I have 6 new 35 x 5 tires, still wrapped, that need a ride to north of Seattle or anywhere on the west coast. I'll be attending the Bakersfield swap meet in 2 weeks if anyone from that area is going to be there. Will help pay expenses. Ken

That's a beauty!!

This accident took place in Vancouver, BC. At the time there was nothing but empty fields around it. Today it's right in the heart of town. No empty land anywhere. You have to wonder how this accident could have happened. Ken

You are missing the starter push switch which bolts to the starter housing. The battery cable attaches to the switch. When you push the starter pedal in the car it will close the switch and connect with the pad you see on top of your starter. Here's a picture of my 34 Dodge. Chrysler used this system for a number of years. The switch is still available as it was used on commercial vehicles . I'll try and find the pt# for you Ken

Kaiser is probably right for 478 but can you tell us what it measures on the backside that goes into the wheel? Ken

What is the diameter of the lens and the body? Thanks Ken

Hi Joe I've got a 3 blade cast aluminum fan with a built in hub. It's about 18 inch dia. The blades could easily be cut back if they're too long. I bought it years ago thinking it would work on my 12 Oakland but, you know...that wasn't the case. Here's some pictures. Maybe it will work for you Ken

I discovered that the tie rod end on my 31 CM6 is the same as on my 34 Dodge. I've been collecting 34 Dodge parts for the last 40 years and I had some nos on the shelf! Thanks for asking . Ken

Does anybody know of a source or a the part#? Thanks Ken

The 14 Lewis lived in the Vancouver BC area about 30 years ago. One of our club members brought it in from the USA. He tried to tour it but it wouldn't stay cool. The rad was too small. I believe he eventually put an additional rad under the car. Shortly after he sold it back into the states. Seems like a long time ago now! Ken

I have to agree with Marty on this. I also have a 1912 Oakland only mine is the model 40 touring. I've always (33years now!) run the model L carb as that is what it came with from the factory. It runs great! Idles beautifully, lots of power pulling and it goes as fast as I'm comfortable with. In addition my Oakland is the easiest hand cranked car to start I've seen. I've got over 20000 miles touring this car over the years and the last thing I'd ever change is my Schebler carb!! Ken

My original 34 Dodge generator works fine. I've had the car since 2000 and never had an issue with charging. Have you had your generator rebuilt? My car has 89000 miles on it. Made it that far with original equipment. Ken

I'm needing the left inside door handle. I expect it's the same as used on other Chrysler products of the era. The picture is of the right side one that I have. Thanks Ken

Good going Nelson. It will be a wonderful car when done. I have a CM6 roadster that I bought this summer. Don't have any extra of the parts you need but I'll watch out for them. Ken

The overdrive part is what makes this question a bit different. I run a 38 Chrysler o/d trans in my car. I too wonder what oil to use. I've been using standard gear oil. I think it is 75-140. The o/d works fine in the summer but doesn't always want to release in the winter when it's colder out. I expect this oil is too heavy. Otherwise it shifts great and sounds great. Ken

The speedo isn't an issue. You can switch from KM to miles through the magic of the truck computer. there's a button on my GMC steering wheel for that. Ken

We're waiting for the pictures!! Sounds like a wonderful tour. Ken

Thanks guys for the suggestions. Ken

Thanks Keiser. I forgot to say they are 5 stud wire wheels. I'll give Bob a call.

I'm doing the brakes on my 31 Chrysler CM6 right now and would like to find better drums. Mine have been turned quite a bit and some have heavy pitting that's too deep to get out. If I can't find better drums what are my options? Can the drums be built up and machined to size? Is anyone making repro drums?? Ken

I'm going thru the brakes on my car right now and discovered I could really do with better drums. Maybe the same as other models. Pt# 320523. thanks Ken

That sounds like my kind of tour tour. I don't do car shows. Last May on the Nickel Tour we climbed Hurricane Ridge. 5200 ft elevation from our sea level start. My 11 T loved it. So did I! Best part of the tour. Ken

If you want to come out west we're putting on the Pathfinders Reliability Run June 8th to 16th 2019. This is for cars pre 1920. This is a progressive tour covering over 800 miles. Starting in Rossland British Columbia the tour will visit Washington, Idaho and Montana before returning to Rossland. I'll be taking my 14 Premier. For more information on this, email me through the forum and I'll send you the info. Ken

I have a number of sets of the hinged clamp style brackets however I don't know if that is what your car used. The picture is for a touring car but I believe I have some for a roadster Ken

Phil Foster was definitely a legend in our area and so was Vern Wellburn. When Vern passed away about 6 years ago we were able to buy the very original 1911 Model 62 Stanley from the estate. We are the 8th owners of this car and it now lives here Surrey BC. We've toured over 2000 miles in it. One correction though, the Stanley was never owned by the Butchart family. The Butchart connection is that one of their employees owned the Stanley and often drove it to work. It was often seen parked at the gardens. Ken
