According to motorcycle collector Mark Pospisil,the motorcycle transmission has been identified as for a big twin Harley.They started using this style gearbox in 1936. The clutch is 1940 or earlier. I do not know how long after 1940 this same box was used with a post 1940 style clutch. Hope this helps the bidders. George

Below are photos of my auctions of the 1900-04 car project and parts on Ebay,listed under Ebay poster name "invision2000" The word "horseless" is in each auction title for easy search purposes. Photos of each auction avail. by email; gnalbright@gmail.com George Albright

SORRY! Poster name is invision2000 NOT invision 2000 George PS I have now fixed that in the text of the earlier thread

Attached are photos of my 1900-04 car project and parts I listed on Ebay under Ebay poster name"Invision2000" Photos avail by email to me at gnalbright@gmail.com George Albright PS The word "horseless" is in the title of every auction,for easy search purposes.

PLEASE help me ID this trans. so I can represent it correctly! If you know,what bike and years it came from please email me at gnalbright@gmail.com THANKS! George Albright .Up for Ebay auction # 260516338832 is a circa 1920-39 motorcycle trans I have had since 1994 when I bought it with 3 trailers of brass era horseless carriage and motorcycle motor cycle parts from the Jim Lynch collection in Canton Ohio. I took photos of it to Hershey in 1995 and one knowledgeble dealer told me it as either a 1920s or 1930s Harley Davidson or Indian transmission. I don't remember what he said,but I put it in storage from 1995 until now. Sorry no other motorcycle parts! My knowledge of motorcycles is limited;thus I am setting it as a no reserve auction and let the market determine the price. The transmission is stamped on the bottom "121 35" Thus this might be transmission #131 from 1935. I simply don't know. Could be for a 1920,1921,1922,1923,1924,1925,1926,1927,1928,1929, 1930,1931,1932,1933,1934,1935,1936,1937,1938,1939 bike.The inside sprocket is not original and was used to drive block chain,not regular chain like the outward two sprockets. I removed the transmission from a 1903 Conrad automobile,where it had been used as the transmission in that car. Other than removing the non original most inside sprocket,the transmission,and clutch assembly looks good and complete. The case does not have any visible stress cracks. Stored inside since at least 1940! The case itself is 10 inches wide,and the entire assembly is 15 inches if you add the clutch assembly. Outside diameter of the clutch housing at its widest diameter is 7 inches. Looks like its had little use. I suspect this piece is quite rare and valuable,and may even go to something other than a Harley or Indian. You have to be the judge. Shipping is a flat $100 for crating and shipping to the lower 48 states.Please pay by check or wire. Email questions or request for photos to me at gnalbright@gmail.com Good Luck!

Dear Bryan I am TRULY humbled for you taking all of the time to do this research! I just spoke to Dan Sheler,who owned the car in the 1980s,but went to Harris Hariss? house in 1963 to view the car and speak with him. Sheler provided the photo and info for the Clark/Kimes book,shown at the beginning of this posting. Sheler did say he went back to see Hariss Harris? several years later,and that he had died. Thus you may be on to the right guy! I believe it is important to put the history with this car,as we are merely stewarts of them for future generations. This research only happens with our old car community working together. Plus its fun! Thanks again. George PS KEEP DIGGING!

There are several sets of repro Ford A lights just like this on Ebay right now,reasonable. Don't know who mad them. Thanks also for the tip on the knockoff hubcaps! Would like to find a real set of 19 inch knockoff wheels and hubs for this car also. Anyone got any? Leads?Geo.

Thanks for the answer.I need a set of lights,rather than a single. Plus they need to be mid to late 20s, NOT with a mounting fork,but instead a mounting bracket like 30s cars. Finally I need a set with a diameter of 7-9 inches,as ones with 10-12 inch diameter will be to large for the cars scale. Thanks,George PS The coffee can running/fog lights are made by S & M,of Los Angeles Calif.

Dear Friends: Greetings. Thought you might like to see my latest car,built in early 1970s by Duesenberg collector Jim Talmadge,who was film star Buster Keetons son. I bought it from Tamladges son Michael,who is now 62 years old.Jim found the authentic 2 man body in a building in Indianapolis around 1970.He was told it was off of a Miller Indy car. Has a HAL sohc head on a Model A Ford block, and shortened chassis,and twin Winfield carbs. Jim built the rest of the body,from the firewall foward. It runs like the wind! I want to find a pair of "coffee can" headlights for the car,to match the 'coffee can' fog/running lights on it. Does anyone have any,or have a lead for me? The headlights should be around 8 inches or a little larger,in diameter. Many mid 1920s cars used the coffee can type,like Husdon,Essex,Olds,Etc.Would prefer totally chromed or nickel ones. Also want to find a period set of 4-6 knockoff wheel hubcaps,that I can attach over the top of the factory Ford 4 inch hubcaps currently on the car,to make the wheels kind of look knock off.

Thanks for the thoughts. I went to the Detroit Public Library,the Gilmore Museum,and the Detroit Daily News obit section. Nothing! The car has been picked up but is still in a warehouse in Detroit. Hope to have soon,and will give a full report with photos. Sincerely George

There is a matched pair on Ebay right now that will probably go for around a grand,and a separate single that I believe is the same as the pair. There is always several on Ebay at once. I believe in 6 months you could assemble a set of 4. Geo.

There are 4 or 5 Winfield carbs on Ebay right now.

THANKS for the tip,for me and others! George
