Choke cable is worn smooth. I can get a more clear picture next time I'm at it. Had this one on Photobucket, didn't look that blurry until I posted it.

Well that sucks, did you escape unscathed? I would not want to get hit by anything in one of these old timers. Hope you got proper compensation, as well.

Part numbers about half way down the page. http://www.ply33.com/Parts/group8

I was able to get the parts from NAPA. I don't have the NAPA part numbers handy but can look for my list later when I'm home.

Work hours have been hectic, makes it tough to spend the little free time left on the car. Especially with a 4 year old and being in the middle of our 3 months of summer up here in Yankee land.

I am still hoping to do tires and wiring at a minimum, whether that happens in time for a show this year remains to be seen.

Maybe some of you have seen this, interesting land speed race car. Crazy engine spec's.

"The huge four cylinder engine has a 7.5-inch bore x 9.843-inch stroke with a 1729 c.i.d. (28 liters) and it produces 300-h.p; each cylinder displaces 432 c.i."

Which fitting is stuck to on the brake line? I would say if you have the lines and are making the mess, change them all and be done with it for 50 more years.

I'll give you a call later.

If you are not getting any fluid out of the bleeder, I would just pull the hose off of the wheel cylinder and give the pedal a push. (with hose securely in a can) You will know in a hurry if the hose has an issue. Should probably start leaking down with the cap of off the reservoir. Careful though, you have one of those "fancy cars" with paint. Not much to these systems, did the entire thing in an afternoon. You helped me bleed'em. If I recall ( I should be able to find the sales slip) having the new hoses made was somewhere around 36 bucks a piece. Disappointing as it is they only last 50 years..... :o

I may have time one day this weekend if you need a hand.

Last weekend Frank and I peeled off some history. Behold an original 29 roof complete with chalk marks.

Look where the headliner is attached to the bows

Someone passed this onto me via email today. Its someones auto blog and a lot of people have contributed by scanning in their collection of antique and classic advertisements as well as other things. There are 5 for the 29 Ply and many others. I know the URL seems a little odd, but there is a bunch of interesting stuff there.

Here I have some pictures of the cam drive, and shaft driven by it. Notice the offset on both.

Ted,

I have little vertical play in my distributor, maybe 1/32nd. In the attached pictures I tired to snap the gap.
