The number is stamped on it and I will try for a better close up of it, camera is not good on close ups. When you say angle I am not sure what you mean. The pedals are both straight without any bend either side. Peter

This is photo of the 797919 I have it is the bottom one, top one is after market replacement.

Thanks hwellens, does your book say what size they might be. I was guessing 71/2"

I will try my technology skills tonight.

Thanks Viv, I just need someone to look through their shed and sell me a pair they don't need. Peter

I just had a look in my Desoto book and a 797919 is for 1936 S1 Desoto Sed another book says 36 Plym P3 and 36 Dodge. 745978 (brown) is for Desoto S3 Canadian built and S5. 745979 Desoto S3 Limo, 37-38 Ply, Dodge & Chrys. Let me know which one you are after, I may have a 797919 but it is black.

Hi, I am looking for a set of headlight reflectors for my 36 Desoto Airstream. The headlights I have were converted to sealed beam and I want to go back to original. I was sold a boxed set of two Do-Ray light Co reflectors which were to fit, but 8" seems to be too large. Any information on size and type would be appreciated, I cannot find anything. I am thinking they should be 7 1/2" and they were Rite Way. If someone has 1936 Mopar ones that suit, I am very interested.

Yes, the top left seems to break maybe due to small moving parts and I like yourself have a number of broken ones. Maybe the top middle one was introduced as a replacement due to the breaks, being solid and having no moving parts. Still like to identify bottom centre ones car with a view of finding a new home, I think the retracting dovetail was to be some sort of improvement that is why I thought after 1936..

Thanks, they measure about 1 1/2" L x 1 3/8" W x 9 /16" H at back high point and have SP 107 stamped on back.

Hi, I have a couple of striker plates which were found in a box in my shed. I was wandering if someone with a little bit of knowledge about these could put a year and vehicle to the ones I have a ? against. Top LHS 1936 Desoto. (after 2 more) The top middle is solid and no moving parts - 36 Dodge? The top RHS 37-39 Dodge, Plymouth & Chrysler ? (2 NOS for sale) Bottom LHS is like Desoto but extended at bottom 36 Chrysler ? (will sell the 2 I have if I can get the Desoto replacements) Bottom middle NOS - 1939 ? (for sale) Bottom RHS - Ford Latch ? Any assistance appreciated as they may help someone with their restoration.

Ruben you are the best, my US friend. Great to hear from you hope all is well. Let me know $ and I will send through. Regards, Peter

Looking for one of each of these headlight parts. Desperate for lower one, I have been told they were used in Canadian models, not sure. Any clues would be appreciated. Peter

You might need to post a photo to help. Peter

Thanks Curti, will do.

Looking for one headlight bolt spring and mounting clip like in photo. Also require 7 5/8" reflectors for 1936 Mopar. Peter

Looking for headlight reflectors for my 1936 Desoto they are 7 5/8" does anyone have 1 or a set for sale, I have good set approx. 8" which I purchased and were in incorrect box. - Peter

Looking to purchase 2 Headlight reflectors for my 1936 Desoto, I assume Chrysler, Dodge and Plymouth would also suit. The bucket opening is 7 5/8". Had purchased a good set a few years ago but they are 8", the seller included side of original box which said Do-Ray Lamp Co no 96 and it said fits 1936 Plymouth P1 and P2, Desoto, Dodge, Studebaker, Nash 36-37, Dodge Truck and Plymouth truck. I might be wrong but I think his boxes may have been mixed up. Peter.

Hi, does anyone know where to get felt dust seals from. I had bought some recently but they turned out to fit 1936-42 Dodge 1-830707 LHS. The part number I believe is 632174 and is to suit frame on RHS. Thanks Peter

Do you have the studs that are used to hold breather pipe bracket to side of engine. Peter

Looking for 1 x 1 3/8" brake cylinder cup expander for my 1936 Desoto. Also looking for pistons to suit.

Thanks Steve, very keen. I would need them to go to the exporter i use. Would pay for potage and package. Could you check overall length again. Peter

Would they suit 1936 Desoto, Peter

Thanks, i will try the soaking. I had undone the nut and i was not prepared to twist too much. I am making 2 out of 3 i have. I have rotated the inside part by undoing bolts so that where it attaches to the horn bracket on gaurd support it is correct. Just another quick question what size are the bolts holding horn bracket to guard bracket looking at existing holes the bolts may be an over design. I may post photo so we are on the same page, Peter.

Is there a trick on getting the trumpet to unscrew out of horn. I have seen a few where people attempt this and twist the hell out of the trumpet. I am re-building and need to flip it around half a turn so it faces the vent grill. Mine looks to have white stuff in the thread which may be some kind of lock tight goo used back in the day not sure. Any help or pics greatly appreciated.

Looking for a photo of the spring / clip layout for a 1936 Desoto bucket. I have a few flat clips and ones with springs and not sure what the layout is. Is there an easy way to clean them up for re-use. Thanks Peter
