[1928 Dodge Victory Coupe infos]

Hi, at the suggestion of another member, I am reposting this query to this forum....

I am currently looking at two 1928 Dodge Victory Coupes, and noticing differences between them...

One Coupe has 19 inch wooden wheels, with a recessed, or, tray ceiling headliner.

The other Coupe has 21 inch wooden wheels, smooth headliner, and a slightly larger body overall...yet both appear to be distinctly 1928 models.

What other differences or benefits would someone know off...

Would v. much like to locate a set of wire wheels for either car..

Thanks,

Jay

[1926 Chrysler Series 70 Roadster vs. 1928 Series 72]

Fellas,

I have my heart set on a 1928 Chrysler Series 72 Sport Roadster, but,,,I can't locate one for sale. I have driven a 1927 Roadster, which was fine, but that one got away...

So, I have located a 1926 Series 70 Roadster, but just in the photos, this car seems to have a higher ride height, etc...

Would someone spell out the differences between 1926 and 1928....I realize the engine produced more power, the interior dash bezel was v. art deco, but its the driveline/chassis differences that interest me most.

Thanks,

Jay

[Summer weight oil for 31 PA Plymouth]

Fellas,

I need to change out the engine oil in my 31 Plymouth PA. The previous owner thinks it needs straight 30 w, with a can of STP (?). I would think not.

I am wondering if Shell Rotella 15-40 wt. might be a acceptable choice.

Thanks,

Jay

[older black canvas roadster top]

Hi guys,

Thanks for the two tips, I might try them both on the interior of the top first.

Steve, thanks for the welcome. I haven't always had one, sort of . I am a VCCA member, and once posted a question to that forum, whereas a rather prominent member blasted me and accused me of not being a member....Lord.

Oh, my address is Berkeley County, WV., its the Eastern Panhandle just south of Hagerstown, Maryland.

This is the car : Google Image Result for http://www.oldcarandtruckpictures.com/Chevrolet/1928_Chevrolet_National_Roadster.jpg

Was once owned by Herb Sinnofer, of San Diego, CA, then by Gene Ford, of Frontier Chevy, Fresno, CA, and now its me.

Ciao,

[older black canvas roadster top]

Fellas,

I have just received my 1928 Chevy Roadster from sunny California, and while the black canvas top has some years on it, I was wondering if anyone had any success in freshening up the black color, short of replacing the entire top.

Thanks,

Jay
