  1. I'm an old Dodge truck guy....have this 4 tonner and a few others...
  2. Really cool pictures of common by gone trucks! Beginning of the egg on the I-beam ad front axles.
  3. You got that right...no body parts anyway. You have to find NOS or good used. Chryslers always the most difficult to find parts for compared to Plymouth , Dodge or DeSoto. DeSoto 2nd toughest.
  4. Sitting a long time. Does the trans leak? Low fluid...no upshift.
  5. That Windsor has the engine all the flattie MoPar guys want ...the 265. The most valuable part of the whole car. It could also have the engine fed air cooled Fluid Torque Drive. Not so desirable....especially if leaking.
  6. Time go go inside of the trans I think. I think damaged input shaft blocker ring and sleeve....and or input shaft bearing. But you should hear that in nuetral idling.
  7. The imput shaft and gear on the end are one piece. 12 teeth count for 1946-48 M-5 transmissions. If it is worn so is the blocker ring and clutch sliding sleeve behind it. You need to look for damaged rounded and worn teeth carefully. Pull the 2 bolt plate at the rear of the transmission and pull out the tube screen filter and see what metal if any is trapped in it.
  8. It's all about how good the wood is... Good Pictures needed to advise.
  9. Mopar# right..1302965 Mopar# left.....1302966 Good luck.
  10. Maybe we want to talk about wheel and master cylinders for more fun on the Jag..😁 Maybe pour some brake fluid drier in the system..
  11. Those are tough ones to find though not ad bad as a 50 T&C. Years back someone reproduced the ribbed 49 T&C lenses. You mighy contact Dennis Bickford of Vintage Woodworks in New Mexico.
  12. There is a lot more than a battery to be concerned about waking this Jaguar up.😏
  13. There is a latching pawl...it's all explained in the shop manual.
  14. That hose looks really old...you had someone watching over you...
  15. Get the correct dis-assembly/assembly and stem clearance spec info from the factory 1941-48 Chrysler shop manual. manual.
  16. I don't think the seller really knows how to fix the problem...just another car he needs to get the most cash out and with the least effort and repair cost.
  17. "Then and Now Automotive" has quality kits or will rebuild your pump. They also show their rebuilders doing video's of most all fuel pumps.
  18. The main thing to make this car a wise purchase is if the buyer has enough skill/tools and $$ to get it back on the road. If not then he will have to pay the big bucks....this will kill the deal.
  19. I have done so many head bolt and head stud jobs... Seems o matter what penetrant you use, how much blue tip, careful firm hammering, time spent waiting ... you still cannot be sure of success getting a head bolt or stud out in one piece. Have driiled out and welded onto a lot of broken off bolts and studs over the years.
  20. A carburetored engine will start with out a choke. The choke helps it start quicker and run smoother when cold. The OP has breifly had this engine running. The choke is not his main problem at this point.
  21. Some sellers are so lazy. He says all it needs....a modulator and so easy to install...if true he should do it to make an easy quick sale. Jeez lazy sellers!
