  1. Good Evening All

    I am looking for some advice on a problem starter. The starter on my 1926 Standard Six locks up from time to time. When this happens the motor will

    not turn. I can put the car in third gear and rock it back and forth. This will

    break it loose and then everything works good for a while. This has happened

    a number of times. I have changed out the gear ring on the fly wheel with the

    correct ring. (118 Teeth) The starter bendix looks good to me.

    Is there a cure for this???? I don't have any clue on what to do.

    I have looked through the documentation that I have and can find no info

    on this problem.

    Thanks

  2. Good Evening All

    I need some help with Studebaker Part Numbers listed in the Parts Catalog for

    Series 23-24-25. All nuts, bolts, screws, washers and shims are listed with a number such as show below.

    Condenser nut________________26x29

    Condenser nut washer__________40x31

    Timer base plate clamp screw____55x10

    My question is are these part numbers unique to Studebaker or were they a way of calling out hardware in the "Olden Days"????? Today we use a term like 1/4 x 20 x 1.

    Thanks

  3. Good Morning All

    Can anyone suggest a way to keep the rust from bleeding out on the piano hinges used on the four piece hoods of early Studebakers. I have the hood apart now and I hope to be able to prevent the inside of the hinges from rusting.

    Thanks

  4. Hello All

    I am to the point, on my project Stu, of putting in the wooden floor. My problem is that I don't know how the door that lets you remove and replace the battery goes in. My Stu was missing 95% of the wood when I got her. It was all rotted out.

    Does any one have any pictures of a floor board that can start me in the right direction? I have manuals for Her but they do not show anything that I can use for direction.

    I appreciate any help you guys can provide.

    Thanks

  5. Thanks for for the replies. My problem is not the steering lock. I was able to remove it and had a key made. My problem is the Key lock on the transmission. It is made of brass but I cannot see anyway to remove it. There is a small hole one the very rear of the transmission top, but as far as I can see there is not pin. It seems to be just the tumbler body.

    Thanks
