I am sure this was expensive, However it is money well spent. Who wants to loose a engine or have trouble on the road over radiator problems. One less thing to worry about.

Hello My Studebaker friends. I am looking for a 1922 Studebaker Big 6 transmission to use as a spare. What have you? Think Spring. Don in central Ohio 740-816-4284

I have found "Real World" experience to be helpful. Sometimes the MFG know so much about their product they overlook some details.

I am looking forward to see your future progress.

I would buy a owners manual off E-bay. It is full of important information and includes a wiring diagram. Remember the 1928 Q Plymouth used the Maxwell engine which is very different from the 1929/32 Plymouth 4's.

Try and Google Rapid CNC. I believe they make custom rag joints.

Nice work so far. I would secure the load down better and hold your speed down if your going very far.

They make a tool around $10. that has a cable and T-handle. You pass the cable through the hole in the rim and screw it onto the tire valve stem. It is used to pull the valve stem through the rim hole. They are easy to find online. Slow and easy is the word. I put the tube into the tire casing then the flap and install the rim last.

1947 Hudson rare find - $7,500
DFeeney replied to Leif in Calif's topic in "Not Mine" Automobiles For Sale
I just did a early Hudson clutch plate replacement. I found the parts through the Hudson club and was able to complete the task with out any problems. Slow and easy is the word. -
The brackets on the front of the frame horns don't look Chrysler. Do you have a better picture of the device on the right front side of the frame. This would be a good clue.

In 1928/29/30/31/32 Plymouth used Carter Brass bowl carburetors. They had a lot of pot metal and usually beyond repair. Your current carb should work for what you want to use it for. You should receive additional information from the forum members.

I would post this on the Mo Par page.

I would post on the Ford page.

I believe the copper brake lines used back in the day were of a high grade material such as refrigeration copper lines, not your standard hardware store copper. I have had many early Chrysler products over the years with no leakage problems. Your lines could be damaged at the joints.

If you Google 1929 Plymouth distributor drive housing you will find information on current reproductions.

Pot metal (not really good on some components)
DFeeney replied to dodge28's topic in General Discussion
A person told me once "Early" pot metal was made the same way "Fig Newtons" are made today in bakeries. At the end of the day all the different left over dough is mixed together and made into Fig Newtons. By the early 30's they were looking more closely at the mixture. I have seen many early pieces of die cast in remarkable shape. I think it had something with the Zinc content used that particular day. -
I believe several people would be interested if a casting was made.

DFeeney replied to dodge28's topic in General Discussion
It is my general observation that around 1931 the pot metal was made different and seems to last much better. Most of the earlier pot metal turned into what I would call baked clay over time. -
I am looking for a 1928/29 Hudson engine/transmission if anyone has one for sale. Don in central Ohio.

Welcome to the forum, Good Luck on your endeavor.

When Summer returns let it set on the patio and let the Sun and rain work on it.
