Well I may be the odd man out. The last issue of the HCCA magazine that I looked at had a twenty year old or younger person on every other page. When I started collecting in 1960, my mentor told me Brass cars were "over" as few remembered them from their youth. I am glad I didn't believe him. What I did learn was that quality cars will grow in value and more common cars will not. My advice is buy the best that you can afford. That is true for cars of any age. If you plan on touring, where the real fun is, buy something that can keep up. Johnny

We have a few spaces left in our Best of the West CARavan planned for May 13-23. This will be a modified hub tour, spending multiple nights at most hotels. It will average about 100 miles a day and will have no freeways, a great tour for early Classics. There are currently 37 cars paid up, so we have room for maybe 4/5 more. We will start and end in Sacramento. After visiting the Delta we will spend 4 days exploring the Gold Country and its beautiful roads and quaint foothill cities. We will then head to the Napa Valley for four days where we will travel out to the coast, visit some wineries, have lunch in the redwoods and see an incredible car collection. Those of us on the committee have worked for free for a year to provide you the best tour at the best value. For more information, go to the the CCCA website or message me. Johnny Crowell

Still available ??? Johnny

Just to offer my help, I do have some spare mags, including a Berling dual, two spark (six cylinder) very rare, and a Bosch ZR4 dual, ( four cylinder) two spark as shown above. Both allow for dual plugs which really help big T heads. Johnny

Hey Al might sell the unrestored 31 rdst. Interesting build sheet. Johnny

Photo says 1915 at Diablo Country Club 1916

Here's another one that I may not have posted. 1906 H ?

The postcard is from Heritage Plantation .

Sold. The 1930 one off convertible coupe has found a great new owner who is going to restore it as his "last hurrah". Great buyer. Great car. Hope to see it at Pebble Beach. Thanks for all the help. Johnny

According to Ron Van Gelderen and Matt LArson authors of LaSalle, Cadillac's Companion Car the change took place in 1929, for the first time. LaSalle ads of 1929 clearly tout the new britework.

Nice crisp ride....... about 60 degrees.

If you send me a pm, I will share what I know about this particular car.

Restored from very good original. One of only two factory color options, I believe. Here's a photo from the time and another picture.

Still looking for a buyer on the great one off convertible coupe. Here is my final Cad photo. We were carefully looking it over before purchase. I know that it has the incorrect trunk. This addition is why the Fisher is for sale. I can only afford and care for so many.
