Yes. I have a couple of them. The company has stated that the original master mold, or whatever, was broken and there wasn’t enough demand, so they stopped making them. Every once in a while one will show up. I’ve only seen about three in the last 7 or 8 years.

On my 50, the shock studs are on the Spring perches. I had to have new spring perches welded onto the new axle. I couldn't find any that already had the right shock stud built-in, so I had to have shock studs welded to the new spring perches to imitate the old set up. I tried to use the lower spring plates from a P15 That have the shock stud built-in, and the position just didn't work because of the upper shock mount position on a 50. Depending on the year you have, there might be different solutions.

I used one from a 60s Plymouth Belvedere. It seemed to work ok. Works with a standard size clutch disc. I’m using an A833 trans with OD, which requires a 23 spline disc. I had the diaphragm pressure plate in for a little hole and removed it. I was having some problems with the trans install. I only went back to the stock lever style because I needed to narrow down some issues. I had too many changes going on at once. You’re supposed to remove the over center spring, and adjust the clutch accordingly. I still have the diaphragm style in my garage and I’ll swap it back in if I ever have to remove that transmission again. That thing is heavy.

He and I have the same manual. It only shows the parts for the 49/50 deluxe and special deluxe and what looks like a 53. No pic of the parts for the p15.

This and the button on top are the only parts he has. I feel like there should be something isolating the ring from the tri-bar piece. There spring underneath the tri bar.

Does anyone have a pic of the inner parts of a p15 horn ring? one of our club members horns is in constant on. I think he may be missing internal parts. thanks. -Phillip

Hey! Fall is almost here. Plymouth Owners Club Southern California is going to be meeting at a Cars and Coffee event in Chino Hills on November 5th. This is not a “Plymouth only” event. All makes welcome.. Drive ‘‘em if you Got ‘em! Hope to see you there. www.pocsocal.com

Thanks Sniper. I tried to test fit a 3/4-16 because that was the finest thread I could find at the local hardware store. I’ll keep my eye out for a 20.

I have a 1950 Plymouth with a steering box from a 49. I have the 11/16-20 steering wheel nut but it doesn’t fit the old steering shaft from the 50 that was in there, or the 49 shaft i installed. It’ll thread about three turns and then it feels like it’s tearing up the threads. Is there a unique size for the 49/50? I’m not sure taking a die to it to rethread it is a good idea. does anyone know the actual size and pitch? i can’t seem to find an answer using the search function.

I think everyone should build their car the way they want. This is for a friends car, not mine. I don't have any interest in a bowtie anything… But, since he is interested in going that route, I'd rather have him with a Plymouth on the road with a bowtie engine than a plymouth at the crusher, or stuck in a garage. I know the parts can be fabricated, but a kit takes out some of the guess work, because it's already done for you. If he had a kit delivered to his house, I'd be more likely to have the car on the road sooner than later. I know these old mopar cars don't get a lot of love and aftermarket support. Just throwing it out there to help him out

Since Butch's cool stuff has gone out of business, does anyone have a lead on an engine mount kit that will fit a bow tie 283 into a 52 Belvedere?

Thanks for the post Tony! Hope to see everyone out at the next one. Check out the Plymouth Owners Club Southern California website www.pocsocal.com

Did this 2-2-349 bolt to the transmission side? I’m going to have a driveshaft made with a ford Ranger rear end on one end and a stock trans on the other but I know they make it for me with a ball and trunnion on the trans side.

Has anyone used a diaphragm style clutch to replace their old lever style? Do you have a part number?I know there is one out there somewhere because I had one on an old P20 engine. My friend has it in their car now but I can’t find any real details to buy another one. I think it’s a 10” vs my stock 9 1/4, and my flywheel has two bolt patterns. Stock clutch cover fits the smaller pattern. looks like there’s a part number in this old picture, but it’s hard to make out.
