Looking where the horn is mounted isn't this a 31? 32's were on the outside? I have a 31 PA that was advertised as a 32 because that was the year it was registered. This had the one year carb DRT-08 for the vac on the distributor and many were tossed in favor for the better carbs in 32. The air cleaner has been modified with a "weedeater" air filter attached which is a shame as these original's were tossed when the newer 32 carbs were swapped. Quite hard to find air filter. You always find these running either the newer carb or like when I got mine, something more common for other makes. Mine had this one for a larger displacement chevy. That is the DRT-08 replacement on the right. The newer carbs that replaced these were far superior hence only 1 year and forget about finding the correct rebuild kits.

color seems popular for that time. I have a 31 Franklin and 31 Plymouth about matching paint schemes -
We are finally get perfect driving weather here in North Texas after a pretty hot summer. But I sure miss the leaves falling and the brisk mornings of the northern states. Doubt we get much color this year with the drought. Had a great mid afternoon drive today with it right around 80 stopping for lunch at my buddys place.

All the vacuum lines and actuators for the heat/AC control and the plastic connection block that is always brittle the nipple connections just snap off sucks beyond belief. I gave up on fixing mine in a 63 dodge as that connection block is impossible to find or repair. Mine turned to dust on removal. I just mounted a seperate switch for the heater blower motor and manually open the damper for winter driving. Unless he has a NOS one here I doubt those controls are working. Everything is just vacuum control. The nipples on these controls just snap off.
