Re: connection inner fender panel to frame

You are probably right! I notice that there are a series of holes along the bottom edge of the panels that probably held the rubber in earlier years.

I am unfamiliar with your car but I do have a 37, 120 and the inner panels do not connect to the frame. I would be surprised if they do as the body and frame need to wiggle and you would not want the panels interfering with that movement. My panels connect to the fender along the upper ridge and to the radiator.

Re: core for 38 deluxe heater

It has taken me some time to locate the information I got at Hershey this past year but finally found it. I have a 37, 120 with the circular heater which I had to have repaired this past year. The shop told me that if it leaked again they would not be able to fix it so I too have been trying to find a replacement.

Universal Carnegie Manufacturing Co says they can make circular cores. Their information is as follows:

Universal Carnegie Mfg.
66A Arch Street Ext.
Carnegie, PA 15106
800-867-9554
www.ucvintagerad.com

Hope that helps,

Re: 37, 120 spark plug wires

Thanks for the information. Does anyone know of a vendor that sells kits ready to install? I would prefer to buy a set of correct length wires with terminals installed then starting from scratch with a coil of wire and some loose terminals.

37, 120 spark plug wires
#15

What color should the spark plug wires be for a 37,120C? I have had the car for three years now and it is time to change out the wires as they are getting brittle. The exiting wires are yellow/orange snake skin. It seems to me that maybe they ought to be black? I see that Max Merritt sells wire sets. Does anyone know what color the sets are?
Thanks for the help,

37 120 ignition points replacement and timing
#17
Just can't stay away
Just can't stay away

rvsls
I replaced the ignition points this weekend in my 37 120 coupe convertible and it was not easy, at least the way I did it. Is there an easy way to install the stud without removing the distributor? Secondly, I now need to check the timing. I have read the manual and it talks about looking in the hole under the starter. Again, is there a trick to looking in the hole and setting the distributor timing?
Thanks for any advise,
Rod

Re: Seat Belts in 115C

rvsls
I have a 120 coupe convertible and have been assessing how and where to install seatbelts. Your finished project looks great but how did you do it? Where did you put the holes in the floor pan and how did you reinforce the pan for the potential strain of the belts? I have been trying to determine how I can attach the belts directly to the frame?
Thanks for any pictures or advise,

37 120 speedometer head removal
#20
Just can't stay away
Just can't stay away

rvsls
It appears my speedometer head has frozen up and I am going to have to remove the unit from the dash. The cable has already been removed so the only other thing connected to the speedo is the light which is easy to remove.

My question is do I have to remove the speedo from the dash or can that section of the dash be removed with the speedo intact? There is no other instrumentation on that section and it has screws on the underside that can be easily removed. What hold the dash panel on at the top or elsewhere?

Looks like removing the dash panel to work on the speedo would be the easy way to go? Anyone's thoughts?

thanks,

Rod
