I will try to get under there. I knew it was somewhere there. My problem is that there may have been a change in the middle of 1978. The power steering pump is different. Want to get the right piece.

Where is the Engine number/block on 1978 DeVille 7 liter? I think it is somewhere in the back on passenger side(?) But can't find it. On my Restomod 1941 Cadillac. I don't have a data plate for 1978.

Don't know. I kind of like them. But not interested in creating new ones!

Early owner of our 1913 Marmon Speedster, Edith Mortimer, socialite. The story was that she kept telling her parents that she was going to Europe to snag a royalty. Marry him and become a countessa. She saw our 1913 Marmon and told daddy that this car would keep her in America. He bought it for her. She was involved in an accident, killing two men. Head on collision with their Model T Ford. After a lengthy and publicized trial but she was acquitted, (Daddy's money?), but public opinion continued against her. Daddy sold the car and suggested she go to europe for a while. She did and married an Italian Count

What a great adventure! I think there is a book in this. Wow is all I can say.

AMEN, brother! Life can be like that as well!

Life is a buffet. Pick the items you want and ignore the rest. Move on.

Not offended. I am easily NOT offended. But I try to be appropriate. If I can help, please let me know.

Though most of the comments are positive. I guess I should make better preamble to posting links. I did search before posting it to see if it had already had been done. Most of the negative comments tend to discourage making link posts. One was so acerbic that, for the first time (on this Forum) put him on my ignore list so that he will never be disturbed by me again. Let's do our best to promote learning in a brotherly loving manner for our hobby. When the few times I have felt making negative comments, this was done in private messages.

I have used Bill Squires to haul some of my old cars. He takes great care of them and is always on time. I highly recommend him. He is picking up a car in New York and bringing it home to me.

Two of the best car museums are The Savoy Automobile Museum. Part of a trilogy of world class museums. The other two as mentioned by Jim (and Grassy is still around) The Booth Western Art. Personally western art never was interesting to me, but the "Booth" blows me away! Stunning! The Tellus is science and industry. They have an observatory and sometimes open to the public. Savoy The Booth Tellus Another must see is Miles Through Time. Check it out on Facebook. Young man, Sean Mathis is the owner/curator Miles Through Time One of his must see exhibits in MTT is done by a local artist/craftsman Gary Russeth (https://russeth.com/. He makes incredible sculptures of car made entirely from wood! He also made a 1/2 scale model of the General Locomotive. We were part of a "Fast Brass Exhibit" with our 1913 Marmon 48B Speedster At the Savoy Automotive Museum. It is a huge car, 9.3 liters. 145" wheelbase. The Savoy put us with the "Big Boys." The Number 8 next to us is a 1909 Alco "The Black Beast" Twice winner of the prestigious New York's Vanderbilt Cup Race.

Stone Mountain Car and Music Museum closed about 20 years ago, sadly. Mark Hyman bought the inventory. Don't know about "Silver Dollar City." Just looked at their website. Looks like fun but didn't see any cars?

Post about Jay Leno's explanation when he got burned by a fire while working under his White Steam Car. He is very off hand about this and he has new smooth skin on his face! Jay Leno got steamed

Very helpful info! I will be checking for leaks. Yes, the toggle on the pump "PRESS" is trying to pressurize the tank. When the toggle is straight down, you can't pump the pump, solid pressure. The pump is working! I guess it does what you said when moved to "GRAV." Possibly my car was for sport touring, maybe racing. Researching was it owned by a wealthy socialite. Who liked fast cars

My electrical system has been upgraded to 12v I am exploring and making the original system to work. Electric pumps seem to be prone to failure. A good friend and brass car guy is using a Holley 12-801-1 Red Electric fuel pump. He has seen dismal results with other electric fuel pump failure and this one keeps working. He is my "go-to guy" on brass cars. He has put more miles on a brass car than about everyone else put together! I sure trust his judgement. I am buying one of these, and may stay in my toolbox unless needed. I am still trying to get the original system working. Having to take a break. One of my fuel injected 350 Chevvy Crate engine is acting up in my thinly disguised race car. Thinking about a Holley 750 CFM mechanical secondaries and down leg booster. I have the mechanical fuel pump. I have a lot of cars and they get jealous!
