Gror's rebuild

<< < (6/10) > >>

houlio:
The orginal gasket material had dried up and we didn't find one with the exact measurements.  I found one extremely close through Goodall Canada. 

The small back windows would not fit back, so we built a depth jig with the same arc as the original window and clamped it to a die grinder.  This allowed us to take off the right amount of material to put the window in.

I measured my small window opening for you grfishmaker . Hole is 6 3/8 inches and the glass is 6 inches. Just to let you know my plywood is not original so dont know how accurate that is. Windows seem to fit ok but there is a 1/4 inch gap in my rubber. Hope this helps you.

Hey Swampdawg do you have a part number for that remote oil filter holder and  engine block plate to go on oil filter mount. If you do it would help me out a bunch. Appreciate your pics of your 52 rebuild helping me out in all ways. Thanks gror.

Swamp Dawg:
The engine block plate is a custom unit we made. I can post pictures of it if you would like.  As for the part number, I'll see if I can find that out for you.

gror:
Picures would help a lot ,I have a machinest here that can build anything  from a picture.
