rocketraider Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Nice survivor! I wish I had the talent and time to take on a 30s or 40s car, because I sure do like their looks.I've noticed we have a fair number of '36 owners here now. GREAT!

36oldz Posted February 5, 2008 Author Share Posted February 5, 2008 Jay,see if gas is leaking from small hole in bottom of pump.The hole is there so when the diaphram cracks you can see a drip.Does the car have a fuel filter? You might check it especially if it sputters at higher rpm. The fuel pump kits are dirt cheap,I just bought one on ebay for 5.00 bucks.Just keep checking ebay for tail lense,I seen 2 on there within last couple of days. Had any luck on sidemounts or visor? Keep us posted! Thanx,Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
36oldz Posted February 6, 2008 Author Share Posted February 6, 2008 Jay, just seen (2) tail light lenses on ebay. Type in oldsmobile then go too vintage section. Theres still 5 days left on them. See ya, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

36oldz Posted February 8, 2008 Author Share Posted February 8, 2008 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest elmo39 Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
36oldz Posted February 27, 2008 Author Share Posted February 27, 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
