  1. 70 degrees here. Enjoying a 38 v-16. Notice the original mileage. Lots of negatives in California but the weather is great....
  2. Some are still in transit. I will post a list in a few days. Johnny
  3. I did buy quite a bit of literature which I will be happy to share. Johnny
  4. There are lots of other clues....... but Loco would have never terminated the metal in such a sloppy way. Look at other real roadsters.
  5. I do not was originally built as roadster. Many reasons. First is the panel between the body and the running board. Does not meet flush with rear fender........ probably from a touring. Johnny
  6. Some of us believe that those dust pans can contribute to fires, especially with updraft carbs that release spare gas when the cars don't start. The collection of gasoline and oil in these pans and the occasional backfire can be a disaster. Some early cars have the flywheel cut with fan blades and had no fan. In those cases the pans were necessary to get the air flow through the radiator. Johnny
  7. WTB excellent hubcap center for 38 90 series. 39 probably also fits. Repro is fine. Thanks for lead Johnny
  8. Anyone willing to share some help? New 53 Fiesta owner (second time). I need some direction. Among other things. Excellent Speedo cluster gauges. Padding for inside hood. Service to redo steering wheel Thanks Johnny 925-963-5835
  9. I, for one, am happy to open my mind to what others have to say, especially when they are thinking about ways to save or improve our hobby. I might not always agree with them and I suppose they might sometimes offer their thoughts in the "wrong" forum, but I appreciate the efforts. Johnny
  10. Careful when you put the transmission cover back on. Mine messed up my shifting until a made some clearance at top...... Johnny
  11. I have searched the Mecum website without luck. Could you ask the owner to contact me if the car is not going to auction. I am interested. Or maybe he will post what sale it will appear at if it is going to auction. jcrow22006@aol.com I did email Mecum and they were very little help. That would irritate me were I the seller. Johnny
  12. Well, I am no expert, but I have a lot of era photos from the twenties. Most seem to show new cars photographed in the Oakland area. A surprising number not only have white walls, but have double whitewalls, that being white on the chassis side. I suppose that the cars photographed tended to be the flashier ones..... but they often have whitewalls.
  13. I would wait to see how the bidding goes. Long time left. Just brought home the smaller version today.
  14. Might mean that I have to sell the one off Fisher
  15. Engine 700809. 1930. Originally built as a roadster. Wrong trunk, so I need lo-boy. Coming from Academy of Arts San Francisco. Sold about 11/12 years ago through RM at Arizona.
  16. Chris, I assume that the one that hangs at bottom of dash is not correct like my 32 has ? I do have one almost new that is a duplicate of that one. By the way I did buy a 30 roadster. Johnny
  17. Here are two 31's that I own, one early, one late.
  18. I do not. I have about a thousand early photos from glass negatives. Many were taken in the San Francisco/Oakland area. I just posted a few in the American Underslung site. Johnny
  19. Probably off topic..... just another photo that I found
  20. Here a couple more. A 13 Tourist and a 11 Traveler (I believe). Johnny
  21. PS. Cunningham made every piece of their cars, from body to engine to the bolts that held them together.
