  1. Welcome! great unit you bought. Pos ground is an easy conversion to neg with only a few simple changes. But that said the pos ground systems work just fine.
  2. Can you get either LED bulbs or complete lights there? Much brighter and different beam pattern. If you use them be sure to re aim the lights as they will shine higher than regular units. Paul
  3. Watts has them custom made when you order it. Original look color coded cloth covered. Takes 3 weeks and cost is $1600.00 plus about $40 shipping.
  4. Produced from 1940 to 1942, produced totally 365 copies. Externally identical to other E-series trucks, it was included to F range, as equipped with chain-driven rear wheels and F series heavy chassis
  5. Just re read the certificate of Authenticity seems it's Wheezie Jeffersons pen, oh well at least I got Abe Lincolns I pad.
  6. The Hydrovac unit has a master cylinder on it that works by vacuum needs to be be bleed. Generally they need to be pressure bleed with 10 or 20 psi. BUT what I done without a power bleeder is to just crack the rear bleeders for an hour plus and let gravity go to work (be sure to keep checking the master cylinder for fluid). Then repeat on the front brakes. They some times get air bound between the main master and the Hydravac master.
  7. MACK ER Chain drive
  8. Push rod length and pedal travel correct? Bench bleed the master before you installed it?
  9. Well at least Thomas Jeffersons BiC pen he used when he wrote the Declaration of Independence I got on Amazon is real.
  10. Some exotic stuff is reasonable on Amazon. I just bought a Luffa used by John the Baptist with a free copy of Noahs original plans for the ARK for only $3995.00 guaranteed to be authentic with a sworn certificate from King Solomon..
  11. All the info I've found is it is mechanical with flex joints ever section to bell cranks to shift rods to trans. The trans is a 3 speed so two rods make sense.
  12. If the mounting holes are the same the only difference is the OEM is a 1 1/2 bore as opposed to the NAPA 1 3/4 bore. Just a tad more line pressure.
  13. 1937 MACK bus chassis. Note the long air intake tube. All dressed up.
  14. Casting number and Lockheed Wagner name as in first photos. The FE numbers are stamp cast in the body as in the second photos. The FE-??? will cross to current model Raybestos unit according to my books.
  15. Back yard yesterday late afternoon. Than the poo poo hit the fan. Hosted on Fotki
  16. Neat!! Paul
  17. Do both your out handles drop down a bit? I have a box of the springs that keep the handles straight in my mixer parts container.I needed a pair and the vintage body hardware guy at Hersey offered me a box of 50 for 5 bucks.
  18. Forgot to tell him the odor Propane gas is an aphrodisiac for northern male raccoons.
  19. Do you have the casting number off the master? Should start wit FE-*******
  20. Your only 80 or so miles away, you're welcome any time. . . promise not to tun the hounds loose too. Paul
  21. I see the ability to take any of my Autocars or REO and using one of their new cabs to refurbish it
  22. Nope, only posted them here, but it was on Craigs list.
  23. One cylinder was leaking in to the sealed shell, coons had sex under let rack, finished and when the male coon lit a cigarette the propane gas exploded. look in the bushes and snow around the site, probably find a little teensy weensy coon condom.
  24. My grandfathers brother had an Auto repair/ gas station and Pontiac dealer in Centerport Long Island from the mid teens until his death in 1967. During the 20's and 30's most of his customers were from Eatons Neck and Centerport. The likes of the Vanderbilts, Morgans, Pratt and Manvilles so his wrecker wrecker fit his image for his clients. Biggest memory was climbing all over his 1928 Packard tow truck. when he died I was 14 and couldn't convince my dad to take it for his garage. so it was sold. The unit just came up for sale after sitting in the buyers garage since 1969. I contacted the seller and sent him a wire transfer deposit to buy it. Only 3 photos and needs most likely a ton of mechanical and the body was changed quite a bit. But 52 years later I'm going to own it. 1933 photo Center Shore Drive Centerport N.Y.
