    Gotta say, I find all the good parts on eBay anymore.  Haven't found a good part in the flea market in a number of years now.  But I sure like the idea of a pre-war swap meet.  If there are still enough parts out there, good parts, nos parts, then it's a great idea.

     

    I agree. I've noticed the good nos parts at the swap meet are mostly for cars I don't own. It's just that eBay kills the thrill of the hunt for nos & nors parts, but I have been able to find most of the parts for my project from it. 

  2. @TerryBond that was the story at Hershey last year. That was my first time visiting Hershey. Those jake legged repop side vendors  could've had their own field. Had enough of that crap. It's called eBay if you want that crap.

  3. Where does a guy go to buy that finely shredded straw-like substance used to insulate the floorboards? Plus the rubber/linoleum-like one piece floor mat? Does anyone have any leads of people in the 1930s floor mat business? This is going in a 1936 Plymouth. I'm not just sticking a piece of carpet down there. I want it done right they way it originally was. Thank you for any help.

  4. Does anybody know where a fella can find a NOS radiator for a 1936 Plymouth? I have two radiators that fit but they both are riddled with holes. I'm not made of money so anything expensive is out of the picture.

     

     

    Thank you.

  5. I just read this conversation in hopes to get me 1936 Plymouth headlights up n runnin... For future restorers reference I simply used a wire brush tip on a dremel to clean off the ALL contact points... The connectors are identical to that of a 1936 Dodge D2... With original cotton covered wires, bulbs that haven't been replaced since the '60s, I was able to get one headlight to work... Cross your fingers on the second one...  

     

    Take care

  6. Here's the deal. I bought an engine, transmission, radiator and rock guard under the impression that they were built for a 1936 Plymouth. Little did I know just because an engine comes out of a '36 doesn't necessarily mean it was built in '36. In other words I should have checked the serial number first. So now I have a running 1939 Plymouth engine for sale. Since I had the engine shipped from outside Atlanta to Oklahoma I must get exactly what I paid for it. I'm not making a profit here. I just need to break even. $700.00USD. The details about what you get. The engine, carb, air cleaner, front mount bracket and rock guard. The starter needs rebuilt/completed. If you would like to see it run go to YouTube and my channel is 'Jon Emberson'. Type '1939 Plymouth engine' 9188862469.
