Are you talking about a hot vulcanizing? If so, where can you get the new valve stems that can be vulcanized into the tube? I have a couple of tubes that had the stems break, but the tubes are still good. I know glued stems can be purchased.

Spinneyhill Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 (edited) I got them from the truck tire place that did the job. I think. 20+ years ago so a bit hazy. In fact they are brass with a 80o bend and the stem screws onto the base on the tube.

Larry, I bought this car in 2005 and finally got started doing something with it in March 2016. Hoping all is well with you and your family this holiday season, Derek ! I see that you have not been around here for a while. I think and wonder about your 1929 sedan frequently, plus those amazing tires are on my mind from time to time. Any progress ? - Carl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill - 29 Buick Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 You may have problems fitting a 700x20” into the wheel wells on the sidemounts. if they go in, one advantage will be that you may be able to see out of the sidemount mirrors.
