I made one out of a piece of steel. I drill a hole that was size of intake manifold. Used a 40 Chev carb with bigger opening. So used a larger drill and make a taper. I can email a drawing. Steve

just using rattle can enamel

years ago I painted the plane blue which was a mistake as orginal colors weren't that bad.

I replace the dist on both my 27 and 27 Buicks. Used a 28 or latter dist and can get point cap, rotor and cond. from any parts place for around$45.

should have stated this is a pedal car

I bought a set from Bob for my 27 Buick and very good, fit well.

looking for correct blue and red for my pursuit airplane, I have found the silver paint Thanks

We are planning on attending with our 27 Buick Woodie. Is there a place to park truck and trailer ? Steve and Margaret Smith Falmouth, Me

Roger Barrett, Thanks, just what I was looking for. I can get both seals which would be the best. Have replaced the felt about every 2-3 years even with fluid doen an inch. Going to check shaft for smoothness. Thanks again Steve Falmouth Me 1927 Buick Woodie wagon

Someplace I read where you could replace the felt seal with a modern oil seal. Mine still leaks after lowering gear oil level. Thanks for any help.

On both my 26 and 27 Buicks I used a end section of 28 gen. and used a 28 Dist. Actually you can use quite a few differant later GM dist. Haven't had any trouble in over 10 years. Got all the parts from NAPA. Good luck

have had both my 26 and 27 Buick done at local muffler shop. Alot cheaper than sending away for kit.

I just installed new hood supports from Speedway. Fits 42-48 Ford only. Worth looking at them. Hood never shut so good and very little gap by firewall.

TO 19tom40. Actualy all I couild fine here was copper at O'Reillys $25. universal set Thanks. Steve

I HAVE A 48 Ford that I converted to 12 volt with electronic ignition. What is best 7MM universal ignition wire set to use. I am usually the chrome looms.

I have a 4 post lift that I can put anything on. I did put my 48 Ford Conv. on a 2- post lift and body started to sagg front and rear. I think because there is no metal roof..

I restore a 48 Ford Conv. Body off so I sandblasted frame and springs used POR-15 Was 12 years ago and still looks.

I found a pair at Advance auto for $25, sound pretty good,

17Tom40 Thanks a lot never thought of looking at Macs, their website is don right now. i have a Harbor freight ahgoo horn but doesn't go with a 48 Ford. Thanks again Steve

Looking for a replacement 12 volt horn for a 48 Ford. Are there any modern ones that sound good. I have a harbour freight model A type but doesn't have a good sound. Thanks for any help.

Went to my starter rebuilder. He took a 56 Field coil (12 volt) and put in my 6 volt 48 Ford starter. Works great doesn't turn over as fast as the 6 volt starter running on 12 volt. With the 6 volt starter running too fast it had chipped a couple teeth on ring gear.

I had keys made for my 48 Ford and locksmith took all my locks and coded them so One key would fit all. Did the same on a 36 Chev back in the 70's. So handy to have just one key. Good luck

Would a 12 volt battery pak have enough juice to run a CB and GPS for say 8 hrs. Or would I be better off with a 12 volt battery and charge every night, Thanks

I would to install a 12 volt alternator on my 27 Buick so I could run a CB and GPS. Has anyone put a pulley on shaft to water pump. Of coarse I would have to check RPM of water pump shaft. Thanks
