Hi Dave Many thanks for your reply. My car has chassis number 7745. The engine number is 31748 and at the top it says 5/5 1924 in a sheet metal screwed to the cylinder head. I have also found a number that sits under the driver's seat which I assume is the body number B357 (See photos) I have been in contact with Stellantis Historical Services at the same adress so it remains. My question to them was when my car was manufactured but they could not answer that, because they did not have such information before 1930. I will contact them again but am grateful if I could get a copy of the instruction manual you have. It should be possible to send the pictures in a few emails. hansson.hans.bertil@gmail.com Thanks also for the information about the oil filter, I will try to find something like that for my car. Is it possible that there is any such oil filter housing to be found in the United States? Is there any company in the U.S. that specializes in parts for Chrysler? In my car there is a keyhole behind the gear lever. I guess if I had a key, it would have been possible to lock the gear lever in some position? (See photo) Best regards Hans-Bertil

Thanks for the info. It was very good to find out that the filter is fragile. Have you replaced the original filter with a new one that sits on the original copper tubes, or where does the new one sit? Hans-Bertil

A little more questions about my Chrysler B-70 1924. (My brakes and the water pump are now ok again.) Unfortunately I don't have an instruction manual for the car, but I saw that it has a replaceable oil filter. My question is, are these filters obtainable? If not, how do you, who have these cars, do with your filters, can they be washed? I have not yet set out to disassemble the box it is apparently in, does anyone have a tip on how to access the filter. What do you need to remove to access it? Is there any instruction manual to get hold of, perhaps as a reprint? One more question. The car sounds pretty much in the gearbox in 1 and 2nd gear. It also sounds a some in the third but much less. It rattles in the box, you could say. I imagine it normally sounds some in the gearbox when the car is running, or what is your opinion in te matter? Best regards from Sweden Hans-Bertil

Thanks for the info. I'll check my wheel cylinders next week. Right now I'm working on the water pump that's leaking water. Here, too, a new gasket is needed. Yours sincerely, Hans-Bertil

Tack för svaret. Jag hittade gummipackningen till huvudcylindern 1 5/8" här i Sverige, så den är nu utbytt. Nu återstår det att titta på hjulcylindrarna också innan jag börjar köra med bilen Thanks for the reply. I found the rubber gasket for the master cylinder 1 5/8" here in Sweden, so it is now replaced. Now it remains to look at the wheel cylinders as well before I start driving with the car

Thanks for the help I got it loose Now I need a gasket that is 1 5/8 "(approx. 41.3 mm) Does anyone have any tips on where I can buy such a master cylinder gasket

Need Master brake cylinder and gaskets for the brake system for my Chrysler B-70 1924. Also grateful for tips on companies that might sell spare parts for such old Chryslers. Hans-Bertil

Just bought a Chrysler B 70 1924 model. The main brake cylinder is stuck. Wondering if anyone has a tip on getting the piston loose. Would also need tips on where to buy the rubber gaskets for the brake system on this car. Grateful for answers and tips. Best regards, Hans-Bertil (Sweden)
