    Is it just me, or is this just a bit OT?

    Sure, you can put a tube inn the hole and long enough to reach the bottom of the engine. That would definitely direct the odor out under the car and away from the firewall.

    Check that can, it may have the hole in it where the draft tube used to be.

    It does give you room to shave the block in case of warpage. Possibly Greg's has been machined.

    WLS in Chicago. Home of Dick Biondi and the Vault of Treasured Music. The background music of the "Submarine Races" at Marquette Park in Gary.

    The second type you show is in my P-15. There is no fresh air inlet. It only recirculates inside air.

    It looks like the engine number from a truck. It should be on a small raised pad at the front left side of the block just under the cylinder head parting line.

    Wow. I fear I would kill for any one of those.

    She's probably as happy to get out as you are. I'm jealous of you both. The only "getting out" I do is to run the snow blower again. And again. And again.

    On mine, that thing on the draft tube is a metal mesh filter. Its probably there to keep dust out of the crankcase and condense oil vapors into drips, but I think mine works best as a mouse deflector.

    Well, at least you can't see all that red dirt!

    I have 6 volt halogen headlights that are as bright as modern 12 volt cars use. Volkswagens used them through the sixties and they are not expensive or hard to get.

    I kind of excited for you too, Ed. You've got a lot of work ahead of you, but all the little hard-to-find parts seem to be there. Widow and door handles and hardware, door trim, good dash parts, it'll be fun watching it come back to life for you. Right offhand, you only need a horn ring, and that shouldn't be a problem.

    We're running out of corners to stand in.

    Seriously, yours is a good suggestion, I am just very warped.
  16. Niel Hoback
    Thank you.

    If it were inside the cover it would disintegrate and end up in the oil pick-up screen.
  18. Niel Hoback
    Trying hard not to comment on that last post.
  19. Niel Hoback
    He's lucky, my furd six poked a rod out the side of the block and it wasn't even trying.

    My 46 P-15 parts book doesn't show that, but I believe it goes outside the cover directly behind the pulley/vibration damper. It keeps dirt from the seal surface.

    That guy is living dangerously revving a ford like that while standing next to it.
  22. Niel Hoback
    But where's the ignition switch??
  23. Niel Hoback
    Geez, there's a plastic wiper knob, too!
  24. Niel Hoback
    Hey, everybody!!! He's got a clock in there !!!! Two bullseye headlight, too. Good job Ed, Nice car there, get ready for some fun. Welcome aboard.
  25. Niel Hoback
    That kinda looks like a little Studebaker engine.
