  1. Got mine today in Canandaigua, NY
  2. I loose. Only two engines and two transmissions: 1920 Packard Twin Six engine and transmission and 1926 Chrysler engine and transmission. Does a rear axle count?
  3. Hi, Always call to be sure they are open and when they close. Many moons ago, we set out to go to Miller's buffet, east of Lancaster on RT30. Got there at 7:45 PM to find out that they closed at 8:00PM
  4. I just received an e-mail with an offer to sign up and get a $50.00 gift card. Is this from National headquarters? Bill B.
  5. It's interesting to see the three judging incentves at Hershey 2024. I'll guess that they represent Ford Model As. Has anyone looked closely at the wheels? Don't look Model A to me! But, I'm a Model G guy, so not qualified to judge Model As. A second look at the photo: With the doors opening to the front,now look like a Model B three window. The grill looks like 1932.
  6. Propane torch. Also good for finding any leaks in the fuel system. Reminds me of when we had our '19 Packard moved here from Texas. When I started to clean it up, I discovered a black spider under the chassis. About the size of a quarter. I flipped it over and discovered a red hourglass on the belly. Black Widow? Bill B 65 days until Hershey 2024 with MOXIE tasting
  7. Thanks for posting these photos. No Chryslers from way back?
  8. Looks like the one that I found upside down North of Rome NY in the late 1970s' Hood and gas tank look like 3rd Series Twin Six. Windshield support looks like 2nd Series. Did you find the serial #? It's on the engine base on the LH side near where it mounts to the frame.
  9. Hi, You asked for it. Here it is: Folks have ID it as a '31 Model A. Most likely the photo taken in 1953 or '54. In our side yard under the apple tree. $15.00 and, if I remember, free delivery. Frame included. The body followed me to school where I put it together with a '32 Ford frame and 6 wheels and sold the package for $50.00
  10. My Chrysler and the wife's Corvair both get shell Rotella Much cheaper than an engine rebuild.
  11. Thanks for the post. A similar model. was recently sent to auction from here. Is it a normal, or "SC" designation? It's the same year as the 356 Speedster that I sold in '64 and wish I had kept.
  12. Time to get the '26 Chrysler out. It started up pronto and we went for a short ride. Then felt lucky and the "curb find" lawnmower started on the third pull, so the grass got the first trim on the year.
  13. I have a confession to make: I removed a sparkplug from a scrapped Moon block: Packard script. Realized it belonged in my connection, not to the Moon collectors.
  14. And... there are the Robertson fasteners, as one who has a Model T Ford made in Canada has discovered. Wickipedia will tell you all that you need to know about them. Driver bits are available at Lowes
  15. Yes, I don't know where my original button that was produced by Dave Devine is now, so I created a replica. Does anyone remember the Friday lunches on the upper floor of the King George pub across the street? Still conniving to make it this year. First year was 1980.
  16. Skinned Knuckles was a better deal. So sad to see him go.
  17. My Dad, Earle Marshall Boudway and Grandfather, Charles Augusus Rich worked at Bath Iron works, Bath Maine. during WWII. There they helped produce and launched a destroyer every 17 days. A total of 83 were built for WWII
  18. Hi Folks, Yes, Walt. It doesn't have the old kick. We experiment from time to time and agree that the ingredient that the Feds made them take out changed the traditional taste. The best that we have done to correct this is to add a shot of Jagermeister to each serving. Please let us know if you agree that with that. Bill B.
  19. Breaking News! Moxie tasting has been rescheduled to Wednesday, October, 4:00PM at space # C2I-44 in the Chocolate Field. Originally held on Thursday.
  20. hi, Try these folks: www.northstarautoelectric.com Located in Macedon, NY Members on the local region have used them with good results. Good luck.
  21. Hi, Thanks for posting this. Quick question: No new flap?
  22. Right on, Dennis. Yes, the rim spreader shown is for a different type of rim. Be sure to wrap the tire and rim with safety straps or chain, as Dennis warned. I have a stupid brother-in-law who changed a truck tire outside of a cage. The lock ring game off when he inflated the tire. Broke both arms, and coller bone. Hard way to learn. Good luck, and please send a photo.
  23. Good Morning Here's a photo of our Model G Hercules . We use it to change tires on our Model G Chrysler, 1926 Phaeton
  24. Contact Rob Burchill to see if he can help. hattiesgarage@comcast.net or prburch@aol.com
