Crank hole cover I think from the 1930s? ID needed. Thanks, Ric

The more that things change, the more they stay the same. 🙂

Instrument cluster 1930s? Truck? ID anyone? This Cluster takes Back-Fit Gauges, I have had this for at least 50 years, now with this wonderful AACA Forum maybe just maybe!

Thank you, Professor, you have done it again! Ric PS: Are you aware of any online Chrysler Parts Book numbers ID system? Thanks again, Ric

… Identification needed on the year and model of this Chrysler Products new headlight bezel I think from 1960s? The part numbers on the original Bag are 2898154 _ 63428, the first group of numerals are above the second group. I appreciate any help you can put into identifying this part. Thanks, Ric

Refresh, thank you.

Hi Frank, ... On this derusting tank setup is the process covered elsewhere? Thanks, Ric

auburnseeker, Sadly no Rumble Lid nor Windshield Frame. Remember this Body came out of an old Logging Camp they could have used Windshield in the Cabin. If they were after hard to find parts why would they leave behind The Door and W/S Garnish Moldings, The Cabrio Stainless Framed Door Glass the 2 Rumble Step Plates and Brackets, Cabriolet Dash, Rear Fenders, and Taillight Body’s, Dual Side Mount Hardware? “very interesting”Ric

‘keiser31’ “I would drag it home” (Done). I am sure the Doors would be gone If they could have unbolted them. The Door Garnish Moldings were still on it! It has Dual Side Mounts. No Rumble Lid. Ric

Hi professor, ... Yes that is the case with this Cabrio Body it has a unitized Sub Frame and you could be correct and the Cabrio’s have purpose built Frame. If that is the case I will have to modify any 35-36 Frame. The Body had a large tree growing up in the middle of it and we had to cut the Body in half to get it out of there. I’m divulging more than originally intended. Thanks, Ric

auburnseeker, ... Yes I saw that, I wish I could avail myself to that opportunity, but sadly not able. The 1935 Plymouth Rolling Chassis is only $200 if it will work? and is only 10 miles away. Thanks, Ric

… Thank you for your helpful reply, regarding the top parts the Center Folding Bow that hinges inside the body is there and the Door Window Frames are also there. My aim is to have a fun driver not a show car. If original likeness top assembly is not available for fabrication help. I have 1935-6 Ford Cabrio and 36 Packard Cabriolet Folding Top assembly’s that still have some of their original Fabric and Webbing for reference, they also include the original small Back Glass Window. I figured this challenge would not be for the faint of heart. … I will get back to you on the Clamp Assemblies Thanks again, Ric

1936 Plymouth Cabriolet. help needed … I found this 1936 Plymouth Cabriolet Body in an old Logging Camp. I was able to Identify the year and Make by the Serial no. Plate and Body Buck Tag. I have a chance to buy a 1935 Ply Frame, is that a direct mount for the 36 Ply Cabriolet? An understatement for sure, In time other parts will be needed. Thank you, Ric

1937 DeSoto Tail lights … I have a miss mash of late 1930s MoPar Tail lights. I was looking for photos of them yesterday to send you to see if I could match something. I see you have deleted the post but wondering if you still have anything available? Thanks Ric

Don't get me going on FoMoCo of the 80's but it’s my fault for buying 4 new ones during that period, and bigger fault for not selling all Ford Stock then.

You better jump on that!

For a well-informed education on ebay just do a 'ebay sucks' on your internet search engine.

...Car was hit hard by another vehicle on the lower LH side at an angle in which it was forced up over the Street Curbing ripping the RH rear wheel off and the Car came to rest on it. Notice that there was no damage to the Iron fence but RH front fender had made contact causing slight damage to it. ...The snow on the other car could have come from that car just being in another location minutes before i.e. Mountains in California to the North East Great Lakes- ‘Lake effect Snow’ narrow bands (I see it happen all the time).

Great find , I need a 1932 Studebaker Dictator & Commander Inst Cluster outer Bezel.
