Re: Anyone recognize these Thermostats?

Found that CC 1672621 seems to be a PN for a Thermostat for 40-56 Dodge, Plymouth, Chrysler, Desoto including trucks with cast iron thermostat housings according to a few listings on ebay. So 230ci among other engines as the number crosses to the modern replacements. Would still like to know if that...

Anyone recognize these Thermostats?

Anyone happen to have an Ord 9 from the 60s that shows FSN numbers for the thermostats in our trucks? Ran across a few of these dated 65/66, which I believe are M37 thermostats, but trying to confirm. My Ord 9 is 1954 so doesnt have the FSN numbers listed since they didnt exist yet :mrgreen: . Chrys...

Re: Anyone have Sid Beck's Greek Harness Diagram?

Yeah, the Greek harnesses were color coded wire instead of wire tags. Its about the only concession i have made so far, front and rear harness was $150 bucks and in perfect shape. Can deal with some color to save $1k haha. Of course I bought the harness 10yrs ago and lost the paperwork :oops:

Anyone have Sid Beck's Greek Harness Diagram?

So finally getting around to putting my truck back together and am getting close to putting the wiring back in. I have the Greek harnessing that Sid Beck sold before he died and used to have the diagrams he sent with them but had a hard drive crash so they are lost. Does anyone happen to have them d...

Looking for clutch linkage

Hows it going guys? Figured out I somehow jacked up my clutch linkage when I took the truck apart a few years back. I am in need of the linkage that connects the pedal arm to the clutch shaft arm. Anyone have a parts truck with one that is usable? Also needing the clutch return spring as well.

Original Spark Plug wire length

Hows it going guys? I know this question has been asked here before but none of the threads actually had measurements. A semi local guy has a huge box of NOS military spark plug wires but they are mixed from different applications (M38, M151, Generators, M37, Deuce). I know for sure there are M37 wi...

Re: The Brake Drum Condundrum

May be able to find a small scale foundry that can cast them as the originals are made. There are A LOT of statue foundries around here, let me poke around a bit. Was just thinking about this myself as Ive got an egg shaped drum or two on my truck that need addressed.
