Re: Oil Filter Canister

I have had the oil filter canister off three times, checked and changed the gasket, and it still has a bad leak at the block where the canister mates up. It does not look like there is anything wrong with the gasket, or that it is not seated. I always have to use sealer just to get the gasket to sta...

Re: Oil Filter Canister

Roger, I still have the original oil filter canister setup, and would like to leave it that way. That picture from the parts book is what I was looking for. That particular page in my parts book, 10AC, is dated March 20, 1959, and the picture at the top is the same, but my bottom section just says n...

Oil Filter Canister

I had a question about the oil filter canister setup on the 59 318 Plymouth. I searched older posts and found that there are adapter kits, and you can use a later setup off of a newer 318. Needless to say I changed the oil, and used the NAPA Gold 1076 filter, and when I put it back together it has a...

Re: 1959 Plymouth rear bumper

Hi John, I would want the guards as well. Do you have good original bumper bolts I can have refinished ? One of the little side brackets is twisted up too. Do you have those for both sides ? Do you also have a nice straight front bumper core for a 59 Plymouth Sport Fury, with good original bumper bo...

Car Commercial

I was trying to find out about a commercial that I remember as a child. I could be wrong in some of the details, but I have yet to find it on Youtube, or anywhere else. It is not for a 59 Plymouth, but it was a Plymouth as I remember. I thought it was a battery commercial. It starts out as the paren...

Re: 59 Plymouth torqueflite shifter cable

Thanks for the information on that eBay listing. I had to check, but that was the right cable for the early transmission I am going to use. I know there was an early style and a late style cable. It shows both in my parts book. I purchased that cable, and its funny how that never came up in my searc...

Re: 59 Plymouth torqueflite shifter cable

Thanks for the replies. I would appreciate any numbers or websites to get in touch with any of these places. I will look myself as well. I watch eBay pretty regularly, but I have not seen any cables the times I have looked on there.

59 Plymouth torqueflite shifter cable

Hello, I am still looking for a 59 Plymouth torqueflite shifter cable for my car that I am changing over from a powerflite transmission. Does anyone know of someone who might have this part ? I have all of the other parts, but the cable. Does anyone know if the powerflite cable can be modified to wo...

Re: Convertibles that survived

I was reading over the list, and saw that Harvey Weaver was not on it. He has a red 59 Sport Fury convertible, that I believe was originally black.

Re: Battery Hold Down

I see the zig zag type hold down on ebay, but I am also missing the stud on the engine side of the tray. I am guessing that the hole in the lower battery tray side is where the other stud should go, but it must be a hook on that side to be able to be secured when a wing nut is attached across the to...
