[Potter Trunk Question]

On 3/18/2024 at 3:05 PM, intimeold said:

We have a Potter trunk that the original owner said it was on his 1937 Chevrolet coupe.  The Green Potter decal is still inside. 38 inches wide, 12 inches deep, sorry I don't have the height here tonight.

 

Question is: What other applications would this trunk be compatible with?  I believe it is too wide for a Model A Ford.

 

Is there a book or listing for these trunks?

Hello Intimeold,

                                  What you have there is a factory accessory trunk for a 1932 Chevrolet. You are missing all the proper hardware for the trunk and the rack assembly. It was used on the four door, the two door and the phaeton body styles only. At one time the latches and the decal was reproduced. I hope this helps.

Hello Mac,

                   What you have there is a 1929 Dodge Brothers 2252 Senior Six sedan. Here are several images of restored cars and parts cars that will show you the details. What part of the world does it reside in?

[RODGER HARTLEY has a new address!]

                        It saddens me to report this, but just this morning I confirmed with the Tacoma, Washington Medical Examiner's Office that on the 10th of this month RODGER HARTLEY did in fact proceed on to the big Dodge Brothers Dealership in the sky. For nearly fifty years RODGER was a good friend and now this earth is not the same, it is going to be a much lonelier place without RODGER. What RODGER knew about four cylinder Dodge Brothers Automobiles would have filed volumes of books! The hobby is now a much emptier place with RODGERS departure.

                                                                       

 

 

Here is link to Rodger's obituary.

[**WANTED**1930-31 Dodge Brothers DC-8, 1929-30 Chrysler Model 66 & 70 Demountable Wood Wheels**WANTED**]

I am attempting to put together a set of these 1930-31 Dodge Brothers DC-8, 1929-30 Chrysler model 66 or model 70 demountable wood wheels. They mate up to a wire wheel brake drum. I would appreciate any help in locating these wheels pictured below. They are 18" with 6 hole on a 6" diameter pattern. They were the first generation demountable wood wheel where the tire was held on with a chrome plate lock ring just like a wire wheel and the lug bolts were exposed. Thank you for looking at this thread and please keep a look out for them!

[**1938 Oldsmobile 2dr Sedan with 71,433 miles**]

This 1938 Oldsmobile two door sedan belongs to one of my good friends, he nor I know what it is worth. To our knowledge there is no rust out, in the trunk there is some surface rust. My friends Grandfather purchased the car in 1940 and it has been in the family since. It has not run in many years. If anyone is interested please private message me thru the AACA mail system and I will send you his telephone number. The car is located in Northern Idaho. If I didn't have 200 years worth of projects I would be tempted myself. If anyone would like more pictures please just ask. There has been several street rodders interested in it from the Spokane area but my friend would like to see it remain stock.
