Thanks Sal..I will check out the power valve, and thanks for the info on those brass tubes. Never seen them before. TommyJ

Autolite 4100. Main fuel bowl empties overnight. If I prime the carb with fuel prior to start, it will start right up and run fine. If I don't prime it I have to crank it several times before it will start. I took the cover off the carb and just poured some fuel in the bowl. The next day it...

Looking at the front mounting area of my seat, does anyone have an idea what this seat might belong to? Thanks. TommyJ

OK..Thanks..For some reason I was thinking Shoebox wouldn't have them for the Ranchwagon. Good to know. TommyJ

Talking seats, I guess I need something to bolt them to. Anyone have a source for some floor pans / patch panels for a 53 Ranchwagon? OER and classic industry say they have them, but the only thing that shows up is metal plugs for the floor pans. Thanks..TommyJ

Yea...that makes sense. Thanks

I think I read that a 4 door front bench seat wouldn't work in the 2 door ranchwagon. Why specifically wouldn't it work? Would it not bolt up or are there other reasons. Reason I am asking is that I have access to a front bench seat out of a 53 4 door car.Thanks..TommyJ..

First of all thanks for all the inputs and photos. Here is a pic of the mounting points on my front seat. Tommy J.

I am not sure if the front seat I have is correct. The seat adjuster lever on mine is on the left side. Should it be on the front? And it has a split back. Thanks. TommyJ

Thanks, I will keep that in mind. Thanks Bruce that would be great. TommyJ

Yes, behind the front tire. This is a Ranchwagon 53..

I see the mounting holes for the front seat. But, looking at the seat it appears that the front should hook into some sort of bracket. Is this correct? Any help? Thanks. TommyJ

Here is the other side of the washer foot pedal on my 53.

Thanks for all the info. I don't plan on rebuilding the spring at this time, but you know how that goes! TommyJ

Thanks Tom..That is great..
