  1. I've done 80mph with my '37 120CD touring sedan while going to work. One of my co-workers was following me and couldn't believe I could reach that speed with a stock straight eight. Told him I might have gone faster if traffic would have gotten out of my way.

  2. Can anyone help ID a More-Lite lens? The outer rim says More-Lite Lens Pat. May 23, 1917 D-7 1/2. The center has fluting (like the petals on a daisy flower) with a diameter of 1 7/8" and 16 flutes. After the fluted center are 4 rows of boxes on the lens going to the edge of the glass just before the starting edge of the rim. The fluted area and part of the glass lens with the boxes is 6 1/2" diameter while the total area including the rim is 7 1/2". Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

  3. There was a car at the top of the Forum page in the last several weeks. I believe that it was built around the 1930's with only a few of them were produced. It had a streamlined (aerodynamic) body and I think that the rear window was louvered but I don't remember the name and I can't find the picture. Any help would be great.

  4. What vehicles used Guide Ray Type A lenses? It would be a 7 3/4" diameter lens (9" dia. overall)

    What vehicles used the More Light lens? 7 1/2" dia. with a patent date of May 23, 1917?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
