  1. They are from the 1909-11 era, not sure of the make. PM me if you plan to sell them.
  2. Good Lord! Can you imagine how loud the sound system will be after that crew is finished with it? Probably have contests to see how far away they can blow out the tinted windows.
  3. If you really want to get the most you can for the car on an internet sale, find someone that can take clear photos.
  4. Call Greyhound Express and see what they want to ship it. I use them for large items, very happy with the service.
  5. Your quarters look like they are from a 5 passenger coupe, not a roadster, may in fact be Buick.
  6. <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">That little "crease" or dip on the top of the hood makes me think it might be a White... probably around 1912. </div></div> I agree, White used that distictive radiator shape up until 1916.
  7. I was told Warren mover to Maryland,you may want to ask Steve at AACA Headquarters for his current address.
  8. Years ago I did have an original list of New York registrations it may have been 1904 -05. Small black covered bood about 6x4, I remember there was a car that belonged to the Roebling family of Brooklyn Bridge fame listed. Do a Google search for the American License Plate Collectors, they may be able to help. There is a New York Plate website as well. <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
  9. It's a Metz, the unique wheel hubs and shape of the hood are the major clues.
  10. Nice shots, thanks for posting them, I did see them last week on the "other" site. <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />Bob
  11. Perfect weather! Had a good time, wish there had been more old parts.
  12. Our goal is to be on the field by 7:30, hope someone remembers to bring along PreWar parts. <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />
  13. The walking beam Duesenberg race car was in a disassembled pile in the back corner of Vintage Auto Restorations the day I started in 1970. We litterly chimbed over the pile to get to other things over the years. Austie finally swaped it even for a 3 liter Bentley to a fellow in Colorado who restored it. After he passed on it went to a collector in Mass. David Greenleas cast a new block for it and I finally got a ride it the car 2-3 years ago through the back roads around Sharron, Ct. GREAT Automobile!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  14. Most of the cars sold at auction before the Museum closed. The fire engine may have gone to the Bill Harrah Collection at that time. Many of Austie's cars sold to some of the other great collectors of the time, tracing their current ownership is something I enjoy doing.
  15. Were are you, do you have a frame for sale?
  16. I renamed that Old Cars Weakly when they stoped covering early cars and focused on late model stuff. I've read a lot of Ken's stuff would like to see someone post a link to the article. Have you ever seen the photos of his garage wall art? <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
  17. That was a highlight thread on the HAMB last week. It is safe & sound in a fine sports car collection in Philadelphia. <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
  18. The Fair Grounds really make the meet, I don't think there is a better maintained site. There will be a Antique Motorcycle Club of America meet ther in July, and the GoodGuys Street Rod Meet in the fall.
  19. GREAT Swap Meet! I think I missed the very first one, haven't missed one since. There were some great deals there over the years, you still have a chance at finding a few good Pre 1940 bits. Never been there on Sunday since that conflicts with the CSRA Swap Meet in Bristol, Ct. <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
  20. Chances are it was built by Chrysler.
  21. <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Don't worry Bob, I've got a Miller on the list. But that's another subject... race cars. </div></div> I saw a fully restored Kelsey Motorette back in 1965 and always thought it would be a fun car to own. I've got a fair amount of original literature.
  22. <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body"><div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">"The Original" SILVER-GHOST </div></div> I think my number one favorite "big" brass car would be the 1912 Silver Ghost that was named "The Mystery." Is this the car you are referring to? </div></div> I picked the Miller because I thought you wanted SMALL cars, 91 cubic inches is small in my opinion. Add a T head MERCER to my list if you think that is small. <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
  23. Is this the one with the broken crankcase that the brothers had in Middlefield, Ct. a few years ago?
  24. Not Ford, they look to be 5 passenger Coupe/Victory body garnish mouldings.
  25. There will always be room for a 91ci MILLER in my garage or living room. <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
