    1937 Cadillac Sedan

    in Automobiles and Parts - Buy/Sell

    Posted

    I am looking to sell my 1937 Cadillac sedan. The reason for selling is that it doesn't get much road time. The color is dark maroon with grey interior. This car has completed many tours and is quite roadworthy. It has an about a 10 year old full restoration.  There is a much more information available. The car was appraised for $30. 000 last year and I would like to get around $25. Contact me if interested. Steve Rinaldo

    Steve Rinaldo here. The show that I host is the Classic Car Show. It is usually live at 8 am on  Saturday. We generally try to have guests on that are a part of the old car hobby. Some of the guests we have had are Steve Moskowitz the CEO of AACA, Chris Ritter AACA Librarian. Bob Wallace of J.C. Taylor, and Fred Simione form his Museum in Pa. You can find the show at Americas Web Radio on the internet. Jim weber and myself have been doing this for over 15 years. and there are a lot of archived old shows that you can listen at the site as well. We are always looking for new guests, so if you have any ideas let me know.

    See you on the road. Steve

    To Petr O, Thanks for the reply the picture you sent shows a cone shaped valve on the rod in the bottom float chamber. I don't have this part,so I see why it floods. I'll try to come up with a substitute. McMaster Carr has some Viton balls that may work.

    To DavidMc, I would greatly appreciate it if you could send me a copy of that. I met Vern once and he was very knowledgeable on Maxwell Carburetors. I didn't know anything like this existed. I have also been corresponding with Frank Ceruti in Australia, he also is very knowledgeable about Maxwells.

    That is one of the problems I don't know what carb this car has. It has no markings on it , assume that it is a Maxwell made carb. The float is attached to nothing it just floats. No shutoff valve, levers. and no information available.

    HELP I am getting close to running my 1909 Model A Maxwell and am trying to sort out some Carb issues. The main problem is that it seems to flood. The float works OK.

    1. I have never dealt with anything this old so I'm not even sure how it works. 

    2.The position of the float makes no difference as looks like it isn't attached to anything. So don't even see the need for a float.

    3. I can't find any information on this carb , HELP

    Thanks, Steve

    1909 Maxwell Oiler threads

    I am trying to get the oiling system in my 1909 Maxwell to work correctly. The oil reservoir tank on the firewall uses two different sizes of a tapered flared fittings and I can't seem to find anything like this. All of the fittings I can find have straight threads no taper. Does anyone have an idea what these might be. I was  thinking possibly British BPST. Any thoughts or  suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Steve

    I am about to start to use this car after a a hull powertrain rebuild by early car expert. I have a lot of questions and have little information.  I tried to ask on the Maxwell forum and got very little in the way of help. What I need is someone to call when I have a question. I know  that everyone is wary of scammers. If you leave me your name I'll get a way to call. 

    Thanks, Steve Rinaldo
