  1. My Autolite Distributer has an arrow head stud that the electrolock cable grabs. Inside the cable end are two curved brass jaws that resist removal of the stud.. Once apart I had the stud re shaped to a shallow egg shape instead of the Blunt ended arrow head shape. Easier to remove cable end for adjustments.
  2. Get measurements from hub cap !! then let us know size you need
  3. Essex 4 cyl cars had a chamfered top lip on body and doors.
  4. In 2022, at Hershey, my 101-year-old Hershey friend bought a beautiful 1939 Plymouth 4 door Convertible. Still driving it in Tenn. Same make car sold as he entered WW2, always looked for one after all the years!!!
  5. 1963 and every year since. During Covid drove to my. empty space, Met a Hershey friend and our wives met for the first time. This was 60 in a row

  7. Leonard spark plug 14 B Buick 14 mm head 1938 to 1942, for fouling condition ///might be a very hot plug to get rid of oil burning// Only listing for this plug in my copy of a 1946 Leonard 1946 listing.
  8. If I can identify your needs more accurately....................... what exact model # and engine. I'm looking in my old Hollanders and it lists interchanges by model and engine. With the info, I may provide other years and cars using interchangeable parts to help you.
  9. Hershey ! Every year since 1963, Lots of others we have enjoyed from east coast to west coast. But only go back to Hershey, every year.

  14. Well, not 28, but body style similar to 1930 Hudson except for: Door hinges exposed Door window glass, severely tapered, Hudson's were rectangular. Rear window not Oval Highly raised bead shape around window reveals. No raised bead on splash apron ( between body and running board.) Different spring attachment to LR frame. ///////////////////// Similarities to Hudson: Raised triangular shaped character line separating upper and lower body. 1930 only Door handle mounted in center of character line 29 and 30 Brown taillight lens used by Hudson in 28 and 29 not 30 or 31 Headlight bucket appears shaped like 30 Hudson But not a Hudson that I can see. Would like to know what it is too.
  15. Have him look at rear spring support castings. for stamped serial number. Post it here, this will help ID year.
  16. 1927 Essex made by Hudson. Essex chassis, look at right rear spring "dumb iron". Serial number should be stamped there. The gas tank cover looks 26 but rear fenders seem curved with no character lines, perhaps 1927 and later. Front spring dumb iron is 1927 or earlier. Spare tire cups last used in 1927
  17. I have a chart comparing plugs, no car models. Includes EDISON If you have a plug, perhaps I can tell you it's comparable for AC , Champion? This may be helpful by using another chart to check uses.
  18. My Hudson Essex cars all had raised metal around studs at top of block. Counter sink holes in the head for studs. I use a 45 deg. 45 deg angle counter sink. The likely hood of gasket pinching thus allowing clearance for exhaust gas or coolant to migrate. Are you sure of the temp measuring device ? Best wishes
  19. My maternal Grand father, in the US Army, in the Philippine-American War 1899. I was there in the US Navy, 60 years later. That was 64 years ago..................... We must remember that many gave all...................
  20. My Hollander Manual shows 1936 Olds 6 and 8 rear ends as interchangeable. No Buick cross info. No info on front drums in book this is a early 1937 book and info ends with 1936. Showes no other GM, or other interchange for rear end. Best wishes.
  21. I specked 8 mil plastic under 40 X 64 storage barn. I am sure reduced moisture wicking up thru floor.
