Stuff 4 Sale / Misc 29U and related parts
May 20, 2023, 07:38:00 PM
I am downsizing and getting ready to move and have a few parts looking for a new home, most for 29U:  Refurbished camshaft with fiber gear installed; tail light stem (believe it's for a 30 or 31 though), windshield riser handle and escutcheon (appears to be from a delux model, not sure though), 31 clutch pressure plate and disk, fully refurbished (was going to install on my 29, but my tranny has a weld repair that interfered with this newer style pressure plate), brake master cylinder (needs refurbishment); emergency brake band assembly, oil filler tube and cap, intake manifold (has braze repair), crankshaft pulley ( has braze repair), black spare tire cover 20 inch, tan cloth spare tire cover NOS for 19 inch tire (from Jay Fisher),  DRT-08 Carb (Needs work), DRJH-08 (similar to 28Q), four original hubcaps (beat up but serviceable), one set of gas tank straps, right front door glass channel (new), original dash (has holes from where a radio and starter button were installed), Refurbished AC G-14 spark plugs (Auth alternate from G-12 original), Klaxon 12C horn (works but is dinged up a lot), exhaust manifold, valve cover, set of piston rods, freeze plugs (new).

Will pull off anything that sells to keep this updated. Will pull it down after. 12 months regardless.  Can send a picture of anything you are interested in

Try contacting Tom Hannaford at Then and Now Automotive. I believe at one time he made some.

I haven't been on the forum for awhile. I just received the latest issue of the Plymouth bulletin and was sad to see that Frank Pistotnik had passed away on January 14. I had hoped to get to meet him, but was never able to get up that way.

Chet,
The pin striping looks great!  It really gives the car a great look.

A great day today, in the 70s this morning, so took a 39 mile cruise in the country.

BTW, we can get ethanol free gas at a station near a marina by the Tennessee river. Many boaters prefer ethanol free gas.  Otherwise, we used to have several regularYou cannot view this attachment.  stations nearby that offered ethanol free gas.  Now there is only one, a Texaco station carrying ethanol free fuel.

My daughter and I took the 29 sedan to our local Texaco for a fill-up with Ethanol free gas today, then drove to the Tennessee River.  ( My daughter was anxious for us the get moving again to get the "air conditioning " working again!)

Great cold but clear day in North Alabama for a drive to the old Huntsville Marina on the Tennessee River

It was such a warm beautiful Christmas Eve day in North Alabama, I had to take the 29 for a drive with my two youngest in the back seat.  The Tennessee River is in the background.   Merry Christmas to all!

General Discussion / Nice day for a 26 mile drive

Great day for a drive, warm and dry, unusual even in Alabama this time of year, so my youngest daughter and I took the 29 out for a 26 mile cruise.  Unfortunately did not stop for a picture, so got one afterwards.

Opps - I was talking the oil pressure line that comes off the other side of the oil/vac pump to the gage, uses same 1/8 line.

I replaced the 1/8 soft copper line on my 29 Plymouth with 1/8 90/10 copper/nickel after the soft copper line broke at the vacuum tank fitting while on a Saturday morning drive.  Amazing how fast the oil will pour out of the tiny line when it brakes.

Opps!  I was talking about the other 1/8 copper line, the one to the oil gage. On my engine both come off the oil/vac pump, although on some it comes off the other side of the engine.  Both lines are 1/8 copper.  I changed both to 90/10 copper/ nickel.  The vibration eventually broke the oil pressure line at the fitting.  Had to call my wife and she brought me the tools to repair it so we could drive it home.
