  1. Red and Black. I love that color combo.
  2. Says it runs and drives but could not back it out to get a picture of the front.
  3. Thank you all for the replies.
  4. I have one of the above and used it but it seems to let air in. That is why I am looking for a pressure bleeder.
  5. Anyone have a pressure brake bleeder to recommend to buy. Just for my backyard projects and maintenance. Thanks
  6. After I put in new pistons and rings and cleaning the oil pick up screen I took off the plate on the oil pump. Mine was in good shape so I took a piece of plate steel and sand paper and smoothed it flat. Then I packed the oil pump gears with vasilene with a after market gauge tubed in with dash gauge and just cranking it over I had about 15lbs of oil presssure. No plugs in. L-37.
  7. Thanks for the offer but trunk my lid is a L-37 and has a different light and handle. I got a air cleaner from French Lake auto parts
  8. In your second picture the clutch and brake has two holes. Mine was missing also. I bought the press in fittings for grease . Keep up the good work and pictures.
  9. Glad you are back working on the Olds. The L-37 humpback touring I bought 3 yrs ago came with a lot of parts off or missing. Your pictures are helping me. I did not run since 74. When I pulled the head there was no ridge on the cylinders but some broken lands on pistons. I got new pistons and rings cleaned the oil pic up screen and oil pump. Hooked up a oil gauge on fire wall and cranking with starter got 15 lbs. I put assy lube on everything. This year I didnt do anything do to back surgery. Keep up the good work.
  10. Cant help with your search, but if you join an Essex club, you should get some help there.
