Thanks to a fellow forum member that recommended George Asche I am all GOOD!!

thanks for all the help!! I am going with the diamond backs auburn deluxe

what kind of stickers?

Hello I am ready to put on a set of factory wire wheels on my Hudson and would like to run diamond back wide white radials I obviously need to run tubes and from what I have been reading they don't recommend running tubes in a radial? if so that hurts!! any ideas?

Just curious if there's any benefit of replacing my B&B carburetors on my 38 desoto with a pair of wa1 carbs?I have a set that are brand new The car is setup with an Edmunds dual carb intake.

contact info?

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL THE ARCHEOLOGICAL JUNKIES ON THIS FORUM AND OF COURSE A HAPPY NEW YEAR REMEMBER THE BARNS ARE NOT ALL CLEANED OUT SO KEEP DIGGING MY FRIENDS STEVE

Anybody put a disc brake conversion on your 38 DeSoto or something similar? If so was it worth the effort

sounds fun until you break down;-) I drove a car home from the Carlisle swap meet and halfway home it starting to run erratic I was able to limp it home 2nd purchase a few years later- 25 miles into the trip the ignition module crapped out hence my hesitation

Need to see a car in person before a purchase-too many wasted trips-thats why if you were closer I would be pursuing it Went to Boston to look at a 59 caddy-not quite as described, just got back from Long Island looking at a Hudson convertible - same deal

If this car was closer to New York I would certainly be chasing it man-oh-man I love it

Ok mechanical pump is on and works fine- electric is on a toggle if the other ever fails The only thing I think I need to do is put some kind of a tee so If I need the electric I can bypass the mechanical thanks for all the help

Ill measure tomorrow do you have a trans you want to sell? Steve

yup going to put the mechanical on tomorrow with an electric backup on a toggle

The pump is by the tank

OK fellas another dilemma When it rains it pours I replaced the electric 12 volt pump on my 38 desoto with a universal carter because the pump was too loud anyway, that pump lasted a day-so I put in another and that lasted the same-they are wired thru a relay-they have a filter on the inlet side of the pump-I also have a inline regulator installed-would running too low a pressure burn them out? I have it set on 2lbs or is it a china thing? the tank is new and it plastic so its not rust jamming the pump Thanks again for any insight

Put the new cylinders on and all is good I cant believe I would have defective cylinders

It was too short-I had this one welded and reinstalled on my car you are are good guy though the way you handled that sale Stev

I need to pay attention to what I write It didnt hold sorry New cylinders going on tomorrow

anyone?

That's exactly what I did and It held held the pressure

my guess is wheel cylinders-I disconnect the line to the cylinders pedal is up top-I connect them pedal sinks these are new cylinders-thoughts?

the shoe goes directly into the cylinders-there are no pins-all new lines to the rear-plenty of fluid when I bleed the rears-

absolutely
