Re: High RPM problem, thoughts?
Go to the "search" option at the top of this page and type in, dual carb setup. Lots of good info. Especially relating to the linkage aspect of the system.
Good luck

Happy Mother's Day
Sure wish I could ring her up and talk for a while. She was the best.
Raised four kids and had a full time job. She would sneak food off of her plate on to ours when there wasn't quite enough.
Love...

Re: High RPM problem, thoughts?
Regardless, having a spare carb is a good idea. You made the right decision to get a new one. Now you can take your time to explore and find a fix for the bad one.
Good luck,
Phil

Re: starting problem???
Maybe you should just leave the electric pump on all the time. Your mechanical pump may be toast

Re: Columbia two speed differentials
The hype around the need to "Bulletin proof" these Columbias is way over blown. This is not a cost-effective insurance plan. Reminds of the "Car Sheild" crap". Just get a good, used, (No Cracks!)...

Re: 3 window coupe
The 3 W looks much better with suicide doors. The hinges are then in a much better place.

Welcome to ModelAland.

Skip uses only the best materials. Cuts no corners. He has become, by years of practice, the "King of Coils".

Re: Is this heater from a 1937 Ford?
How nice of you to assist with this project
Is that tag, just above the heater door knob, at all legible? Maybe use a little lacquer thinner on a rag to remove some red paint.

Re: Change from 16 inch wheels to 15 inch wheels
15" wheels have the advantage over 16" if the choice is a "reversed" style wheel", in clearance within the inner fender. Many more options.
IMHO 16" wheels and tires look much better on these cars...

Re: ‘40 2 door sedan
There is a good reason that this car is so low mileage. No fun to drive. These 60 HP engines are great for boats and midget racers but not so much in a full-size sedan.
I agree with the Olds Rocket...

I recently (this past week) purchased a starter from you and, as usual, there were no issues.
