grubin,
One word of caution, look at the car in person or find someone that knows about structural wood car bodies. You should verify the car has good wood. Doors solid - no movement at the hinges. Check the bottom of the A pillar at the sill. The wood is available from several suppliers but it is a lot of work to replace.

Ken,
I just joined the Dixie Chapter this month but have not gone to a meeting or function as yet so I probably won't be of much help. It looks like a good chapter.
Where in Atlanta are you located?

There are lots of parts available for 31 Chevrolets. Depending on the model some are harder to find than others but many parts are found everyday on the VCCA forum mentioned above.
Check out the Chevrolet parts site The Filling Station.
Many VCCA members also have parts, I bet I have 5,000 lbs of 31 Chevy parts. Don't give up too soon.

A friend of mine in the VCCA has a 33 Standard engine he would sell. Down side is it is in California. If you still need one send me a pm and I will pass along his contact info.

Can you post the bearing part number from the box or rim of the bearing?
Thanks

Standard or Master?

Glenn,
I have an owners manual you can have for the postage but it is not in good shape. Okay for the information but someone tore most of the cover off to pass on insurance info after an accident. The next page has the other drivers info written on it. Let me know.

Bob,
Is the 1990001 a carb number or a number on a sub assembly? Most Delco Rochester part numbers start with a 7 or a 17. I can not find your number in any of my old books.

Don,
Thank you, I sent you a message.

Thanks for checking. Do you know who might be making these conversions still?

Thanks for the info. Looks like the Bob's part ends at the 1930 application but I may be able to find someone to make something from the drawing and instructions if Mark can't find his.
Thanks again

Thanks for the info/warning and checking on the part.

I can feel a little play in the fan hub and I can't find any details in repairing it in the manual. I did notice the gear in Bob's catalog. Is the gear the usual suspect on taking the play out? Any other parts I should source?
Thanks and any advice on making this repair is appreciated.

It looks like a Corvair pump to me. Any numbers on it?

The alloy body tag reads 8-66-S

Did anyone take over Joe's 31 parts business and if so what is the contact info.
Thanks
Dave

Send me a PM with your address and payment terms. Do you have one with Buick script?

Could not edit in time. The diameter measurement is 1 3/8. If the shoulder is 1 3/8 it would work as well.
-
Yes that is very similar except for the shoulder right below the cap. Is the distance between the bottom of the shoulder and the top of the locking ears 3/8" and the diameter of the bottom screwed on cap 1 7/8" ? If so it may work. Thanks for the help.
Dave
-
Someone must have lost the key and tried driving a screw driver through the lock cylinder. The key cylinder and die cast lock are ruined. The part I need is 5/8" deep and 1 3/8" in diameter.
Thanks

As Bernie said they were excellent shocks. They even had a Genetron "sp" gas bag inside that expanded when hot... They went with the Big D in about 76 and many other brands after that. The Pleasurizer was the best and much better than the Monroe or Gabriel of the period.
I would not be afraid to use them but the Genetron may not expand like it use to
-
The top one is a 31 Chevrolet Cabriolet. Looks like the fold down windshield has been removed for more speed.

The uy6 crosses to AC plug M8, and that is what my old AC book shows for that application. M8 as far as I can remember was not a resistor plug.

What is the tag/part number of the distributor you need?
1939 Chevrolet serial number locations

The serial number was not stamped on the frame of 1939 Chevrolets. As you probably know there is an engine serial number stamped on a pad on the fuel pump side of the motor but it does not relate to the serial number.
