Re: 59A Plodder: Low Oil pressure! Can I fix it?

Re: Excessive crank end float.
Just a little input on this very interesting problem Mart.
I like the idea of building up the thrust surface of the bearing to restore the proper thrust, but I would do it a little differently. With...

Re: 1928-29 Ford roadster door bumpers
On the forward jam, the bumper hole is 2 inches below the hole for the bottom screw of the hinge. The other is on the rear jam, 2 inches below the top of the cab rail.

Re: What is it?
My guess would be the under support brackets for the floor boards.

Re: Reflecting cylinder walls
It only needs a new head gasket. Why are you trying to find trouble? Replace the gasket and drive to your heart's content.

Re: Your painted front bumper
Personally, as much as i love black, not so on a bumper. I'd go silver or the powder chrome. You did not state your car's theme, original or hotrod, so i'm assuming original as to my preference.

Re: Plating parts
If you want the best results, disassembly will always be to your benefit. Also, never send the plater a component that is not to be plated. You'll never see it again. So disassemble.
