I’m considering buying a 1953 Studebaker Champion Starlight Coupe.
c49er replied to Matt129's topic in General Discussion
Anyone hearing that a Studebaker hit 335 MPH has to make that Starlight cpe worth at least $5500.00 Those are cool looking cars. Wish I had one. Buy it. -

Those 5 bolt X 20" rims are used all the way up into the 60's on Dodge, Ford,Studebaker, International and many other 1-1/2 to 2 ton medium duty trucks. Older junk yards might have them... I do too come on over to the Seattle area! -

1948 Chrysler New Yorker Fluid Drive Transmission issue
c49er replied to Tony Concepcion's topic in Technical
Two things as mentioned above are most important for these "Hydraulically Operated" M-5 transmissions to auto up shift... 1st....idle speed must be close to 450 rpm.. 2nd...transmission 10W oil full to the bottom threads of the filler plug hole on the passenger side of the case. With these two items assured of.... With the relay fuse out and a quick road test starting out in high range... Accelerate up to 20mph and let off the gas for say 2 seconds. The M-5 transmission should instantly click/clunk into 4th gear...that's it. If it doesn't auto upshift there is an internal transmission hydraulic oil pressure issue or a internal mechanical problem... -
Pressure bleeding with the older style ball type tank. It is so fast and positive bleeding, flushing out a system compared to the vacula.. I have both...I prefer the steel pressure tank type using the shop air hose to pressure it up. The modern plastic garden sprayer pump up tanks are slow and clunky to use .... their adapters are cheap and can leak. Have done many many system bleeds and flushes. JMO...

1948 Chrysler New Yorker Fluid Drive Transmission issue
c49er replied to Tony Concepcion's topic in Technical
The "Hydraulically Operated" M-5 Chrysler transmission if in good operating condition can be checked to see if it will auto upshift.... By just removing the 30 amp trans relay fuse...just drive off and imediately let off the gas...should instantly upshift. It will not downshift at any time with the fuse removed untill at a complete stop with the clutch in. Do not back up during this test with the fuse removed. This is only to test the hydraulic upshifting of the M-5 transmission. As mentioned idle speed and oil level needs to be proper. -
That's right...studs into the coolant on the Hemi's. Use sealant or Locktite when re-installing the studs.

Super great price for a rare Stromberg carb!👍 -
Simple answer....no.. not available anymore. He passed away quite a few years ago. There was and maybe still is someone selling those mirrors. Dennis Bickford in New Mexico sells T&C Chrysler parts and would know.

48 Chrysler New Yorker
c49er replied to 24Chry48's topic in Chrysler Automobiles and Parts - Buy/Sell
This is how the E-brake cable is mounted to the "Hydraulically Operated" M-5 transmission on the 1946-48 Chrysler and DeSoto transmissions... -
Above points are 100% right on. But another cause of upshift and downshift trouble is sticky oil contaminated governor points...clean them with only contact cleaner...points are plated with silver. Have seen and dealt with this issue many times. Do the required minimal maintenance on the M-6 transmissions for trouble free driving. "My MoPar".com has all the service films on the Gyro-Matic M-6 trans service.

GMC 316ci. 1956 engine mains are 2.498" - 2.499" Rods 2.248". This info out of the 1957 MoTor's truck manual.

The 145" WB Crown Imperials used the Ausco- Lambert disc brakes as on my 50 T&C. Also had vented rims. Most were custom built for these buyers. Sadly very few left and not much appreciation for them.
