  1. Somebody should go get them. Someone close of course.
  2. There is a big difference between the transmission being locked up, and the shifter mechanism being jammed. It's easy for the shifter to get jammed, especially if out of adjustment.
  3. There were few mechanical changes for 1938. The most notable was the Safety Shift Gear Control, a $10 option on any ’38 model. It was advertised as the first column-mounted gearshift for the low-priced field; a necessary distinction since Cadillac also offered a column-mounted gearshift this year. It should also be noted that all 1938 Oldsmobiles, plus the Buick Special, could be ordered with the Automatic Safety Transmission; this semi-automatic unit also had the selector lever mounted on the steering column. Buicks and Oldsmobiles fitted with the conventional standard transmission retained the floor mounted shift lever.
  4. Looks like '38 column shift are common among Pontiacs.

  5. I suppose Bob was buzzed by a speeding, silent EV. Too fast and too close. Go slow and give space when passing pedestrians on residential streets. I live on what is supposed to be a quiet, 25 mph residential street, without sidewalks, so if you go for a walk you are sharing the road with vehicles, even if you try to stay over to the shoulder. Some people drive responsibly but most speed and it can be 35 mph, or 45, or sometimes even 50+

  7. OReilly has several that comes up and the dimensions listed seem confused. Dimensions are not even consistent, so can't be trusted.
  8. Send him back an email telling him he is being ridiculed.

  11. Fresno is a relatively hot dry climate. And it does look like it's been kept indoors. I'm sure they could be if east coast and driven in winter on snow and salted roads, or if in California and left out in the rain. But this one is apparently from Texas and has been in Fresno so it might not be bad.
  12. It looked like it needed to be painted to me. And interior to be re-done. And who knows mechanical work, but at least it runs. Maybe the buyer will stash it in a corner of a garage or barn and just leave it. It would have been a great project for someone with time, energy and skills.
  13. that seat doesn't look right. thing needs a lot of work to be presentable.
  14. I was going to say you're smart to have passed. Looks like someone else may have paid the full $12k though, or close to it.
  15. I don't know. Just looked up the trailer you mentioned.
  16. If you wanted a shinier bumper you could get some large diameter thin wall electrical conduit and a tubing bender and make new ones.
  17. He has no interest in commenting here anymore. He might pop in from time to time, but has said he lost interest in this site.
  18. It's a good looking sedan in the direct side view.
  19. Nice car. i don't know about that price though considering the condition. it has a piece of pipe for a front bumper.
