Hello Marston,

I'm still unsure what the issue is as I have not had much time to troubleshoot. I did ours chase an aftermarket ignition switch and it still did not work. I'm open to any suggestions you may have as I will be running through the list of items mentioned in the thread. I'm leaning a lot about this car with all I have done so far. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Shane

The gear selector does seem off. I have to jam it to get it into park. I also do not have reverse which I though was a trans issue. I'll try messing with the linkage to see if there is any improvement. I appreciate all of the insight Howard, learning as I go.

It appears to be the neutral safety switch. Does anyone know where I can find one? I'm having a bit of trouble locating one.

Thanks in advance.

Thank you Howard. The battery is now at 12.6 V resting. The terminals and cables are clean. Do you know what the colts should be at the brown wire on the solenoid? I was thinking of replacing the safety switch next. It does ha e the ultramatic transmission.

Looking for some assistance on what to check as the starter will not crank. Resting voltage is at 12.68 volts. Car started fine a few months ago then wouldn't crank when turning the key. The only thing that changed between the two points in time was new transmission lines. I know the starter works as I tested it. Put in a new solenoid and still nothing. Have all dash lights, solenoid doesn't click. What else can I check? Based on the wiring diagrams, the solenoid is wired correctly. Tried a new ignition switch as well. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Anyone know where I can get some replacement trans lines? Thank you in advance.

Well....it is now.

I was able to get it fired up. I had the points misaligned when I was setting the gap. Now to find where it's leaking transmission fluid and we'll hit the road.

I will continue to look around locally. I have the other 3 cylinders, but nobody had the RF in stock. I'll stop and see if the can order one for me.

Do the '55 Clipper and other 55ths share the same wheel cylinders? I've been looking all over for a right front and finally found one, but the site states it's for a Patrician and will not fit a Clipper. I'm currently unable to get the bleeder screw out of the original unit, stopping me from rebuilding it.

Thank you in advance for any assistance.
