  1. https://auto.howstuffworks.com/1951-1953-kaiser-traveler.htm The interesting history lesson of the Traveler . Great car .
  2. Wikipedia has a good article on the history of Matford . Just GOOGLE it .
  3. But where can you drive this car when everyone is on the phone .
  4. Shop fall Hershey for your appliances. I wonder if AACA will allow that . Then you get into judging standards .
  5. Some years ago I did some work for an acquaintance on his Italian Stanguellini race car. Supposedly restored in Denver. I found the front control arm bushings missing and replaced with pieces of electrical conduit, no rubber. I found a set of Fiat 1100 bushings for it. Also the pinion gear was missing a tooth. It is still missing as a search across Italy didn't find one . He would not pay to have a gearset made. I see it for sale in northeast Ohio .
  6. Thank you for the added informations.
  7. What website? Can you post a link to the site?
  8. Yes, need more data for an effective posting .
  9. Members 1 Posted 32 minutes ago hello to all, I am mac cormick from FRANCE I have a Pontiac 603 from 1934, convertible but I am looking for the bumper luggage rack do you know if this part is still available? Thank you for your help
  10. I predict this will be a long thread . Matt, find that dead mechanics grave and like Oliver Cromwell , we'll dig him up and behead him . Then have him quartered.
  11. The screw in the original question is to retain the rod end on the bearing pin. This is a Cretors popcorn sized steam engine . The valve rod is on the far side for a D type valve. It is only driving the corn stirrer and the 6" clown that looks like he is running the show . Full length is 18 to 22 inches. No need to invoke a mis spent youth of early school days or "Life On The Mississippi".
  12. These floor mounted units are not heaters as we know them . There is no fan to circulate air . They were known then as "foot warmers". They used exhaust air from a cutout. I had one in the rear floor of a 1926 Paige sedan .
  13. Waiting so long for something that waiting became the something .
  14. I did a 20s sedan in long cobra grain from LeBarron Bonney in 2015. It looked so right . Someone today must be selling the long cobra grain . Perhaps Haartz. I just looked , Haartz lists it . Happy tacking !
  15. Crossing the border into Germany, the trafficator/ semaphore is known as a winker .
  16. It looks like a lock ring not a split rim . First .........DEFLATE TIRE !
  17. The sagging door handles is more annoying than the color . At least it isn't black !
  18. A great sign with an even better story . What a find . My brother found a "Rickenbacker Sales and Service" sign that had been turned into a snow shovel . He kept it just like that . He uses his snow blower mostly .
  19. Has anyone here seen a Vega at a car show ?
