Dodge flat head 6

Our old WW2 vintage aircraft tug has been having problems lately. I need a source for parts and technical information. For sure needs a tune up and the carb overhauled. Anyone point me in the right direction?

It's my pot and I'll stir it if I want to. If you're not careful, I'll stir your's as well!

Last year I was asked to get a very old Ford running properly and discovered that the old carb had a badly distorted body. Could not locate the same model carb from any source. It was a Mexican Ford with a different carb to the Canadian or American Fords. Eventually I sent photos of the carb to National Carburetors and from the pics they found a match.and actually had one in stock. Bought it and it worked perfectly so maybe try these guys. Notice that they have a section for ; All American Antique Carburetors 1939-1969

I'll check them out. Biggest part of the problem is most of the ID tags have gone away so there is going to be a lot of finding a new part that "looks" like the old part. And as we all know, the picture in the catalog doesn't always accurately represent the actual part. The tug was built by Clarktor. So far the people I've talked to at Clark aren't very helpful.
