'59 Plymouth Forum

BTW, Henry, was there an accompanying letter, one that decoded the dealership, perhaps?

All's wheel that ends wheel!

What a gummy, filthy mess. It’s a wonder it worked at all :oops: First stop, my favorite cleaner - isopropyl alcohol: 499350828_10108058705975427_1351501491696401115_n.jpg It’s whadimtawkinaboud!

I find it curious, too, Roland! Here's what the Chrysler parts manual says (the first column being Plymouth):

Ron Waters, however, says the switch was the same 1955-1959 regardless (although the early years could have had cloth insulation). Go figure!

After my grandson sitting behind the wheel "driving" the Fury - and, me forgetting to remove the turn signal lever before his visit - the pot metal screw hole in the switch plate took a beating, and the lever started to flop around. Fortunately, I had NOS plate in my stash, so I undertook ...

I wonder if the front bumper also has a detent for the rubber, or if its simply glued on.. Will Walker has a project car that has these rubber bumpers - here are some pix, and a convo I had with Will: 494577097_1235436634820219_6478432371246586056_n.jpg 494578797_2166487833793072_225618946480415415...
