My friends are "professional vendors". They said Wednesday and Thursday have been great. Another person is a car dealer (typically 1950s-1970s) and said he has sold 3 of the 5 cars so far. Carlisle is still a good place.

Here is an incomplete Bosch ZU4 that turns clockwise. It is dirty. The magneto turns smoothly. Take a look at the photos, it is what it is.
Here is a copy of the Bosch ZU4 manual: Robert Bosch ZU4 ZU6 ZF4 ZF6 Magneto Manual (oldcroak.com)
The price is 85.00 including shipping in the USA (It is HEAVY!)

If you can afford it, then buy it now. After all, how long will you be dead?

The 1913 Model 31 Touring has a 201 CID engine and is on the 108 inch chassis.
The 1913 Model 25 Touring has a 165 CID engine and is on the 105 inch chassis.
These are both called 3 Door Touring cars. (The front driver's side does not have an opening door, so there are only three doors)
I am not sure what the brand of the sidelamps and headlamps are, but here is a Gray and Davis taillamp from the era. Typically, all of the five lamps would be from the same company.
You have a great car. I kind of remember this car from Michigan, but I don't know the history.
Enjoy! Buicks are GREAT cars!!!

I believe this car was from the Mitosinka collection which was sold at auction in about 2000. He was an old car dealer from LA area. I remember him when I was a kid. He had a few interesting Stutz cars.
Nice car. I like the "improved" fenders.

Wayne- Thank you for the great write up on the Charles Montier and his Model Ts. I love the engine-cross flow overhead valve head, twin ignition magneto, side draft carburetors, front plate oil pump, and NO starter!! And then there is the four wheel brakes and three speed transmission with overdrive too! This is an important Model T racecar with great history. Hopefully, it will be bought and returned to France.

This great Rambler is in a collection in Southern California again. And it is driven regularly.

I would price these at a reasonable price for the pair at about 800.00-1,000.00 due to their condition. If they were restored, they would be around 1,500.00 or more. Solar headlamps are always popular. I would list them For Sale on www.hcca.org

IT SOLD FAST!!!!
Here is a very nice, original CM Hall Detroit Model 5 brass and nickel "helmet" tail light. It measures about 5 1/2" by 5 1/2" by 5 1/2". This is an electric tail light that would be mounted on a spade bracket. It is in really nice condition with two good lenses (red ribbed and clear), reflector, rim thumbnut, socket, etc. I would date this from about approximately 1912'ish to 1917'ish. It could be kept as-is for an original car, polished for an older restoration, or could be very easily restored.
The price is 250.00 including FedEx shipping and insurance within the USA.

When I was about 16 years old, which would be about 1982, there was a friend named George Templeton. He lived in the Long Beach, CA. area. He built/restored a boat tail c. 1925 Chevrolet speedster. It had a blue body, black top, black fenders and blue disc wheels. It had a "fat man" steering wheel and a Winfield carburetor. (Don't I have a great memory??!!) It had an appearance look like a period Mercury speedster body. He owned the car for years. I think he left Long Beach and moved somewhere in Northern California. The car ended up with another guy in one of the southern states (Atlanta? North Carolina? or ?). That person had the car advertised in Hemmings about 3 to 5 years ago.
This is a random shot, but does anyone know this car or who owns it now? I should have bought the car when it was advertised in Hemmings. I have no idea who or was the owner at the time.
Thanks.

I sold ZR4 and ZR6 Dual magnetos for 400.00-600.00 in good original condition but not rebuilt. However, that was awhile back. I haven't had one in awhile. Twin spark magnetos are A LOT more money.

The bore or "intake mouth" ( I assume this is what you asking?) is 1 1/4". The center to center bolt holes are 2 1/2"

Being a 1915, it is "legal" in the Horseless Carriage Club of America. We have a lot of fun with these 1915 and earlier cars!!!
This looks like a fun car. You can work on it at the same time that you drive it.
Early Buicks are good cars and have a strong following too.

Always choose a Model A!!!!! Great cars, easy to work on, easy get parts too. You can repaint the wheels, if you don't like the color however, you can repaint them at any time. I would paint them black with black walls, but that is just my opinion. First, get the Model A and enjoy it!!!

This is a very nice, early black and nickel bulb horn assembly that is from 1911 through 1914'ish. It is complete with the horn, horn mounting bracket, tubes, tube bracket, reed, etc. The horn itself is about 4 1/2" wide by 9" tall and the tubing is about 50" long. The horn appears to be original including the paint and the nickel plating which is excellent. There are no dents, etc. It can be used on a right or left hand drive car. It is excellent condition and might even be new old stock. It blows loud too!
The price is 450.00 including FedEx Ground shipping/insurance in the USA. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks for the racing film! Great stuff.
What is the shaded green lens on this very early light?
in What is it?
Posted · Edited by motoringicons (see edit history)
I just bought this great pair of large early French sidelamps that are about 14" tall. Interestingly, one of the lens has a green shade ring. Both of the lens are identical-but one has the green tint around the lens. They are a pair. It is embedded in the glass, it cannot be removed or applied. I assume it for a warning or but why just one ? Thoughts please!!
