Misc humor and interesting videos
Marty Roth replied to Jim Bollman's topic in Automobile Humor and Interest
OK - Soooo- You tighten the oil pan drain plug as tight as you can , preferrably with a Breaker-bar, plus a two-foot length of pipe as an extender, until it turns freely, and then, (after replacing the pan), do the same thing next time, but with only a One-Foot Long extender ?? -

1988 Citroen, not mine
Marty Roth replied to Xander Wildeisen's topic in "Not Mine" Automobiles For Sale
My 1964 2-CV 435 cc topped out at 55 mph, and didn't like hills, but was a blast to drive. Driving a fast car slowly is nowhere as much as blast as driving a slow car FAST ! Suspension travel is amazing to the point of rediculous, and you could take fast hard turns on all 4 wheels and the door handles -
Door panels and rear side panels for 63 Chrysler 300 convertible
Marty Roth replied to Jack6615's topic in Technical
Check the Chrysler forums, maybe a Gary Goer (spelling?) set could be available -
I used to use a high pressure long fibre wheel bearing grease back in the 1950s through the '70s, but now use a good quality red synthetic. While any old wheel bearing grease is probably "good enough", For the extra buck or two, is is just that level of reassurance. Good Luck

190 degrees is not excessive when running. Thankfully is is dropping, and not pouring out the overflow. One thought is that you may be overfilling the radiator. That was initially an issue with my 1930 Packard and 1937 Buick, as well as the 1915 Hudson - a learning experience ! This is not a pressurized system, as in modern vehicles. My initial suggestion is that you only fill the radiator to where you can look down into it and fill only as high as the top of the fins. Expansion is normal, so dripping out of the overflow would be expected when filled to the top. Expect to add coolant on a semi-regfular basis. Please let us know of your progress- and please add pictures of your car - we appreciate pictures, and good luck with your Nash.

Another family photo..It is a Hupp or
Marty Roth replied to Flivverking's topic in General Discussion
Just my 2 cents, but the hub cap with the octagonal pressing does not look right for either Nash or Hupmobile, but the body is similar to the Hupp Hupp: Nash -

Right, you are ! Gettin' lucky? Sometimes gettin' lucky beats the heck out of skill, talent, and planning- But I really should install that Necker's Knob. I have a '30s vintage one that was on the '34 Buick - took it off when we restored it, and one I got with a picture in it of Marilyn Monroe with the white dress from the movie "Seven Year Itch", and I guess it belongs on the '54 Caddy

Hi Glenn, I frequently forget to immediately put things back where they were, or where they belong, so my mis-deeds do catch up with me. I've learned that seeking forgiveness, or "acting" foolish works better than asking permission.
