Re: What did you do today that was flathead V8 related?

Nobody working on a flathead V8 lately? I just got back from Luray where I sold some '35 Ford parts and refurbished original Ford cutouts.

Re: Generator Spinning

It sounds like the diode is either shorted or hooked up backwards. I offer refurbished original Ford cutouts and have the correct one for your generator. PM for details.

Re: Relocate battery in ‘35

I put an Optima in my '35 Fordor, stock location. Much easire to remove/replace. I made my own custom hold down bracket.

Re: Pully came off generator shaft

The thin nut and lock washer was used with a keyed pulley, as shown in the exploded diagram above, not the threaded pulley.

The thread on pulley used a locking clip on the end of the shaft, which...

Re: Pully came off generator shaft

I rebuild a lot of these generators. That is a thin nut, I would NOT use an impact wrench, there is a good chance of stripping it. Loctite - yes.

Re: Auction results in Varina Va.

I need to service, adjust and test the cutout first. I want to make sure it works properly first. If I can get it done in time. I'll bring it to Luray on Thursday.

Re: 6 Volt heater motor rebuild

I'm no expert on Hadees heaters, but I did restore one 6 or 7 years ago. Here are a couple other similar badges that say Hadees Heater on them.

The Luray pre-war swap meet is just over a week away. I've been working hard to get a batch of rebuilt generators and refurbished cutouts ready to bring. I just started on another batch of cutouts...

Re: 35 Hinge Pin Mirrors by Drake

My '35 came with the '36 style curved arms. Its not right, but they position just fine. But visibility with them sucks. The mirrors are small and so is the field of view. I went on ebay and found a...

Re: Mid-Atlantic Pre-War Swap Meet, 05/10/2024-05/11/2024, Luray, VA

Last year Brattons set up at Luray. You could pre-order online and they brought the order to Luray. That was nice to save the shipping. I just called to see if they were doing it again - the answer...

Re: Generator and Fan

I don't know, I'm not an engineer :D

There were a lot of different pulleys available over the years. A mid - late 1930s car with big V8 typically used a pulley .408" to .438 diameter. The V8 60...

Re: Generator and Fan

Yes, V8 60 has a smaller crank and generator pulley. I looked through my spare pulleys and found one V8 60 pulley. They are hard to find and identify. There are two, maybe three different V8 60...
