Hi
MY name is Pedro
I`m calling from Portugal
I have a 1948 DeSoto, 6 cilinders.
I need a engine starter, and a bendix (new or rebuilt)
the numbers I have on my starter are:
1113119
MZ4133
5C060842
Can you help me
thank you
Pedro Pissarra
It's supposed to be fun!
1949 De Soto Custom Convertible (project)
I have one on my 48 parts car but it will need to be rebuilt. I could have it rebuilt and shipped but that would cost time and $$$. Do you know if he has a core? If he does his best bet would be to ship it to the US for rebuilding. I use Hunt Electric here in KC.
