Wait! Don't close it yet! I need a front stabilizer bar for my '47 Super Clipper. The links have come out of the horizontal bar, and one has snapped.

Anyone ever rebuild a water pump?

The water pump on my 288 is growling. Both Kanter and Max Merritt sell a rebuild kit. Has anyone on this forum ever rebuilt their pump?
Thanks! Paul

How available are 356 engines?

My '47 Super Clipper is running well, but at some point in its life someone replaced the 356 with a 288. I'd like to have the original displacement motor, but I'm wondering how available they are. Also, are the block and head dimensions of a 288 smaller than a 356, or are the two blocks similar in size with only a different bore and stroke?
Thanks! Paul

Everything's working now--I swapped in the generator and regulator from my parts car, and now there's power.
Thanks everyone! Paul

Sorry to be such a bother, but...I hooked up my generator and regulator per the response to my previous post, but it's not charging. Is there a way to test the generator and regulator?
Thanks again. Paul

Thanks for the photos. I added oil to both shocks (they were dry), and the ride improved dramatically. The front end sits up about an inch higher, too.

Thanks for the quick responses! I'll try checking/adding fluid before I take anything apart.

Hi--I'm new to this forum, though I've perused the website several times before. I have a 1947 Super Clipper, and I may need to get the front shocks rebuilt. Is it necessary to compress the coil springs to remove the shocks?
Thanks!
