in case anyone wants an update. it turns out I have 33/34 brackets on the shared 35/36 rack. if anyone needs a freshly powder coated rack it's up for sale now.
sorry for the delay. Can't post pics from my phone.
The main support bracket look like they're supposed to mount at the bumper brace mounts but only one of the holes lines up. I don't mind to add a piece of steel in to fix this part as long as i can get the rest of it looking visually...
Hi all.
Need a little help. I picked up a luggage rack for my 36 a little while back. I had everything powder coated and I'm trying to get it on the car. Can anyone's provide clear and up close assembly pics or perhaps even a copy of the directions from one of the aftermarket kits. I.e. where...
I've got a 38 (24 stud) engine in my 36 phaeton. It has the two piece oil pan/clutch cover that I understand is a truck specific piece, but the flywheel cover is missing. what years can i crossover? 38-41 only or will one off a 46 pickup work--a buddy's got one in his yard but I don't want to...
any idea what this is. it came with my phaeton and i don't recognize it. based on the paint I'm assuming it's chassis related. don't see it in the v8 club book either.
thanks

Finally got pics downloaded and resized to post. there's
1) a general pic of the engine--before anyone frets over it--the wire nut is gone.
2) A pic looking down into the fuel pump rod area. Note what appears to be a retainer of some sort. it keeps the rod from lifting straight out
3)...
The pictured rod is what I ordered. There's definitely a retainer of some kind holding it in place. I'm going to download pics to my desktop tomorrow to upload them. Mobile isn't cooperating
It is not pumping. I have the replacement pump rod but I'm trying to gauge if the diaphragm has gone bad. It's really hard to actuate manually buy does push air through. I suspect the rod is too short but I'm not sure how to take the retainer thing out.
I have not pulled the plugs to check...
Bear with me here. I'm totally new to flathead. The 36 phaeton i just bought has a freshly rebuilt 24 stud 37 model engine. I've heard it run but can't get it to run consistently. Logic says fuel,fire and air and it should run.
The handful of times I've been able to get it running it's been...
What does the ash tray retainer for the 36 phaeton look like?
Is it a bracket like the 35 spinner or just two screws through the face into?
Pics would be awesome
Thanks
