Reze

Last ride for 2016. Merry Christmas to all of you.

I have this little switch under the dashboard. Does anyone know what that is for?

here is a close picture of the freeze plug. i repaired the starter. i'm happy i solved that problem. now i still have no oil pressure. i disconnected the hose of the oil pressure gauge, but there comes no oil when i try to turn the engine. i removed the oil pump and fill the pump with oil. still no oilpressure. i tried the same with the other pump, but i do not have oil pressure. any idea, what i should try next? i'm happy for any suggestion.

hello everybody i did some progress on the plymouth during the past months. got the motor in, after some engine work. i painted the firewall and did many small things. yesterday i tried to start the engine, but i could not get oil pressor. after i tried 2-3 times, the 12V battery was discharged , and i also think i need a new starter. he blocked sometimes. i will try to make it work with the hammer. but i'm sure i need a new one. can enyone recommend me an new starter? sorry for my english, i hope you understand what i want to tell you . Here are some pictures of the progress. greetings andré

Hello all. My name is André, and i live in Switzerland. The original 218 engine of my 1947 Plymouth special deluxe is broken. My plan is to install a 230 engine out of a 1950 Dodge with fluid drive, and keep the bellhouse and standart 3-speed transmission of my Plymouth. I 've heard there are problems with flywheel and crankshaft. Does someone knows if this is possible? Thanks in advance

I have joined both too.

With removing the front and hood , i could pull motor and transmission.
