I will slowly learn..before I take anything apart. It should be interesting to see how they work. This is a great time learning about this fine old machine. I love it. Thanks for all your help and guidance...I would be dead in the water without your help. |

Re: 1933 can't start after recent restart
That would be called a drum or hub. Order one of the Hub Pullers seen advertised in the V8 Times. They run about $200. Put the car up on good quality jack stands and do all 4 wheels. New brake spring kits and do dads will be in order. Check your brakes rods to make sure they are straight and have no bends in them.

Re: 1933 can't start after recent restart
Frank,
I don't know what condition your fuel tank is in, but cutting in an inline fuel filter under the drivers rear wheel might be a good option for you. Some say to just put one under the hood. However I hate when you open the hood on a classic car and see inline fuel filters. Plus there is a safety reason for not placing them there. You would need a small tube cutter, some rubber fuel line, clamps, and a filter. By placing it near the rear wheel, it is easy to replace and is unseen. I have 2 spare filters you can have. PM me and I will make it happen. |

Re: 1933 can't start after recent restart
The car is still running.
I am installing the tail lights and plan to register it this week... Trying to get a 1933 license plate that the DMV will accept. I have a brief video of the car starting but it is 30 mgs and they won't let me post it on here. |

Re: 1933 can't start after recent restart
The car starts up fine each day...Once I complete the tail lights wiring I plan to register the car with New antique car plates and then change these over to real 1933 antique plates that the DMV will accept.

Re: 1933 can't start after recent restart
Tail lights are installed and wired and working perfectly ...brake lights too.
I bought these wire clips from ray Naschiwitz and was able to clip the wires down except had problem using the clips alone the cross member running along the fuel tank. What are the usually attachment places for those clips? |

Re: 1933 can't start after recent restart
The tail lamp crossover wire clips were attached to the front lip of the fuel tank, not on the rear cross member.

Re: 1933 can't start after recent restart
Registered the car , Now ..Must wait form plates to arrive then will go for test run. Should I pour Champagne on the front fender before taking her out? Or will that take the paint off...Remember what do once said about Pepsi cola taking the paint of a car!

Re: 1933 can't start after recent restart
A small bottle of mineral water should do the trick.
Congrats on getting it to this stage. Mart. |
