  1. I agree with Jeff above. All the effort and money is in the engine and rear end. Nothing else special or unique about it. Loads of fun for sure - but not for me.
  2. I was offered a correct 1922 Bulldog for $45K. The price is way optimistic. Fenders look like 29 Franklin. A serious defect that can be corrected, but if you have priced four new fenders lately, you will be shocked.
  3. One needs to be a little careful - they made two different wheelbases. The long wheelbase is the one to get. The short wheelbase has a bigger cutaway in the rear door. Cars look superficially identical. By the way, I have always been a big fan of these.
  4. Always wonder where people get their prices. This is an $8-12K car. Most people would rather have a model A.
  5. This car is a mess. I commented about it before. The top is bogus. The bumpers front and back are home made. It needs a total restoration and many parts sourced. Having said that, it is a Locke roadster. I could not guess the actual value. I would not pay more than $25K, but I have better all original cars so I am biased.
  6. Incorrect rear fenders. Depending on when it was made, the intake should be aluminum. I'd like to know the engine number. In any case, modest price.
  7. The side mount mirrors are garbage reproductions. Deposit directly into metal recycling. The fender lights are off a Packard. The correct Ryan-lite fender lights are rare. Color is appalling in my opinion. The club sedan is rare however, and quite appealing. I do not know if Franklin used leather on the back quarter, but I would want to know. The interior looks serviceable, but is far from correct. These are great running and driving cars. I would get rid of the radiator ornament - I'm a purist like Walt. Finally, the bar between the headlights is upside down. I would approach carefully. If the restorer was careless with the above items, did they reuse the old valves instead of installing new ones? Very often I see the mechanical following the quality of the rest of the restoration. But who knows - maybe the guy was a great mechanic.
  8. I would have died and gone to heaven if I could have had this car when I was 20...
  9. The car is being shown at 'Woodies on the Wharf'. Hundreds of woodies from all over. It's a significant event.
  10. I like this car. I would own it. However, as George T mentions, it's going to need work. The colors are good, but the interior would need to go. Also, the tires are undersized. When it go down to $8500, I would go look at it. There's plenty of other cars out there to choose from. Just my thoughts.
  11. The car behind it is a 1915-18 or so Scripps Booth.
  12. On the passenger side. Anyone know if this Lincoln is for sale? Always looking. Brian
  13. this car has 33x5 Lester whitewalls on it. Correct for this year. Plan on buying new tires for it.
  14. Smells like a car from a foreign country. South American? Not sure the other year cars offered with it have any interchangeable parts for this one.
