That is spectacular! So much work to design and implement successfully. Fantastic

Wow, tell me about that intake manifold! Did you pattern and cast that to accommodate what appears to be a Rayfield carbie? Impressive thing indeed. If so can I borrow the pattern?

100 MM Rudge

A 425 CID brass car with 62 hp a "small" Locomobile, c'mon man!

Just for reference. The 1912 six or model "M" (48) was 4.5 X 4.5 X 6. 429 CID (advertised 70 actual HP) The 1913 little six or model "R" 38 was 4.25 X 5 X 6. 425 CID (advertised 63 actual HP) I have heard tell that some consider the 38 a red headed stepchild, what is the reasoning? Ignorance, that is all.

Tell me that makes sense! Can't make it up. Seeing is believing.

From the same catalog

The Locomobile Company published that illustration and their designation of the model being a four passenger rounded back end as a gunboat roadster in their custom body department catalog for 1917. The photographs of the boat tailed Locomobile depicted in this forum does not appear to be a "gunboat" by Locomobile published illustration.

I would invite her (the machine) to stay as long as she'd like!

George, do you have access to a copy of number 1 "Invoice for Locomobile converter for A.L. Riker, 1920"? If so, would you kindly share a copy? Thanks in advance.

Saw in in the forums and reposted here since our friend was looking at speedster bodies. The one pictured is a Studebaker.

Right back at 'ya my friend!

Hi Ed in Mass, Any chance you would know the GVW of a model C travelodge? I am trying to title one, and the dmv wants to know the GVW. Thanks a lot. John
