Thanks, all. I'll find a trailer to borrow. I was really only concerned with the possible damage to the transmission from not having the input shaft spinning. All of your points are well taken, but you guys must really know some boneheads...you mean I can't tow a #7500 trailer with my 1977...

Can I safely to my 36 with a car dolly, or do I need to use a trailer or flatbed? Factory 3-speed. I know some vehicles are not recommended to be towed with the transmission in neutral and the drive wheels rotating. Lubrication problems when the input shaft is not spinning. Thanks, all.

When you re-adjusted the valves, were any of them way out of wack? This would indicate "something" changed on that part of the valvetrain. If they were only off a couple thou here and there, probably normal run in. We always re-adjust non-hydraulic followers after some run in. Kind of hard...

FWIW - I use old FleaBay quite a bit. Mostly for guitar and amplifier related items, but for many other things as well. 99+% of the folks - no issues. Buying or selling. Even bought a car through a contact I got on Ebay. As someone else stated, check feedback. If someone has hundreds of...

Thanks I didn't want to bugger anything up I assumed the center section with the hinged cover had to come off before the large cover. I had the outer ring off. The large cover must just be "stuck" to the face of the tire from being in place for several years.

Um, How do I get the spare tire off of my '36 Tudor Sedan? It does not have a key lock. The hinged center of the tire cover opens and reveals what looks like a split cone with a spring. I'm stuck. I'll post a few photos. Thanks

$1500 rolling chassis even get pics where I live. I traveled two states, by air, to pick up a car. I had well over 100 high-res professional photos to look at before even attempting the deal. Seller posted the photos on a photo hosting site called Photobucket. Same one I use and it is very...

Bump Hope I didn't break any rules...

I found a couple posts referencing these guys, especially Mr Livingston. Any other feedback on them? I'm thinking of having them build my engine. It's an outright purchase so I don't have to hunt down a good block, usable crank, etc. Prices are very reasonable for a 59AB built as requested...

Never ate this stuff 'till I married a good Southern gal. It's wonderful. This is the story my mom told me (100% Polish). It appears to be Middle European (German, Polish, Czek, Yugo, etc.), obviously not Jewish or Muslim. Pigs are fat, chickens scratch in the ground. Eat pork and...

How do you "forget" to place a reserve? Guy's probably an idiot or a scammer. Sure, spend $10,000 on an attorney to get a $5000 truck;) Unless you have a relative that would do it for free, walk away.

You can Google the specs. My '36 Tudor is listed at around 2600 lbs - probably a dry-ish weight;).

This is what mine looks like. 1936 Tudor Touring (Humpback).

Already tried them. Hagerty stops at 1946, at least their on-line tool does.. Anyone else have any suggestions?

Any title problems are a headache. I had this issue in Ohio. Title was one digit off from the frame numbers. I took several days to find someone that could even tell me what to do. Several DMV folks wanted me to have it inspected as a salvage vehicle at an inspection station an hour away...
