Just found this photo of a 1928 Senior Six. I blew it up and you can see the conduit for the headlight wires going to the center of the radiator shroud. Frank

Looks like the hood from a 1927 Dodge Senior 6. I'll keep checking on the purpose of the holes. Maybe the wires to the headlights went through some conduit fro those holes. Frank

If the nickel is not chromed, Sulfuric will remove it. Hydrocloric will remove the chrome from the nickel, but not the nickel. Frank

Essex used the horizontal louvers from 1919-1926. I think the radiator was made larger in 1924 to better cool the six cylinder, but not sure. Frank

In NY you have to show the DMV a photo or the actual plates to have the plates OK'd. Then the check to see if the number is in use or not. Pretty simple. I think the law also states that they cannot be home made or even restored or repainted. Frank

That's a 1928 Pierce, not 1912 Frank

1912 Pierce with optional headlights. Some states outlawed the headlights in the fenders. Go figure.... Frank

Dodge Bros. 1915-1916 Frank

I have used American Collectors in New Jersey for almost 40 years. Great company, great service. Now they have a feature similar to AAA for roadside service for your antique car, should it break down on the road. Couldn't have asked for better service, ever! Frank

Lang's Model T parts has them. They call them 'roll up curtain knobs' and sell them for $1.65 per pair. Their part number is RW-SK Frank

1927-1928 Frank

I think it's a 10 mm plug used in many cars of the late 30's and early 40's. I know Packard used them and I think GM. Still available.... Frank

Well, here goes. 1. early 20's Overland 4. Early 20's Dodge Bros. 6. 23-24 Ford Model T (still has clinchers) still working on the others... Frank

The REO would have had a soft top insert, since full metal roofs were not found until 10 years or so later. The top most likely would have come within 8 to 10 inches of the four sides of the roof. Hope this helps. Frank

Mark, I have a National Service Data with a 1956 wiring diagram that I can copy and send you email. Do you still need it? Frank

Curious... They spelled Dreadnaught wrong in the above add.... Frank

The car to the rear of the Peerless is a Model T Ford. If my eyes aren't playing tricks on me, there appears to be a filler board under the windshield. Could be 1911, no later. Frank

keiser31, can you read the chimneys on the lamps to see if they say Rushmore or E&J? Frank

I've compared much of the features of this car to my 1910 EMF and I think it is the same... the only thing I can't justify are the louvers in the hood sides. Bail handle rear door, step in the armrest area of the rear seat, rear fenders, non-demountable wheels with snap rings, E&J head lamps. I'd bet on a 1910 EMF! Frank

Most 3 brush generators (dynamos) are adjusted by sliding the third brush (the one that is adjustable). Looking from the brushplate side, slide the third brush in the direction of rotation to increase, opposite to decrease. According to my copy of the National Service Data, the 1917 Stutz charging rate can also be adjusted by filing the surface of the third brush. "The charging rate may be slightly decreased by filing away the edge of the third brush nearest the nearest main brush. Filing the opposite edge will increase the charging rate. Only a small portion of the third brush may be so removed, or serious sparking will result." Good luck. Frank

I think you meant the rusty one in the photo on the right. Didn't even take notice.... Frank

If you mean to the far left, the black sedan, I think it was an early 50's Dodge, maybe very late 40's. I did not take a photo. To be truthful, this period is of little interest to me, I just did not recognize the English.... Yes, it said Austin on the badge. Frank

I drove past this today and shot some photos. After getting home, I found it, but at the time, didn't know what it was. Don't think this can be bought, since it's been sitting here for some time. I would guess that's the case with most of this guy's stuff. Shame. Frank

Could the large touring car 5 cars from the left be a late teens Marmon? Frank
