thanks guys, i have downloaded the manual and will start disassembly tuesday or wed. even though i am ASE certified a vehicle this old is a far cry from a modern Chevy.

Dave

OK, my fuel gauge stopped working. it is one of those liquide filled in the dash models. it does not appear to be leaking it just doesn't work. is there anyone who knows how to properly repair these? i will be removing it from the car this weekend, i am going ti try and blow out the lines first. but i figure i would ask about repair incase i need the service. have any of you dealt with this problem before?

thanks, for the help.
Dave

thanks for the help everybody.
i have removed the photo's to free up band width.

Dave

OK, folks.
update.
it has a 140 inch wheel base.
and the numbers listed are correct.
the engine number matches the VIN.
and he stated the wheels are original chrome but were re-chromed in the 70's.

the owner has owned the car since 1974.
Dave

Ok folks.
here are the numbers.

number on firewall <054632>

data plate info.
VIN - 139838
Newark, NJ - AUG 1 1929
center space is blank, no name.

did not have time to measure the wheel base or check the eng. number. only had 5 min. to get numbers.

so,what type and model is it?

thanks, Dave

ps - 4 doors on side's of hood.

what, where should i look for these numbers?
there is a data plate in the eng. compartment.
and a big number pressed into fire wall.
if these are whats needed i will copy next time he comes over.

sorry, i don't know much about these type of cars.
