    "NEW" 1927 REO brass cowl light buckets "For Sale"

    Back in the late nineties I restored the body on a 1927 Reo Flying Cloud rumble seat coupe. The owner also asked me to do what I could with the disintegrating brass cowl light buckets. I found a gentleman in California that made me two pairs (one for the car and a "Plan B" set).
    We didn't use the second set so here they are for sale. I would like $150.00 for the pair and I'll include the shipping to the lower 48. You can contact me through the AACA mail system.
    For a bit more I'll ship anywhere else on planet earth. I've also included some pictures of the body from start to finish.

    Re: "NEW" 1927 REO brass cowl light buckets "For Sale"

    I just bought a 1927 REO Flying Cloud Sports Coupe. The problem is someone has replaced some of the top wood and the sheetmetal from the beltline up. In doing so they eliminated the rear side windows. Also, the running boards and the floor and sides of the rumble seat area are also missing. Looks like you redid these same areas on the car in you restored. Do you have any other pictures that may detail how I can reconstruct these areas?

    The car has 28" wheels on it. Are those correct? I thought the Flying Cloud had 30" wheels. The wheelbase is 121", which is a Flying Cloud.

    I tried sending an e-mail to you, but it came back as undeliverable.

    I also live in Washington, just north of Seattle.

    It also has what appears to me to be a 1931 Plymouth or DeSoto front bumper. I suppose it could also be from a 1932 Chevrolet.
    1931 Dodge Brothers DH6 business coupe w/ wire wheels
    1931 Dodge Brothers DH6 business coupe w/ wood wheels (my 1st car and still have it)
    1967 Dodge A100 V8 compact pickup
    and visions of my past old cars

    It didn't look like a REO bumper. Thanks for the feedback.

    In case anyone is interested in the cowl light buckets, they are still available. Please make me an offer I can't refuse.
