  1. Thanks guys. But they don't have the whitewalls I want. It appears the whitewalls may not be brought in anymore by any of the tire guys. My blackwall tires are good but, you know, I'm a sucker for whitewalls....

  2. I'm looking for 1 to 6 tires    34 X 4 1/2  whitewall tires. These fit 25 inch straight side rims. New or good used. Can arrange for ride here from Hershey if necessary. I'm on the west coast.

    Thanks

    Thanks Howard. I did. That's an excellent post. Lots of good info. Thanks again.

     

    Thanks Keiser31. I've always liked this model of Chrysler. I didn't need another car but how often do you get the chance to get one of these.... Or how about my wife made me buy it?

  4. Thanks for all the info. hddennis's picture is the base that I need.Needs to be the smaller one that measures 2 1/2 od. What I really need to know is if the 31 base is the same as the 32 to 34 caps. The ones American Arrow sells are listed for 32-34 but they don't mention 31. I've emailed them yesterday but so far I haven't got a reply.

    Here's a pic of my car

  5. Does anyone know if this company is still in business? I sent an email months ago from their website and never got a response. When I phone the number listed all I get is Cindy's cell phone??!? I'm needing a rad cap/ornament for my 31 Chrysler CM6 roadster.

    Thanks

  6. I'm not sure Greg. there's not a lot of truly original  early T's around.My 14 Canadian roadster doesn't have the second bead. I don't know the history of the car though. My best guess would be that Ford Canada probably used both. Maybe they came from different suppliers or perhaps production couldn't keep up with the demand and American fenders were brought in to keep the cars going out the door.

  7. Jack. I don't see any sign of the sidemount hardware that goes into the cowl. Not even the holes for it. This car wouldn't have come with sidemounts. I like it a lot with the rear spare. If it were mine that's the way I'd leave it. I have a 34 coupe and a 34 conv. both Canadian model DT. They both have rear spares. I sold off the sidemount fenders I had collected to change them over. Glad I did!

  8. Very nice cars. I believe CarterCar was made by GM back then as was Oakland. The engine looks very similar to the engine in my 12 Oakland 40.  Northway made the engines. Mine runs a schebler model L carb same as this car. I can vouch for the engines being well made. I've put over 25000 miles on mine over the last 40 years without any problems.

  9. Thanks for the info. I've never had the transmission or rear end apart on the Premier so I don't know if there is any yellow metal in it. In my 12 Oakland there are a couple of bronze bushings so that's why I asked the question. However from what I see here I don't think I have any worries on using this product. Thanks for your recommendation Bob. I'll get some on order. The summer touring season will soon be here!
