  1. This one that should not be restored. Very few of these left. The seat would be easy to repair.
  2. If the oil reservoir behind the rear oil can not contain the oil flow it will overflow and drip out the bell housing. It may be the rear bearing is in poor shape the wear will allow excessive oil flow to the reservoir.
  3. Is there a reservoir between rear main and the flywheel? I found the oil flow to the reservoir was excessive and the return tube to the oil pan could pass the oil. As a result it overflowed and leaked out.
  4. Are these engines similar to the Dodge Bros engines?

    Brake lines

    I still have the original copper lines in my 29 Dodge Bros truck and they do not leak. There are many fittings in the lines. I have had problems with some of the brass fittings, They were cracked because of over tightening. Curious what brake fluid are you using. I believe the DOT 5 fluid tends to weep more than DOT 4.
  6. My tank is specifically for my truck. Be sure and match tank size required for the vehicle. Some engines have higher gas flow volume requirements. My DA6 truck needs longer 12 1/2 tank for more volume.
  7. These appear on this forum. Run an ad in the parts wanted section of this forum. I found mine on eBay. Mine is a 216AF.
  8. Could you post a picture. I am curious if they are Firestone rims.
  9. THIS IS AVAILABLE AT: https://restorationstuff.com.
  10. Not familiar with Buick trans but my 29 Dodge bros trans does not use seals in the trans. The trans used 600 wt oil. It appears almost like tar. Never had leakage if filled correctly.
  11. Great truck. Got any pictures to share.
