As someone who came of age on West 43rd. Street between 10th. and 11th - I
feel uniquely qualified here to relay the bad news that 141 East 44th. is
now the Fitzpatrick Grand Central Hotel.

Since I now avoid NYC like the plague, it is up to another member of the
club - or pehaps a Posse - to spend a weekend there snooping around the
bowels of the building in search of any treasures that may have been left
behind ! Just tell the staff you're looking for buried treasure and be
sure to bring that old ad.
There are some good K parts cars on ebay right now - although I know
nothing
about them other than running acroos the auctions. On in SoCal and one
in
Texas.
Summertime greetings to all those in the "sunny" Southwest who always
remind
of their weather in January. =o)
84 degrees and breezy here in Virginia.....

Subject: '62 Linkage Measurement
How does one accomplish the angle measurement between the drivers floor
& the gas pedal when adjusting out the throttle linkage?

Subject: Re: Starting my Hemi w/o trans on
David,
The safest way to start your engine and test run it is to use a standard
bell housing to bolt the starter to and a flywheel. You won't need a
clutch or pressure plate, just the flywheel which has a starter ring gear
for the starter to engage with. Many Dodge trucks in the mid-50s used Hemi
engines so there should be some around. I have a flywheel and bell housing
from a 1954 2-ton truck if you can't find one closer. E-mail me privately
if you need more info.
This might be more trouble than just bolting the complete transmission and
radiator on and run the engine on the floor. I have used a junk front
section of frame to make a temporary engine stand for this. The one I used
was from a 1960 that had a sub-frame bolted to the unibody with just a few
bolts. Works great, since it even has provisions to bolt the radiator
support, motor mounts, and tranny mount. The one I used even still had the
front wheels and could be rolled outside to run. A simple trailer hitch
welded on could make it something that could be shared with other club
members close to your location.
Don't try to use just the converter, You'll take a chance on ruining it
and make a real mess. Either use the complete tranny with Fluid or get a
flywheel and bell housing.

I'm considering starting up the Hemi before wrestling the transmission on
the engine. The purpose is to make sure, with the least amount of
tear-down, that all the seals hold oil(rear main and end pan seals). My
concern is that to do this I need to install the torque converter. How
does the converter like running without the transmission assembled to it?
Any ideas or thoughts out there? All input is appreciated.

Hi David (Zak) Zakarian,
Good to hear from you. I remember your visit. Yes, I still have the
300 C Convertible.
I work on it from time to time along with several trucks I've rebuilt.
Right now have a 65 L
hardtop I need to put a paint job on. Runs fine. May sell the "65 L". But
not the 300 C
Convertible. Sold two cars last summer to Benny Buckner in West Virginia.
He brought
trailer from West Virginia to buy one, then saw the other, and wanted it
too.

Subject: Re: '62 Linkage Measurement
One way to do it is to trace out the desired angle on a piece of cardboard
with a grade school protractor and cut it out for a pattern you can fit on
the floor and against the pedal. I usually adjust the linkage for full
throttle opening, with the gas pedal just touching the floor mat first,
then I check to see what the angle is.

Mr. Jugle and Others,
I believe I have the ad of which you speak. Purchased it from a literature
dealer years ago. Shows a white 4 door hardtop on bottom and the leather
interior on the top correct? (A two page ad) Do you or anyone else out
there
know what magazine this came out of? I always thought it may have come
from
a trade magazine or something a bit off the beaten path because I've never
seen another one. Does anyone know if there was a series of similar ads
including something with the 300B?
