  1. Thanks John and dep5. The one's that dep5 made look just like the ones I'm having quoted at the machine shop. I texted the people John mentioned.
  2. Haven't been able to find new outer axle seals for our model 70 coupe, so I'm having some seal housings made at a local machine shop. Mine leaked and ruined the brake linings on the real axle. I had a set of reproduction seals on the car and the mounting holes were out of line with the center of the modern seal and caused them to leak. Chrysler part number for original seals 304009 Victor seal # 26031. Anyone else have the same problem?
  3. Check out Daytona Carburetors, they have a replacement modern one for the 1930 Chryslers that used the DX3.
  4. Check out a material called RAVE, looks and feels like leather. Made by Spradling International.
  5. I had a rattle in my 1930 Chrysler, only at certain speeds. My friend , a retired mechanic, and I couldn't find it. On day I noticed the water pump pulley had a slight wobble . The bore in the pulley was egged out a little. Had it bored and bushed and the noise went away.
  6. My mother was in her 80's with dementia when the local bank gave her a large 30 year loan on her home. She sent the money overseas by Western Union at $9,999.99 checks. Under 10 grand so it wasn't reported. Bank said they knew something was wrong but Heppa rules prevented them from sounding an alarm to us. She lost everything. They were never caught and our government sends millions of dollars in aid to the country they were from. Channel 2 news did a special about her problem ( and she was mad at us & embarrassed ) Keep a close eye on elderly friends and family, scammers are everywhere!
  7. Andy Bernbaum Auto Parts web page said they he having some made. Might want to check with him.
  8. I have a Mileaway horn, they are loud! Louder then mu Klaxon..
  9. A man in the UK wants to use a modern cap , and remove the wing cap, while his car is parked unattended. Can anyone help with a brand & model #?
  10. Has anyone changed over to LED for safety reasons? Need brighter lights when driving home at night. If so, are you happy with them?
  11. Has anyone changed their 6 volt positive ground bulbs to LED? If so, what size bulbs and are you happy with them? Need for safety driving after dark!
  12. Rhode Island wiring did my harness for our 1930 Chrysler, excellent reproduction, large easy to read schematic drawings, all connectors were on the wires. Everything on the car works first time! They will add turning signals and trippe lights if requested. They have cloth covered wire that is fireproof that looks original.
  13. Fireside Resort is right across I-69 from the show. Full hook ups were $34 a night/day. Not a fancy place but I park there every time I go to Auburn. Very handy for the show. Camper parking at the show doesn't offer full hook ups and costs a lot more.
  14. Another 2 door model 70 Brougham showed up, it is in England!
  15. PM me with your questions. We own two 1930 Model 70's. I'd be glad to help of I can. 1930 Royal Coupe with Senior Award 1930 Brougham all original.
  16. Steve, our reservations are made at the Fireside Resort campground right across I-69 from the show site, full hookups, pull thru sites, clean showers. Plenty of places to eat in Auburn, I suggest the Chinese Restaurant right off 69 behind Cracker Barrel. Large place, food and service have always been great and very reasonably priced--all you can eat for one price. There is a Military Museum by the campground and a new Ford Museum plus a nice antique store. Not to mention the ACD museum close by. You can spend days in this area. There is also a old gas station that is restored complete with tools and vehicles outside of Auburn but I can't remember the address--ask a local. Looking forward to a great show.
  17. Thanks Steve, I know how busy you are and thought I would just ask on line. Didn't expect any negative answers since I was sure other may have wondered the same thing. Local group toured Steve Glasiers Restoration shop, man is a true artist.
  18. Thanks, I just sent Rick Gawel a message.
  19. Great show, we had a good time enjoying the show and talking to friends we've met over the years. They can be proud of the people in the chapter that held it. John Kuhn was of great help! But, PA should really repair the pot holes on the roads-some are huge and deep!
  20. AACA show AACA presented the trophys
  21. When we receive a trophy only my name is engraved on it even though when we enter the car as the wife and I are the owners. Why isn't her name included? Wife feels left out..
  22. I cancelled my reservations and will make new ones when date is confirmed. I know things will fill up fast once date is set.
  23. Just heard from the company that makes rubber mats. Estimate was just under a thousand dollars for three floor plates. Floor looks very good now with just the matt !
  24. Made our reservations for Fireside Resort campground today for next years meet! Make your reservations early if you want to stay in Auburn next year. Good job Steve, see you at the Grand National in PA .
