The Case gas tank is the reservoir for the hydraulic press. It is much too big for the requirements of the press alone. When I burned wood for heat I would bring in a wagon load of wood and use the pump on the press to raise the wagon to get the firewood to slide to the back. I needed a bigger reservoir to satisfy the big cylinder in the wagon hoist. This gas tank was what I had available to make a reservoir out of.
The Rambler has a 196 cube inline six and it has three on the tree with the old style overrunning overdrive. When the air conditioning worked the cold air came out of the top of the dash through two doors that can be flipped up. It was very cold air, did a good job. That little 6 cylinder didn't have much power to begin with and when the air conditioning was running it had even less. I will have to look at the carb again but I suspect the air conditioning kicked out when the throttle was wide open for passing another car (hah!). Maybe I am thinking of another vehicle from back in those days. I do plan to hang a spare gas tank because a new inline filter will probably plug right away.
Top end is 80 MPH so it is no speed demon and certainly not a mountain climber!!
I have watched that Vise Grip garage guy. It's fun to watch him. I am certainly not going to get this car in good enough shape for someone across the state to drive it home. The right front wheel just slides along so there is more than just power train to work on. A rear wheel was sliding making a black mark on the shop floor when I pushed it in but it might be in gear. The doors were frozen shut so I couldn't check the shifter and the loader tractor I used to push it didn't know it was pushing anything anyway.
