  1. Hi,

    Almost!!

    I went out to start up the Chrysler to take a neighbor to the free Vet's Day lunch at Applebys but the battery wasn't happy enough to turn the starter.

    Perhaps a new battery is due. The date on the one in the car now is August, 2001!

    Nice weather hear today. Saw someone on the way with their Model T.

  2. Hi,

    Sandy has lost nearly all "her" energy here in Western NY. Cloudy day with some drizzles.

    Back to Hershey finds.

    Not a big find, but a rare one; a motor cylinder pet cock, Packard part # 101603. Unique to our 3rd Series Twin Six.

    1/8 pipe thread, with a 30 degree opening on the cup end.

    Probably paid too much for it, but will easily clean up for plating.

  3. Hershey Moxie Tasting Update

    Thursday, October 11th, 4:00PM, Space C2I-44

    From a rough tally, we had over 40 brave souls show up for the 2nd annual Moxie tasting on Thursday afternoon.

    We observed only one lady who declined to finish her sample. At the other extreme, two young folk asked for refills.

    Save the date for the 3rd annual: Thursday, October 10, 2013. Same time and place.

  4. I have seen this thread the last couple of years; and I have heard about Moxie; guess it's a love it or hate it type of thing.

    Don't want to crash any parties, but is this something that is "open to the public", so to speak? ;)

    Also, I understand about not being allowed to sell stuff, but are "donations" allowed, to re-plenish the supply, after all...?

    Might hit the spot after slaving all day over a hot swap meet!!

    Hi, Yes, all are welcome. See you there. No donations asked. Don't want to offend the HERCO folks.

  5. Get your taste buds in shape for the 3rd annual MOXIE tasting.

    Thursday afternoon, October 11th, 4:00PM at Space # C2I-44 in the Chocolate Field.

    New this year will be a chance to identify the taste. Possibly a prize for the most creative answer.:opost-30916-143139178693_thumb.jpg

    Sorry, but we're not allowed to sell any beverages in the flea market.

  6. That would be 600wt steam cylinder oil. I'm not sure what the modern weight designation is.

    Available from Mac's Auto Parts, or any lube oil distributor.

    I bought a 5-gallon pail from our local distributor last year, and hope that it will last a lifetime in our Chrysler.

  7. Hi,

    Yes, Jim.

    I have Maine plates on our trailer, GVACS has them on the club trailer, and also, Thorps have registered their trailers in Maine now.

    You still can be stopped and cited for no safety chains, lights out, etc. Just common sense items.

    I was stopped by a local officer who wanted to know why I had Maine plates. I told him that we had property there and that made him happy.

    The pluses: Two year registration, no inspections, and reasonable fees ($12.00/year)
