1931 McLaughlin 90-have to make a realistic choice ?
Kingdomtraveler replied to arcticbuicks's topic in General Discussion
Any project or job tends to become a curse if your heart is not in it. -
Old Snow Vehicle adaptions & otherwise
Kingdomtraveler replied to Larry Schramm's topic in General Discussion
The soviets used something similar (to the red and white one) during the winter war in Finland and also against the Germans once they arrived on scene. The Germans built several versions as well. Several models even mounted machine guns for defense. Only makes sense that there was a civilian version. -

That is a tough spot to be in. Original is always best but what to do in your situation? Not sure what to say. At least as a hot rod it would have a second life. Love the looks of that machine tho! -

What are my options for lights? The headlights are rather dim as are the dash lights. Is this just the way it is or could I somehow get better results? -

The seller put a tarp on it and let it sit in his driveway for 2 years. That said, It looks like I could touch it up and be ok although there are large patches on the roof that are done to bare metal. I will shop around for a touch up spray gun and see where tis leads me. Sounds much more affordable than the shop... You folks are a God send, Thank you! -

So do I use just that paint? I have been told primer reacts with lacquer paint. That BS too? I will take all the advice I can get. Thank you everybody who spoke up. -

Apparently I can't just take his word for it. I just trusted him... thank you for sharing that! -

well it looks like I have to strip the lacquer paint and put modern paint on. Was hoping to keep her close to original but you cant get that paint and I am told it may cause illnesses including cancer. I don't know but I am talking with a shop in Manheim, Pa that specializes in painting antiques. Any suggestions? -

It runs on full throttle... revs high so I do not let it run for long. Roars to life quite easily. Exhuast stinks pretty bad. I am guessing it's old gas. -

If you ever get to the area again I would be happy to show you around! There is a lot of history that most people are unaware of. The Hampton Inn sits on the ground the old Ephrata Hotel once sat on. Many years ago there used to be a world class horse racing tack where the catholic church apartments now stand. -

You have some beautiful old tired iron! Such beauty and elegance in those machines. Sad to see them rust away. Thank you for sharing these pics. I am almost certain i will need a window regulator for the driver side rear door. I turned the crank and it turned freely while the window remained closed. I will get to it sometime soon. -

That would be a bit of a trek. I am in south central Pennsylvania, roughly 2 hours west of Philly. -
