Dodge1934

great to see thee old pictures and know they got passed down the family.. Hopefully they will get passed down a few more generations as well with the history.

I have a 1919 Northway engine with a gear driven generator and "copper" mesh brushes... it is a REMY model 307A I have had several of these engines and have only ever had 2 generators one of which has a broken casting. When I opened up the one complete generator the brush area looked like it had had an unhappy life... sorry no pictures of this. I disassembles the unit and cleaned it up but was surprised to see mesh brushes ( First car this old) but on careful examination I noticed the edges of all 4 brushes were frayed... see picture... My thoughought was that this maybe causing the brush to be effectively too wide and when it is touching the armature it could be touching up to 3 sections of the armature rather than just 1 section. Would this or does this cause grief for the generator in some way? I am thinking that I should update to carbon type brushes . Does anybody have any experience doing this and was it a good result? I don`t believe this engine had very many miles on it at all based on the conditions of some of the parts I have collected off of it. I would be pleased to hear your thoughts Don

I love this type of item. I have never seen one and this is the first picture I have seen. Thanks for sharing the picture

Interesting. I have a 1919 McLaughlin with a Northway demand a related drive train I went through 3 rear ends before I found an intact crown and pinion . There was an adjustment available for this. I think many folks misadjusted the setting which caused damage to the system FYI

Does the 1919 Oakland have a Northway engine? I have a 1919 McLaughlin with a Northway which is under restoration. There used to be a Northway engine registry but that was years ago and I was never able to find anyone that knew anything about it.

If you hear of anyone making them from metal I am interested too. I think the 34 Dodge DT is the same.

I am looking for plugs from this era (Teens)but need 7/8 likely Z or AA do you have any of those? Also would you have a catalogue from the 20`s that has the listing for AC spark plugs?The oldest I have is from 39 just before the next change in numbering system for AC. If you can help even on a copy of the listings that would be appreciated Thanks Don

This is a search for a guy I work with. I am looking for leads for 1957 to 1959 Cadillac convertible. it should be restored or a very good original. A couple of picture and a price and a way to contact the person and I will pass it on. I look forward to your replies Don

Lots of makers made them in the day . They were an extra extra long plug They are just very rare

Does danybody know of a source of the belting for these snubbers. I thoought somebody addressed this but not in this thread I guess.

Are you still looking or did you get what you needed Let me know Thanks

US made ( Cleveland). The stamped name is not very sharp and the mounting brackets on the 2 units are different but they are standard mounts found on these units . No axles mounts with this pair. Price $110.00 plus shipping see pics below Ask any questions you may have.

Patented in 1922, Knight Rebound Controllers. (Similar to Gabriel snubbers) need restoration. Back mounting brackets are not the same. I do not have pairs of axle mounts. Price is $150.00 US funds per pair plus postage. see pics below Ask any questions you have.

Canadian built, patented in 1914, #2 Gabriel snubbers,. Need to be restored ( this is the second set I had) Price is $150.00 US funds plus shipping see pics ask questions if you have them.

Sorry I missed your post...(watching football) I`ll get you pictures this coming Sunday

The Canadian built snubbers have been sold. Others are available. drop me a note with your needs.. they are in varying condition. I will get more posted when it warms up. Yes still available ... sent email

the pics below are of an early distributor/ coils/magneto?, can anybody tell me what year and motor this was used on. Thanks It is for sale at $150.00 US funds plus postage

I don`t have any axles clamps I`m will to sell separately at this time. I don`t have enough for the snubbers I have and I don`t have pairs at this time.

With the Dodge brothers tag on it this must have been a standard part of an early Dodge car ... or is there more to the story
