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.

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.

I need a leaf spring. It's 35" long from center eye to center eye. -

The crank, block, cam and connecting rods are original. Everything else was replaced with NOS or NORS parts. I thank everyone out there that had the parts available to sell. -

After 25 years of wanting a Dremel I finally broke down and bought a knockoff version from oreillys. I regret waiting so long to get one. I was able to clean up all the contact points. -

It's amazing to see something come back to life. Especially when the contact points just need a little cleaning up. -

Finally put the engine back in. -

This was taken a few months ago. I've put wide white walls on it even though it was unheard of for a Plymouth. Plus I buffed out the paint. Whoever owned it before used a paint brush to add another, darker shade of blue. Not bad for a car that's been sitting since 1965. -

This was taken in 1995 when I brought home my first car. -
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

Does anyone have a clue where a fella can find nos or nors headlight sockets for a 1936 Plymouth? They're the 3 contact point style for the headlights and 2 contact points for the single taillight. God Bless America

There is a black and white original photo of a 1937 Plymouth engine on allpar.com which shows a black block and silver head.

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.
