Radrob
OK, I must say you may just become my new hero, just depends on how you answer these questions.....

Did you install the fuel gage sender? If so, where did you get it? Is it just a VDO sender, or one special for the type of Tank?

Reason I ask is that my '59 has an after-market fuel gauge installed when I bought it, but am having trouble finding a replacement sender that is attached to the filler neck.

BTW: Cool rides!

Either of them still have a 36hp engine?

radrob · Posted: Mon Oct 18, 2004 8:22 pm Post subject:

No but im hoping to get a 36hp from a friend and get it rebuilt for the iceland green one.

Going to leave the shifter on it when you install a 36 or go back to stock on it as well?
