Ok, an OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT............ The White Motor Vehicle Gasoline Register has been born just recently. I will have more info soon. And yes, we will take trucks up to 1929. Ed

There is a shop in England that makes any rings to order, and price is reasonable.....I don't have the contact info. If you can't find it, PM me and I will make a call.

No. On pre war stuff, you can cook a cars harness especially if the cut out gets stuck closed........and also in the event of an electrical fire or electric fuel pump shut off. Many shipping companies want batteries disconnected.......easier with a switch than opening up a painted battery box and using tools. Same goes if you fly the car on an airplane........talk about headaches!

I would like to make additional comments, but the warning points are piling up........😇

EE-3’s are simple to rebuild. Getting all the channel plugs out of the casting without ruining the carb is the issue. (Without experience I would expect a very poor outcome. We practice on bad castings.) Most parts are available and some hard parts also if you have good contacts. Proper configuration of the unit is usually beyond 99 percent of most people’s ability, including shops and rebuilders. You can spend 500 bucks plating hardware depending on application. DD-3’s are a different bowl of fish. Much more difficult to do, especially if you need hard parts.

I think the parts that are salable on this car are much less than most people think. I have cut up close to 25 Pierce Arrows. Rusty junk doesn’t bring all the money. Example…Matt had the carb at 2500-3500. 1934 is the small carb……I have six available, clean and guaranteed good……..for 2k each, any takers? I have five of the 35-39 big ones that also go on Duesenbergs for 2700 each………satisfaction guaranteed. Bumpers are junk…..too pitted and rusty. Gauges are not hard to find…….I bought a 34 V-12 clock that runs for 250 bucks recently. Wheels are trash, along with most other things. Buy the car, haul/ship it…..and NO ONE wants to move a POS with flat tires………., disassemble, sort, inventory, list for sale, there is no money in that car cutting it up. Having done two 1934 V-12 Packards fairly recently, parts have not been an issue…….everyone who has stuff is looking to unload from an age/market place point of view. A few trinkets will always sell……..90 to 95 percent of that car is wall art or infinity shelf stock.

Get a 6 volt high amp switch.....NOT the crappy Chinese stuff......needs to handle 700 amps surge. Summit racing has good ones, just put it on a V-16 Caddy.

If you did ALL the labor yourself on the 34 Club Sedan, and just paid for materials and parts......you would be at 200K. And, that would NOT get you to 100 points. Just a very nice driver.

Should have had Rusty Jones give it a undercoat job!

I am told the bus has sold.....to a friend of a friend. The gentleman who owned the restored bus put his friend on it after I called him......so thanks to the AACA, it will be restored.

Winning bidder should be given a free tetnus shot……..

There is economic sense…….and economic suicide. Interesting challenge, yes…….but when finished it is still a car that was absolutely junk on wheels. I have done cars that were in similar condition. It’s twenty times the work than starting with good bones. And the odds of it being done correctly? Almost zero.

Yes, an AACA tour in Central Florida.

Works for me over the last 58 years........

My father and I owned a 1922 Moon car dealership for over fifty years, where we kept our collection and repair shop.

Black walls are a given........didn't need a comment.

Bipolar & schizophrenia with an unlimited bank account would be more helpful than a positive attitude........just saying. 😎

Jay needs to learn how to shift a PII......too much clashing...........he's spinning it too fast before he shifts.........

Need the serial number off the dash and engine please.......

Can't be too hard to figure it out........that car should have been in your garage. Looks nice.

Don’t have my info at home…….looks like a 1919 1 ton. Just a guess, possible a bit later.

Almost impossible………

Neat car……get a saws all and cut off the trunk rack and spot lights.

Someone is gonna flit it at Mecum! I smell a rat……why so early would two people battle it out? I don’t buy it. Looks like shill bidding to me.
