checker

There is 1 Checker model A known to still exist. You either love it or hate it. I love it. It's a beauty that I would love to own.

Sorry, What I was saying is Checker used the Oldsmobile Diesel in the early 80s.

From the factory Checker never had a Detroit diesel. In the 1960's Checker used Perkins diesels, and Oldsmobile in the 80s.

Hi and welcome to the forum. I sent you a message. Doug

Thanks for the update Marty.

I know Jim well. He liked my Facebook post earlier today on the Barrett Jackson Auction, where I will soon post some AACA cars that where there.

That lines up well with what I thought. What's the former Checker employees name? I know a few of them.

Chuck, my 1958 Checker is Studebaker and my 1972 is a stock GM Saginaw. 1966 I'm unsure but what part are you looking for? I can ask around.

I've always loved the Checker model A although I can see why some would hate it. Only 1 is known to remain.

Looks solid although the interior could use a revamp. Rare car.

Jon, I've spoken to the owner (Vic Owens) several times (different number). He claims it's a junk yard. Could indeed be both. When I googled it I discovered several business names.

Thanks John, I was just reading up on that and the rod adjustment for the governor.

Thank you John, it's interesting that my Jaguar Transmission Service Manual has the exact same photos and band adjustment procedure with the tool yet omits the procedure without the tool. Snug then back off 4 turns. Sounds easy enough. Thanks again.

I have a Jaguar Service Manual that I have read cover to cover (more or less) but did not see the procedure. I would gladly try the instructions you mention and would appreciate a pic of it. Thanks.
