Howdy from me and my '31 5-Window Coupe - 04/27/16 01:48 PM
Howdy all,
I am new around here, but under the suggestion of Mr. Bill Barker I found my way over here. I can already tell this place will be a wealth of information. (and I'll need all the help I can get)
Little introduction, I live in the DFW Metroplex, I've got a 1931 5-window coupe currently stored at my granddads house. I plan on going and getting it from him soon, either May or June.
The car has been garaged since the early 60's, it has been restored here and there over the course of those years, never has "run quite right" but until about a year or two ago my granddad has kept it in "running condition".
Known issues:
Faulty starter switch (plan on purchasing new one from fillingstation.com)
Gas leaking into the oil, we suspect it is the fuel pump, though my granddad has had it replaced once.
Anyway, hope I won't be too bothersome, I am quite new to working on the mechanical side of cars, but am quite familiar with paint and body.
I'll post again when I get the car into my garage where I can work on it more regularly.
Looking forward to it!
I attempted adding a picture of it.
