  1. We have a little over 36" here and I am tired of moving snow. Snow blower, quad with plow, shoveling. We are right above Scranton North of the mountain ridge if that is what you would call it and it dumped on us. I had at least another inch fall this afternoon while I was re-doing the driveway. Was tired yesterday. Today exhausted! Matt
  2. Not mine,but figured someone might be interested. https://allentown.craigslist.org/cto/6015473761.html
  3. Tonight went to the hardware store for fasteners to bolt down the rear tacking strip. Maybe tomorrow I will be able to start installing the strip across the tub. Started the old girl up and let her run for awhile. Purrs like a kitten!
  4. Daniel It has been suggested more than three times that you have one of your pumps rebuilt with "ethanol" resistant parts. You were advised that this third pump would fail sooner or later....... I would suggest installing a rebuilt pump and the electric one for priming the carburetor after car sits awhile and on hot days. Will help overcome vapor-lock Matt
  5. I will see if I can take a picture of the wiring diagram this weekend. If you are checking the door switches with ohm meter, plunger out should read continuity and plunger in should read open. Matt
  6. Dr J pulling the head is not rocket science and is easily reinstalled with new gaskets. Look at this as a learning experience.
  7. Daniel take one of your extra pumps and send it out to be rebuilt. You will thank us later. The fuel "will " destroy the one you have on there because the material the diaphram is made of will be destroyed by the newer gas. (Ethanol) Matt
  8. Daniel I used a transmissin jack I purchased from. Harbor Freight. It has a chain that attaches around the transmission and has a nice angle adjustment for taking out the transmission. I also used a floor jack and a wooden block across the oil pan to stabilize the engine when removing the transmission. Matt
  9. Daniel please don't work under your cars with the cinder blocks. I have seen these crumble and loads shift. I would hate to imagine being trapped or crushed under a Buick. If I can find them, I will post pictures for you of when I changed out my tranny on my 56' Saludos Matt
  10. Heads up. If you go through Vermont, and then try to title in PA, they will check and see if that VIN has ever been registered in PA. They will not issue another title. Matt
  11. Do like I do and take them by a senior living facility or a veterans center. They love it and keeps their minds busy Matt
  12. How bout the rear? Just need the the gears. I think they should be 3.60 gears??
  13. Yes. I will get back with you sometime soon. Cannot get at the car at this timez Thanks Matt
  14. The " not like " button would be appropriate.
  15. I should have both items. I know I have two. Will have to check on the glove box door. Have some, not sure where I have them. Matt
  16. On my 47' convertible, error almost won!
  17. Looking for a exhaust manifold for a friend. His is warped and cracked.
  18. is everyone logged on directly to forums.aaca.org or is there another way to post? I am using that, directly from Safari on my iphone. I am also currently connected to my home wifi. I haven't tried posting pictures from my phone without the wifi. Will attemp tomorrow
  19. And here I take my old Bugles to several senior care places for the guys to read. Guess am missing out on the big money
  20. I backed the 47' outta da garage and dusted her off. Let her run for about 30 minutes and put her back away. 60 deg f in the garage so she is fine. Forgot to take pictures
