Are there any good books or web sites for those wanting to know more about early travel lighting, especially kerosene automobile lanterns? I am not having a lot of luck in getting to know more about this subject. Thank you.

The web site in the link below is the best site/forum I have ever discovered on detailing. I have belong to the site for several years now. They have helped me do the impossible and continue my mental illness of trying to keep my car spotless. http://autopia.org

John, thanks for your detailed response. You have confirmed what I suspected but thought I would ask before jumping. I am a subscriber to "Automobile Quarterly" so I am familiar with the article you mentioned. Again, many thanks.

John, My original post is an example why one should not post questions in the wee hours of the morning. Thanks for the humor and knowing what I was intending to ask.

Hello, Please recommend a must have book for the Stutz beginner; not just photographs but extensive history of the company too. Thank you.

I visit TheOldMotor.com every day. A great web site! All your efforts are very much appreciated!

History, manufacturers, types, etc.

I do the basic service on all my cars. Taking care of my car is almost an illness for me. I over do everything. With my newer cars it has taken me years to go from a 3,000 miles between oil changes to 5,000 miles between oil changes., and that's using synthetic oil (Mobil 1). On all my cars, new and old, I flush and replace coolant and brake fluid every two years. I am sure the person who buys a newer car and never services it, then waits until something must be done, probably comes out cheaper than I do given the time value of money. But for me there is peace of mind in knowing my car is less likely have an inconvenient unscheduled trip to the shop, will be best prepared for an emergency trip, and hopefully an added element of safety.

Hello, I am interesting in purchasing an automobile brass oil lamp. I am not looking anything in show condition. I only want something with a fairly decent appearance, complete and functional. I do not want a reproduction. This will serve as garage jewelry and used occasionally. Thank you.

Hello friends, I am seeking recommendations for books on the subject of prewar well made upper end cars both foreign and domestic. Cars like: Duesenburg, Peerless, Stuz, Hispano Suzia, Rolls, etc. I am looking books dealing more with these car makers, their history, and details of the cars themselves rather than picture books. I have always wanted to know more about this part of our history. Many thanks, David
