  1. Is the rear bumper the long one piece?? Really parallel bars, or bumperettes. Would you sell the bumper ? Ship to USA? Thanks in advance. Tom tdugger@hotmail.com
  2. I may have accidentally deleted any email that you may have sent Elder brain . You can call me at 205-910-0867 central daylight time. Or email tdugger@hotmail.com. In my garage. I can send some pictures . Had a couple of days of health issues
  3. I think that I have one . It would require complete rebuild. May not be usable. I will be out of town until Thursday 7 / 19. Tom. Tdugger@hotmail.com
  4. Did you get my reply on your parts wanted ad. Shouldn't they be 19inches. What metal parts are you missing to allow new wood spokes to be used?? Where are you located? Tom
  5. What metal exactly are you missing? Shouldn't they be 19 inch? Tom
  6. Do you know if they are the same as victory 6? If so I have some. Canyou post pictures
  7. Anyone have one of these attaching bolts that hold the roadster top frame to the body? Thanks Tom
  8. Anyone know where I might find one of these? It mounts on the cowl and the hood rod go into it . Thanks Tom
  9. Congratulations on your 90th. Happy Birthday Jack!! Tom Dugger
  10. Any luck with your wheels? I had no idea that if you post in two forums you get separate content. I need some of those victory 6 parts
  11. Do I need to remove the ball gizmo on the bottom of my shifter before I have it plated?? Anyone know how to get the shifter forks / shifter plate apart so I can reassemble to shifter ? Some kind of press? Magic?? Thanks Tom
  12. I notice Myers shows out of stock for this item. They are really your only chance of finding this part . I looked for years for something to substitute on my Victory six, and sorry to say there is no alternative. What I did for years was this: I just used a starter lead directly from the terminal on the starter (under the switch pictured) under my floorboards to a 6 volt universal starter solenoid, right up to the battery with the positive lead . You will have to wire a signal to engage the solenoid like a starter floor button or dash board push button. you need 6 volts on that signal circuit. A little push button under your seat frame would be discreet. There is plenty of room under the floorboards for the solenoid to be mounted. I ran mine this way for years until I finally bought the bullet and spent the $$$ fro the bit . Hope this help get you rolling, Tom
  13. Does anyone have any idea where I might get the parts to hold shut my rumble seat lid? I have nothing, but looks like on the lid I need a HANDLE, LATCHING MECHANISM, and some kind of CATCH mounted to the body. Does any one know if trunk lid equipment would work? What about DA or some Chrysler cross fit? Thanks Tom
  14. I agree with Jack M. It's a poor ground. Can you run an alligator clip directly to the body of the light socket and go to battery ground with the other end? I bet you a will get the result you desire. I've had the same thing happen many times with my trailer lights I e step on the brake and the tail light comes on. The brake light requires more juice to light. hope this helps Tom
  15. My Victory 6 has the round tube type radiator. Can anyone recommend which shop to send it to and what I might expect to pay?
  16. Robert passed away quite a few years ago. He would say from a combination of Canadian Healthcare and Diabetes. He was a great guy and I sure miss him. I think his son is listed in the back of the DBCN as a reproduction hubcap supplier. Try: Howard Donn 49 Norbett Drive Gormley, ON LOh 1GO 416-661-2268 dbc
  17. i am interested in the distributor. can u contact me phone or email please.' Tom Dugger tdugger@hotmail.com 205-910-0867
  18. The guy that rebuilt my engine glued a modern seal to the timing cover. you have to cut down the "harmonic/main" pulley to fit with a lathe. I think it is directional, in that , as the crank pulley turns the oil is swept back into the engine timing compartment. If you are planning on taking the cover off, it is a devil of a job. You must be careful not to let the generator gear falls out
  19. ahah. so what do you use for a spare.........no flats
  20. Anybody know exactly which tire brands will and will not fit in the fender wells on my Victory 6? For years I have heard that only Firestones will fit when inflated. I think I like the look of Lister brand tires. Unfortunately, once tires are mounted they cannot be exchanged.
  21. Jreeder41, hope I can help. Here's what you do: Go to Myers Early Dodge Parts homepage. Select catalog. Select literature. Look for John Bittance's book o Victory 6 restoration which is available on CD. 10 bucks is a steal. You may print the book. I just load the CD and use it with my laptop. Any Victory 6 owner needs this book. In the book John specifically addresses the distributor issue and offers some creative remedies which were previously published in the Dodge Brothers Club News when he was editor. (slant 6 distributor, etc) I am a victory 6 owner and I have been searching for the elusive cast iron distributor at swap meets for 18 years. No luck. I am planning on biting the bullet this spring and get the distributor from Myers. I have a parts car that has some kind of mystery distributor. IMHO the performance of this car is not likely to be significantly altered by any 6 cylinder distributor that you are likely to modify to make work. If you decide later to upgrade the car from a driver to a show car, you can pop for the big bucks and get the Aussie Repop from the VERY NICE PEOPLE who run Myers parts company. Good luck, Tom
  22. Chester Arkansas. Out west. I have been to Petit Jean Mtn swap meet a couple of times. It is a Duesey of a drive from North Alabama
  23. Anyone have any experience with Williamson Instrument in Arkansas? They have a good looking set of Victory 6 gauges on their home page .
  24. thanks for that good report Stewart. I cant wait to get that thing back on the road!!
