Guest Posted February 15, 2004 Share Posted February 15, 2004 Well, I am starting a new project. I have a "barn find" 1929 Franklin 135 sedan that I am starting to restore. It is complete except for the Cigar and Vanity sets that mount to the walls of the rear compartment. See the attached page from the 1929 brochure for an idea of what they look like. I don't know if the same sets were used in other years or other makes of cars. I would greatly appreciate any information regarding this.I was lucky enough to find the front compartment cigar lighter under the rear seat yesterday. It retracts into the dash on the passenger side which was something that I had never heard of, but apparently Packards used a similar system.Thanks in advance for any help you can provide, Dave.
