Driveway/parkway ,that's Pittsburgh . Perhaps the system works fine . OP is the thief . Just wants to shut it off.

Beautiful ! Thank you for the tour .

Wait..........What ! The distributor cap is gone . Same with the carburetor..........top is gone !

IHLE SCHOTTENRING

The author of the Hemmings article has never seen a pre war car before viewing this Pierce .

NEVER use WD-40 on any clock movement ! That product dries to a gum . It can only be removed with more WD-40 . Pay to have it overhauled by someone knowledgeable . Disassemble to clean properly . Polish the pivots and use good clock oil . Not 3 in one oil .

I love a mystery ! Remove the two coil springs and determine what is in the cylinder . Another coil spring or an air damper with a leather cup . It looks like a round head screw going into the end of the cylinder . Hoping to learn what you find .

I would want to upholster it with extra wide wale corduroy .

Image found online, not my puller .

I hope the seller is clued to this discussion and is benefitting from the great knowledge offered here . He and the car would both be better for it .

I do like the shop rag air filter the best ! Cheaper than a K & N .

The auto parts store will sell you one . Just know the size or have the old one with you that day .

A nice car to drive after a war .

This car just needs to be painted Cherokee Red to finish the project .

Oh yes........that color MUST be right .

Nice car . Something happened to the spark and throttle levers on the steering wheel . Replaced with a white porcelain door knob . Still it's nice .

Use a rivet gun and not an air hammer . There is a BIG difference in how they perform . I would recommend a 7X rivet gun . Lots of power to shoot the rivet quick . An undersize gun will not upset the rivet , just worry it to death .

Thank you for the update .

Alsfarms , I am sorry to say I do not remember . It was more than a FEW years ago . But not crazy money as I was very close to pulling the trigger . I wonder if the Santa Barbra location would help give it a high price . Nice car , it still tempts me .

I could have bought this years ago out of Phoenix. It's on the market now in Santa Barbra . https://www.charlescrail.com/vehicles/122/1947-alvis-ta14-aeroback-woody-wagon Rewooded in African Mahogany .

His neighbors don't complain about that ? Parade permit required ?

I have turned sockets down for clearance in the lathe . Grinding seems slow irregular effort . Best Wishes :)

I have two neighbors that hand prop their airplanes , with no one in the cockpit on the brakes .
