  1. You are correct. The springs drop into the holes on the throttle and advance/retard levers and the stoppers sit on top. When assembled the springs pushing on the stoppers supply friction against the hub base and keeps the levers at the desired position. In the case of the throttle an early cruise control ( if your game!! ).
  2. No. There is no filter inside, just has vanes to circulate/spin the air and the theory is large particles will be thrown to the sides and out the small vent in the base. You should soak it in kero every so often and blow out with air.
  3. You can tell it's raining here - plenty of time to fiddle with the computer. This old thread would seem to tell us your hubcap is for 1932 because of the double vertical bar on the B. I would think it would be easier to locate a full set of 1930 wooden wheel caps than several 1932 caps.
  4. Well now I'm confused. With the two photos together I see the "B'' is different. This link may help especially the last couple of entries.
  5. When you say you have larger ones are they the same design as this? There is a size difference between the Series 40 and larger series in 1930. Can you measure the thread diameter to compare with file photos I have, I'm fairly sure you have a 40 Series cap.
  6. For Sale Pair of scripted International lenses, have part number 921391 ( guide part no. ) which identifies as 1937 to 1940 D Series International trucks. Lenses are used but in nice condition - see photos. Asking US$200 o.n.o. plus postage ( from Australia )
  7. Purchased this VANE ( 1960/70's ) engine analyser a few years ago. Works good and is helpful when tuning older cars. y
  8. Even with added 5% buyers premium still a pretty good buy.
  9. If it sells for the HIGH estimate someone will get a real bargain. SHANNONS have put a link to our Western Buicks site and the article I wrote years ago about it's purchase and restoration and your help is mentioned in that Rooster.
  10. Being sold as part of a deceased estate. https://www.shannons.com.au/auctions/2022-shannons-autumn-timed-online-auction/D15CAF75KIX81GRG/ Still looks good and if it sells in the estimate range will be a bargain for someone. I'm surprised at SHANNONS lack of knowledge about Buicks. Some interesting comments in the vehicle report i.e. under electrical they note the clock isn't working. If they opened the glove box they would have seen the clock is mechanical and requires winding every week or so!
