I drive my 1927 Chrysler '50' at between 30-35 miles per hour, she gets pretty busy faster than that and several senses preclude the need for a tachometer in my experience. Enjoy.

Both really cool cars but that 1911 is amazing, can't wait to see it all cleaned up.

Back to Franklin automobiles... Thanks for reporting on the meet and the photos, it looks like a great event. Franklin is one of several cars I would someday like to own and drive.

The model 50 is an All Steel body built by Budd.

Installing new kingpins and bushings in our 1929 Chrysler model 75. First side went very smooth but the other side when looking at it from the end view has the top bore out of alignment. Not ideal, but is it a bad idea to heat up the yoke and apply pressure to straighten it out so that the pin goes straight through. The old kingpin was slightly bent. The yoke is chrome-nickel construction. Thanks. Bob

Thanks guys. The manual states; " fill reservoir with glycerine-alcohol mixture, 10% alcohol. Do not use oil of any kind." There is a lot of interesting/unusual stuff on the '29 Chrysler, we are having fun assembling this puzzle that was dis-assembled by others around 1980. Bob

We have Hudsons and Kaiser-Frazer automobiles that we operate often during the summer, they are both well built cars but I would have to say the Hudson is all around slightly better. That is a nice Hudson you have there.

We are working on our 1929 Chrysler model 75 and the manual says 90% Glycerine which I think is available at drug stores, it is a hand sanitizer ingredient, and 10% alcohol (isopropyl alcohol ?). Is this the formula we are still using ? Thanks

I'll second the point that good examples of these are great driving cars, we have had our '61 convertible since the mid 1980's and have driven it plenty. A lot of quality was built into these cars.

Near as I can tell, he is asking $25,000 cad for the car, which is about $19,500 usd. It's only minutes away from where my sister lives and I was thinking about going to see the car when were to fly out to visit this week but we decided to postpone our travel plans.

We are assembling the engine for a 1929 Chrysler model 75 that I purchased in disassembled condition and we are missing the flywheel and also the (cast ?) piece that fits between the front oil pan seal and the block. Thanks. Bob.

My father has been on a nostalgic mission to re-acquire items from his past, he now has his sights set on finding an example of the first car he ever owned to add to the collection. If anyone knows of a decent, ready to drive 1929 Chrysler sedan, model 75 please let me know. (Have references that we will be good caretakers of your car). Thanks. Bob C.

That is a really attractive car. Hope it is being recommissioned for the road.

One of my buddies referred to the cars in our collection as "junkers" ,I promptly corrected him. We still laugh about that exchange.

Stopped in after work today and had a look around, certainly some interesting cars for sale here, the 1936 Auburn looks alright, the 1939 Packard conv. looks to be alright, the 1927 LaSalle looks not too bad except for the loud colours, I did like the 1925 Packard but currently at $10,000 appears to be max. dollars in my opinion.
