Thanks for the info!

I purchased this 1938 1601-D last fall and have just come up with the time to give it a close inspection and noticed that I can't find any 38's with these bumper guards. They fit perfectly to the bumper. The one on the rear has to be folded back to open the trunk. Does anyone have an info on them. I feel they must not have been original.

Thanks again for the help. I also have a Model A Ford and it is not necessary to remove the axels to remove the front of the pumpkin.

Thanks for the info! It did seem like the.axels needed to be pulled, but I couldn't find any info stating so.

Are you saying that you must pull the tires and remove the shafts?

I've removed the drive shaft and want to remove the pumpkin so I can replace the rear end gasket that's leaking. The pumpkin comes out about 3/8 of an inch and comes to a stop. Is there some trick to completely removing it?

I recently purchased a 1938 1601-D and I'm in the process of changing the oil. The oil filter is located under the generator and near impossible to get at without removing the generator. I've noticed that other models have the filter above the generator making it much more accessible. There are two threaded holes in the head that would accommodate the bracket for the filter. Is the filter normally moved to this position and is there a modern replacement? At present there is an AC Type P-21S in use and I can't find a new filter of that type.

Thanks for all the info! Sure explains a lot!

Just found a number on the head. "Stamped" in 5/16" numerals - 0341006 on the front top of the head. I haven't been able to find anything with that number. It appears to be a cast iron head.

Thanks guys, with your help I was able to get them off!
