Does any have or know where I can get a new voltage regulator for my 1939 Series 92 car?

Thanks

    These things are on Ebay all the time (well, not at the moment, but often, LOL!).  Or, check your WTN classifieds.

    I think that the 1939 uses AutoLite VRD-4008A but check your parts manual. There is a lot of interchange on these regulators, and I'm sure someone will jump in here with a few of them.

    Thanks Jon and yes the 39 does take that part number. I do hope others will post alternate numbers as I don't know what crosses over

    Jon , According to the AutoLite manual the 1939 series 92 takes a VRR 4001B   regulator. This is the regulator that superceeded the VRD 4008B .

    Lance,  I wasn't aware of that but by the Hudson Mechanical Procedure Manual 1934 thru 1939 my car takes the VRD-4008A.  The VRR 4001B may have been an update and maybe one I can also search for?

    Here is a "replacement" regulator that is supposed to fit your car.  Unless you're up a creek, I'd hold out for an original AutoLite one of the exact same part number you seek, but in a pinch one of these aftermarket ones might work just fine.
