Thanks for responding. Attached is a drawing of what I have. It is from my 36 Lincoln. Since I plan to use

the rubber molding referred to in this post I would hope your Packard ones are close to this.

Was just down your way last week and expect to be back in a couple weeks, Lancaster area correct?

Vintagerodshop that rubber is perfect, but I also need the metal trim that holds it in place. I know I've seen it but can't locate the source.

Thank you for that information. I'll look into it. My car is a KA  Detrich Convertible Coupe, nearly ready for the first ride.

I am looking for a project for my son and I. Ideally it would be a stalled restoration with engine mechanical work done, some chrome done.

My time is limited and I don't want to start with a car that will need to come apart, haven't bought a car together for 30 years.  Since I am well aware

of end values of these cars and could buy one all tickety boo this is more about time with my son so its more about the right car. We are both

accomplished steam car people so not much frightens us. Thanks for the ebay tip.

Have had many sets of wood wheels redone mostly by Bill Calimer recently had a set by Studzman. There is no comparison,Calimer

by far is the best, not cheapest but best.

I have a 1933 and need a picture or drawing of the shaft that is used on the cowl side vents, have the vents and the lever but no rod.

Thanks John Kelso

On most of these cars I've seen "naked" the lead was factory, usually to fill the seams where a body was put together.

Quite common in the classic era

[Going in deep]

I learned lead work in the 60's, and still use it on occasion. I see no reason for you to remove it, I wouldn't.

Thanks John, I know I saw it a few years ago too. Was working on early 30 Auburn's at that time and they used the same moulding

Does anyone know of a source for the molding as pictured. It is attached to the top and windshield and holds the L shaped rubber that seals the door glass

on a 1933 Lincoln Convertible Coupe. Have seen it used on other Classic era cars.

Thanks, John Kelso

The Surrey I posted the picture of uses an Ottaway Burner with Maxwell Pilot. Works quite well

[Locomobile Steam Gathering Place]

It was my understanding that the burner just went into a lower flame,or at least thats how mine worked.
