  1. No problem, actually, I bought one yellow AC NOS oil canister assembly couple years ago for my -38 Dodge truck. I didn't know them it was for Chevy. Now I'm thinking should I use it or not frown.gif It fits like a glove, but still...

    The oil filter in that it quite awesome, the original at least, in shiny black/yellow color!!!

    Do you mean work gloves, winter gloves or racing gloves???? wink.gif </div></div>

    Racing gloves of course. I need them when racing downtown against rice burners with my 1938 Dodge truck!! They help to do fast shifting with the orig 3speed manual transmission!! crazy.gifgrin.gif

    Continentals!!!!??? Mika, those are fighting words!! Franklins were known for having air-cooled engines. The engine was entirely of Franklin's own design and manufacture. These are the best photos I have of the Olympic's engine, showing it with and without the cooling shrouds.

    Oooops blush.gif Sorry, Steve. whistle.gif

    Thanks for the info. That Franklin photobook might be worth of purchasing?

  4. Atleast my '39 Dodge had a negative ground as well my '38 Dodge truck. I've heard that Chryco used + ground but never seen one live laugh.gif

    If your car has - ground, I do think that's original. Because - at my knowledge - if you convert the system to "other" ground that it really is, the starter motor turns backwards(if you don't remake the coil in it), and then you have a problem.

    Yep, sometimes they used engine number on titles.

    Got any pictures available of your Plymouth? laugh.gif

    Does anyone have a price guide, that shows the app. prices of these fine automobiles? (1932-33 Franklins) I think I'll have to add one for my must-buy list. These look so neat.

  6. I have been looking for a car. An old one. Again.

    The one that atracts me is located in Minneapolis. OK, it's "regular" model car, not rare, not a real classic, it doesn't even run. But it's a kind a car that were used in Finland before IIWW. Actually there has been quite number of those, but all have been rusted away(well, the most atleast).

    I'm just thinking the options to <span style="font-weight: bold">get the car to the coast</span> where it could be shipped to Finland.

    What are the available options? Is it ALWAYS expensive to do?

    I know atleast that there are guys in Okeechobee,Florida, in Houston, Texas and in LA, California that ship the cars to Finland, but the road for those places from Minneapolis is loooong...

    Any suggestions? How and Where? You guys know better than me!

    Someone might ask why? Well, it's just me and my hobby whistle.gif
