No, Ed......It had a flathead six cylinder and the wells around the spark plugs would fill up with water if it rained. The cure was to take Kleenex tissues and sop up the water. Once I got everything dry it fired right up....
ed monahan	I didn't know it didn't have a hood to keep the rain off of it. lol
ALLEY CAT	quote: "The cure was to take Kleenex tissues and sop up the pre-mess I made.... Once I got everything dry it tried to fire up.... but just wouldn't respond" BJ,,,That's what several girls in your senior class wrote in their yearbooks around your picture,,,,,,your old '47 Plymouth had several boxes of Kleenex within,,,for just that purpose.. Sad,,,very sad......
tangled up in BLUE	...don't take that crap B J, ...ACs dated a farm girl, her name was Baaaaabra...he loved her curly blond locks and was devastated when the farmer had her shaved for her wool
padroo	My first car was a 1947 Ford Club Coupe I drove in high school in 1967. At that time they were all off the road except mine. It is in my garage now waiting to be restored some day, I hope? Flatheads forever!
JeraneW	Let's keep on topic. My first car was that 1935 Plymouth. My best car is the 2001 Prowler.
