----[Please read http://ercoupers.com/disclaimer.htm before following any advice in this forum.]---- Chuck, the 6 inch tubes, or 5" tubes, can be ordered at any tire store, (Tractor Supply Store) will stock them, some have the brass air stem, and the others are the standard air stem, but the 4" is something that I can not find in a trailer. Some of your tailwheel tubes can be found as fork lift tubes. I think the first year that a car used 12v was 1954 Chev. go to the parts store and ask for a 1954 Chev voltage reg., then match, usually anything that was using a 12v system in 1946, "farm tractors", again (Tractor Supply Store), just make sure that it is not a 6v regulator, the job of the regulator is to stop charging then the battery is full of charge, or top capacity, 12v., I have used the small tractor batteries in the planes, they have the same conections, the same size, and are $17.95, at Auto Zone. --- Chuck Stransky <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Regarding your e-mail (Regulator-standard parts). > I'm looking for a source > that sells 6.00 x 6 and 5.00 x 4 tires and tubes, > new or good used and a > voltage regulator that will work in a coupe.
