in to a road fence........... * The frame bent * Front and rear fender had some damage, mostly the front fender * The grille was demolished * So did the lights on the bumper. * Fender moldings flew away * FL tire and rim demolished * I became really close to take a man´s life more info to come on this one......... ( I´ll have to rest my fingers) But hey she ain´t dead if that was what you thought!

greg g: If I understand you right, there is a person in Norway who wants to buy a transmission from you? If so, give him this address: http://www.jetcarrier.com It´s for the freight forwarding company that I use. And the best of all they ship from US to Norway. I have to ship the Items I buy from Norway over here to Sweden. According to their price list he should be able to ship it from NJ to Norway for about $86.77.

I´m using a freight forward company to ship everything I buy in the US over to me. In the end of this month a ship leaves NJ with some things I bought. The good thing is that I bought two bumpers for my brothers Nova. He´s paying for the shipping so if I find tires before the end of this month I can ship them together with my brothers stuff. Wouldn't cost me much at all. Looked at Coker Tire and they even have paypal on their site! Really easy for me to shop there. But both dbtires and the candy store has cheaper alternatives. The tires on dbtires are tubeless so I save a few bucks on tubes if I buy from there.... I really don´t know where to shop. Sent a mail to dbtires and asked if they accept my credit card so let´s see.

Okey! Yes but I have to look around. I have a shipping adress in the US so shipping shouldn´t be so expensive.... Just need to find a company who can charge my swedish Visa card and ship in the US.

Yes radials should be a good choice I think. Didn´t even know they exist as a choice for that dimension. Is this the same dimension? http://www.universaltire.com/cart.php?target=product&product_id=24813&category_id=324 I´m no good at converting tire dimensions......

Hello everyone. I´m looking for new tires for my dodge. Where to buy 600-16 with whitewalls online? Here in Sweden those tires cost about the same as my car. But I can´t drive around on the modern stuff that sits on my car right now. Regards Jimmy

Yes I also thought of the seatbelt alternative. Strange is that on the passenger side the hole is drilled right thru the muffler heatshield.... The job of an expert..... or not
