Jay, pump is fairly easy too rebuild. REALLY PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TOO ORIENTATION OF THE TWO SMALL SPRINGS&PLASTIC PLATES!!!! I tried too pay close attention when I took mine apart and still screwed it up.Luckily I have a service manual so I had too stare at it for awhile to figure it out.Thanx for the websites, I've bought some items from Fusick before but the other site I'd never seen.They have some neat items! I should have my car back together soon (pending food,gas,kids,WIFE !!!ect.)so I'l get some pictures posted. Talk too you later,Mike

Hi all
i dont know if this is the right place , but i am restoring a 1935 6 cyl oldsmobile and need a hood rocket mascot /emblem . i dont live in the US and am having problems finding one does any one know if anyone is reproducing them ,any help or leads wil be appreciated

36oldz · February 27th, 2008

jay,hope that fixes the problem.I just finished all new brake shoes, wheel cylinders,ss lines and master cylinder on mine.I went with the new dot5 silicone brake fluid since everything was new.It's not suppost too draw moisture like dot3&4.It also has a higher boiling point,but don't think that's an issue with drum brakes.The biggest excitment was having my 11 year old son help bleed the brakes.He was still better than my wife.NEVER HAVE YOUR WIFE HELP BLEED YOUR BRAKES!!!!!! I finally found that black trim for the ashtray I've been searching for,from a guy in new mexico.I should have my car ready soon,so when the weather breaks I'l be ready too go.Can't wait! I've only driven it once around the block when I bought it in nov. Talk too ya later, Mike
