Do you still have the '28 fenders, etc. for sale? I have a ;28 DB Model 128 coupe. If so, what are you asking for them, and where are you located? Thank you! Dan

I now own this car. The red-painted head was an "oopsie"; a mechanic friend of the previous owner pulled the head to replace the head gasket, and before reinstalling the head he did the owner a "favor" and painted the head red.

Do you still have these '28 parts? Thanks, Dan

FOR SALE 1928-29 Chrysler Rear Leaf Springs with Differential Complete rear springs and differential removed from 1928-29 Chrysler (?) frame that I purchased. Condition unknown. Must pick up in west-central WI (zip 54724) - will not ship. $40 OBO

Hi, Bob Thanks for getting back to me so promptly. Would you be able to e-mail me some pictures, please? My e-mail address is danritz@pair.com. 1. Is there any damage to the frame? 2. Is there any serious rust (deep pitting, etc.)? I have no idea what the bare frame is worth. Again, I have use only for the bare frame, but have no problem taking the complete unit. Can you give me a ballpark idea of how much you'd want for it, please? Thank you! Dan

Thanks for responding. A few questions... 1. Where are you located? 2. Is the frame from a sedan or coupe/roadster? 3. What is the wheelbase (center of front axle to center of rear axle)? 4. Would you be willing to sell just the bare frame and, if so, how much would you ask for it? Thank you! Dan

Thanks, Rob, I'll check into that. Much appreciated!

I'm in Wisconsin, but my reach is obviously worldwide via the net. Maybe there are bound to be 128/129 frames out there, but so far any owners have remained underground. And I've run a comprehensive online & local search for the last several months (AACA, Dodge Brother Clubs, a gazillion assorted Facebook groups, Facebook Marketplace, eBay, local clubs, etc., etc); there are no 128/129 frames to be had. Also, I checked in detail the measurements of earlier frames; not even close, off considerably in all three dimensions. The search continues...

Yep, I've been looking for quite some time - 128/129's seem to be scarce indeed. Thanks!

Model 129 Fast-Four 3-window coupe I was thinking front rail sections from other models might work as well? Thanks!

I have a 1942 Ford 6-cylinder flathead engine that my brother would like to sell. But we have no idea of its value. (Admin – please delete if not allowed). In the mid 80's (yep, 35 years go) my brother owned a '47 Ford pickup that he planned on restoring. He removed this engine from the truck, and had it rebuilt. I have receipts dated 1985. He ended up selling the truck itself, without ever having installed or ran the engine, but held onto the engine all these years. He will soon be moving into a different house, and decided that the time has come to let go of the engine. He worked with the experienced Ford engine builder who assembled the engine, and told me that the engine was liberally lubricated when it was put back together. I stopped by my brother's place this week, and we were able to turn it over with a socket and straight arm; it was not "stuck" whatsoever. Info from the block: Ferro 2GA6015 From the web: "The G casting: This is the original inline six cylinder and was used before WW2. It is cast by Ferro foundry and will have a stylized raised Ferro mark located on the oil pan rail next to the oil breather pipe. The casting mark will have a G as part of its code, for instance, 2GA 6015." "That is a 1942 engine...90 hp, 226 cubic inch, bore 3.3", stroke 4.4". The 2GA engine was produced and used in 1942 models only." Located in Bloomer, WI (54724) My brother wants it gone; $500 OBO - Will consider all offers. Thanks!
