I have never seen a VC only parts manual, it is included with the standard parts manual. Unfortunately it does not have diagrams of VC specific parts. Jim...

Does anyone know where I could purchase a 1951 VC parts manual? Reprint would be fine.

Mike....body color

Body color typically but the zinc plated might look pretty neat :) Sam

Daniel Strohl is at it again, good read that a lot of us can identify with. https://www.hemmings.com/stories/2020/08/06/how-many-cars-can-i-fit-in-my-garage-for-the-least-outlay-of-cash Jim...

Oh great knowledge collective of all things (Crosley), can you enlighten this unworthy soul with what color the hood hinges were from the factory on the CC models? Black / body color / zinc plated /

Park, What a great tip! It never occurred to me that the parts manual would list nuts, bolts, washers, etc. This is just what I am needing. The 1947 Roundside I am working on literally had every

Another tip I’ve learned: the Crosley parts manual is just as useful as the service manual. The parts manual includes exploded diagrams of most parts of the car, which help when you can’t quite

My two bits on the paint thing... my car got held up for 2-3 years because I didn’t have the tools or skills or money to paint it with a gun. After helping my son paint his Rambler using the

Skip, just curious, did you solve your brake problem? If so what was the problem? Jim...

The Keystone Region Crosley meet for this year, held during the third weekend in August, has been cancelled. Due to the Covid situation the venue where the meet is held decided to cancel all events

Here is August CotM. Enjoy http://crosleyautoclub.com/ If you want your Crosley or someone elses to be considered for CotM send me at least two pictures showing different parts of your

I will just repeat to be sure I was clear, even if the line or hose is blocked all but a pin hole, you will get full pressure in a static state. But it would take a long time of pressing the brake

There is a hose at the rear also. The hoses get old and plug up the inside and restrict flow. A common problem on older cars.

That's great hydraulic physics to know. After I disconnect the brake line, I'm gonna' attach the pressure gauge to the end of the brake line & see if there is any decrease in the pressure at the

The beauty of hydraulics is that the pressure at the end of the line no matter its diameter is the same as at the entrance, if not blocked, in a static state, ie: no movement. The volume of fluid

Thanx everybody. Your quick & informative responses were very helpful. It's very encouraging when you are stumped to have Crosley buddies to turn to. Many Thanx, Skip D

My calculations are nearly the same. Many reference materials say that on drum brakes you need +500 PSI at the wheel cylinders. I'm not a good enough mathematician to calculate the result of hydraulic

I only have hoses on the fronts, & I haven't gotten to them yet. That's good to know. Probably should replace all hoses to be sure. Thanx

All new wheel cylinders & replaced in the proper order. Thanx
