Yes, Gary is correct - you need to put new slots in the same locations as original ones. That's what I did.

For years I've been using Deka 901MF (it's the only 6V battery of that size I can get in Russia. Very happy - good cranking power, little self-discharge. I bought the first one in 2012, had to replace it in 2018. My car is driven once or twice a month May to October, sits in a warm garage in...

I've just had a negative experience with UPS. I ordered some part for my friend's Chrysler. The seller is in Canada. The package went to the UPS hub in the USA, two weeks later I got a notification that the package was being returned to the sender. Go figure....

another option - milled from stainless and polished?

in my case the modeling was really quick, the guy did it in a couple hours. Building a program for 3D milling machine took way longer

If you have a 3D model made, I can get a quote here, in Russia

Sorry I failed to mention my location - Russia. I don't think it would be useful for you in the US

A lot of younger folks take it for granted, but I keep on being amused by how modern technology advances make our lives easier. Not long ago I had a rare wind wing bracket broken on my '39 Fordor. I couldn't find that part anywhere and it was impossible to repair it. A friend told to have it...

That's very generous offer! I would like to have some very much. My question - how can I get them in Russia? I have no idea if I can send you SASE

it is screwed on the shaft. I used small needle nose pliers to keep the shaft from spinning.

I don't mean to hijack the thread, but I have a related question. My brake light switch is acting strangely. It functions fine for the first 10-15 minutes of driving then quits. Brakes work with no issues. What can be possible cause of such behavior?

WTB 1939 wind wing brackets or at least one upper bracket wind wing is like in the photo

Ok, I don't have a spare coil, but I have a spare condenser. I'll replace it and see if it helps

Thanks everyone for your input, I really appreciate this! the battery is fresh, the starter has about 2000 mi on it, should be fine. I'll start with checking ballast resistor and all the wires. Can this problem be attributed to a coil condenser?

yep, that's what it means.

Thanks! a new entry in my vocabulary of American slang. "Pop some tags", "pop the clutch"... :)

:) thanks for clarification!

we are lucky so far - no ethanol gas in mandated and sold in Russia. In some rural areas you can still get 78 octane gas, but it's being phased out by refineries. I don't think I flooded it since I know how to start hot carburated engine - with the gas pedal held to the floor

All wires look fine, I have battery kill switch on ground terminal with ground two ground wires - one to the body and one to the stud on a passenger cylinder head Can you explain what "pop the clutch" means? I press the clutch, shifted into the second gear, once people pushed the car fast fast...

Sorry, forgot to mention - the starter had difficulty turning the engine the first one or two turns and then it continued to turn the engine with now problems, as fast as it does when cold.
