I have a 1950 International L-122 pickup with badly scored front brake drums. These are the 6 lug type. Can anyone tell me the maximum diameter that would govern having them turned? Thanks.

Thanks very much. Now I know what to look for.

Could someone provide me with the correct Anco or Trico part numbers for 1939 Hudson Pacemaker windshield wiper arms, or at least a description of the type and size? Thanks very much.

Thanks Joe. Read the thread two or three time. Reminds me of an ole Blues singer.....Muddy Waters.

I have a 1939 Hudson Pacemaker. A previous owner has the electrical all screwed up, mainly the lights. Today, I finally got around to trying to figure out what he did and how best to correct. In the process, I discovered that the battery is connected with negative ground. My shop manual is not specific for 1939, but previous years of Hudsons show positive ground. The car starts and runs fine. What should I do? I want the car to be as original as possible, but also subscribe to "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." Thanks

Looking for the internal parts for a 1935 Ford headlight. Don't need the whole bucket, just reflector with socket and pigtail. Used or repro ok. Thanks.

I'm looking for the gas pedal assembly that bolts to the floor board for a 1950 Plymouth coupe. Thanks

Looking for the accelerator rod that attaches to the accelerator pedal for a 1938 Pontiac 6-cylinder. Would buy entire linkage assembly if necessary. In lieu of the actual part, would greatly appreciate a photo, drawing, or sketch of same.

When I push the starter pedal on my 1937 Plymouth pickup, it goes in partway and then stops. The lever under the hood doesn't get far enough to hit the starter button on the starter. It seems that the gear on the starter is not meshing with the flywheel and just jams I've tried spinning the starter to get the gear in a different position and have cranked the engine by hand to get the flywheel in a different position, but nothing seems to work. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

Found this great video which explains everything.

I have a 1950 IH L-122 pickup with a leaking rear brake cylinder. Took the wheel off, but can't figure out how to get the drum off. Do I have to pull the whole axle out first? Photo attached. Really need some help here. Thanks.

This question actually applies to any vintage car converted to radial tires, but it's my '41 Olds that prompted the question. What tire pressure should I use? The recommended pressure in the owner's manual is obviously for the old bias ply, tube-type tire, but what do you do if it's been converted (by previous owner) to radials with tubes? Thanks

I have to replace one of the lines to the oil filter in my stock '37 Desoto Business Coupe. The existing lines are 3/16". Is this adequate, or while I'm at it should I increase the size? Thanks

PM sent.

Here are two photos, front and back.
