I tend to agree with you that the engine pictured must have been the prototype and not the production engine. Its too nice! However,there it is in black and white. I have had my share of exotic overhead cam engines,having owned 3 Model J Duesenberg cars and 4 spare Model J engines from 2006 to 2008.I'm sticking with overhead cam Model A and B race cars now. Easier and cheaper to work on!Geo.

WNTD: 1931-33 Canadian Frontenac De Vaux cars,engine.Leads?
George Albright replied to George Albright's topic in Durant
The car currently on Ebay is the De Vaux USA model with the Col. Hall designed flathead 6 built by Continental. I am looking for the SOHC six put in the Canadian built Frontenac models. Again I might be mistaken,and the engine pictured might only be a prototype,and the Fronentac might have ALSO used the flathead 6 Continental used in the De Vaux cars in the USA. We need a Frontenac owner to step forward and enlighten us! Thanks,George<!-- google_ad_section_end --> -

It appears the Canadian built Frontenac used a SOHC six,but I am not certain. All USA made De Vaux cars used the Continental flathead six designed Col. Hall. It is possible that the engine pictured was just a prototype engine,and not used in the production Frontenacs. Hopefully a Frontenac owner will weigh in. Geo.

WNTD: 1931-33 Canadian Frontenac De Vaux cars,engine.Leads?
George Albright posted a topic in Durant
Dear Friends I am looking for one of the 1931-33 SOHC engines ,built by Van Ranst and Louis Chevrolet for the Canadian built Frontenac Six Automobiles,built by Dominion Motors of Toronto,successor to Durant of Canada. I would consider a complete car also. The same basic car was built in Michigan and Oakland California as the 1931-33 De Vaux car,with a flathead six engine designed by Col. Hall but actually built by Continental Motors. They used many left over parts from the Durant Automobile. Attached is a photo of Van Raust and Chevrolet with the motor I am looking for. This is from the Borgeson book written in the 1960s. Leads appreciated.Please pass this on to the DeVaux Registry and other De Vaux car owners. I will be at Hershey.

Wanted either a set of 2 or 4 hubs to bolt onto my 1905 30 x 3 Midgley wood wheels off of a 1905 Cadillac. Sorry no Model T Ford ones please. The wood spokes are approx 1 1/4 inch thick. The outside flanges of the hubs need to be either 6 1/2 or 6 3/4 ish across. I have two 1900-10 hubs that are slightly smaller at 5 1/2 inches across that I will trade.Leads appreciated. Will be at Hershey Tues. to Thurs. George Albright,Ocala,Fla. cell 352 843 1624 email gnalbright@gmail.com<!-- google_ad_section_end -->
