  1. Can someone explain why we need TWO AACA groups? Kids on Face Book can't figure out how to join this group?
  2. 1969 was my first year at Hershey, haven't missed one yet. Quality of parts I bring is questionable, the internet has changed that, you can sell "Good Stuff" year round now. I really miss the great people that were part of the show in the past, I think about them every year at Hershey. Miss the mud and our favorite food vendor that was just across the isle for years. See you all next week. Bob
  3. Nice truck no need to restore every vehicle in the world.
  4. Whatever it is, eBay is masking a HUGE profit on it, USPS "Media Mail" rate is the best way to ship books IMO.
  5. Front of the hub cap to the front of the rear hub cap, eliminated the misplacing of the center of the cap.
  6. Great to see this J again and know it hasn't changed a bit since it drove onto the Veterans Park show field at the Ridgefield Meet back in the 1990's. Pebble Beach was GREAT this year saw a lot of great cars. Bob
  7. I made all the "Big Bucks" selling MILLER and Winfield carburetors. Always felt bad for the guy that needed the UUR2 for a White truck.
  8. Thanks for the link, some great late 1930's builds, hope it went to a person that is into that stuff.
  9. I found some Cole photos on another site, when I find them I'll be back and post them. Nice storage area. Bob
  10. You'd have a hard time explaining the value of "Modern Art" to me, but I did enjoy driving past the bulldozer display at the Aldrich Museum every day.
  11. Tried Google and they don't have a definition of ROP , could you get the AACA readers up to speed?
  12. I'll never have this problem, but the size and height of J hand brake and gear shift levers just looks so out of place. Would the car be confiscated if the owner decided to shorten them so they fit under the dashboard?
  13. I never went to an original Iron Range on Long Island but knew people that did and know the true meaning and memories the Dragone's have attached to it. 99.9% chance of seeing us there. Bob
  14. Paul Stern had a Chrysler collection in Pennsylvania with a twin to your car in the 1980's.
  15. That was a smart move, can't think of another six that had two heads.
  16. Looks like a nice solid car to start on. I don't know anything about Pontiacs, but wonder if the heads can interchange front to back?
  17. Not all things have a dollar value, that is the current problem with society.
  18. Wonder if they painted Overland on the hood knowing that a 100 years later people might need to ID the car in photos?
  19. Louie Biondi had a Middleby, think his family sold it. I've always thought the 1899 Hertel was unique, Fountinhead is the current caretaker. It can be seen touring NYC in a movie shot by Thomas Edison in 1899. 1899 (Oakman) Hertel Runabout at the Fountainhead Museum, Fairbanks Alaska - Photo and Videos - Antique Automobile Club of America - Discussion Forums (aaca.org)
  20. Walt, I have a period scrap book with some related photos and event statistics, that a kid put together in Philadelphia around 1910. He grew up to own a car in the INDY 500 in 1925
  21. Should newspapers that were folded for mailing in 1939 be left that way or should they be opened and stored flat?
  22. Two great looking Stanley's! There was a huge amount of interest in them in this area 20 years ago but the major players have passed on, hope the steam hobby is still active. Fouty five years ago later this month we used a friend's 20HP Touring for our wedding car.
