  1. It can be either. To kill the motor you only need to ground the mag like any magneto.

  6. I recently bought a original 1937 Buick . The car came from PA., is not rusty but has plenty of road grime, hard old grease and oil buildup. I want to clean it up real sanitary. The dry ice blasting looks great but I've gotten one price locally at $2200 -2500 $. Has anyone else used it?? Thank you mike
  7. Charles what is the stated model on the engine and what is the bore and stroke/?
  8. David, Have you tried to start the motor yet// ??? I wouldnt get all hung up on the questions you have posted/ Those answers are most likely lost to time. Keep in mind what the purpose of the build was..... to demonstrate and prove the friction drive and unique differential. I would clean it up, reassemble in its current state and get it runnable. Its a unique piece , show it off as is!! The car is more valuable and unique as is then with new paint and lipstick! Mike West
  9. If someone wants a famous songwriters car , I've got Pat Ballard's Franklin. His bug song was MrSandman performed by the Chordettes! ( I think his notoriety was a flash the pan ) ..... smile
  10. Years ago at the Franklin Trek the New England Boys arrived with Frank Netetoms car backfiring , loos of power ect . I reached down and touched the coil .it was on fire.... I poured some cold Budweiser on it and magically the coil worked again. Off the the NAPA he went and got a cheap universal 6 colt coil and problem was fixed.
  11. I have a friend in Bozeman that will pay a visit if he connects with the seller.
  12. All models and years considered. The display will be the THREE Ps. Packard, Pierce, Peerless. Mike 585 738 1541 serious buyer.
  13. I could sell that car to two different old boy collectors. The workmanship looks good and it's on a great platform. The car has to be appreciated for its workmanship, not the novel.
  14. 10k too much.... the tide has turned on the price of a lot of common cars.
  15. What I was a kid I didn't have a hone for wheel cylinders or the master cyl. I used a piece of wood dowel , cut a slit in it and used a piece very fine emery cloth sliding the slit. It worked good.
  16. My friend has the bolts but no clips
  17. Id like to see a picture of the gas tank if he has one/
  18. The car has been advertised quite a bit already, not much to say about it anymore except that if he lowers the price another 5000 it will find a new home.
  19. Don The drive you see here has spider gears no different than any differential. If you want to make up a chain drive assembley get your self a model T rear axle or any other early differential and cut down the tubes.
