My friend owns a `1952?? or 53 ?? GMC ton truck that my grandfather bought brand new at Samuel F West Beer Dist. Lakeville NY. He removed the cab from the chassis , made a jig , so it could be worked on upside down. He has started rebuilding the rockers and life got busy for him and it needs to be sold. The chassis is together and runs great. The fenders and doors are in good condition . The glass is all good. He wants $2500 , its located in South Lima NY a bit south of Rochester NY , The cab on this truck is the same as a pickup truck cab. I dont have pictures but could get them if any one is interested. Call the owner "Skip" at 585 749 8392. Cab can be set back on chassis if buyer wants it to be.

This was my 31 Hudson 8 Club sedan . It had the Murray body. It had a lot of history in town here , wish I had it back but the guy that owns it loves it as much as I do. Its a car that never let me down. You could drive it anywhere, any temperature and it always got me there and home.

If it has compression, fuel and spark, and it doesn’t run…….it’s can’t be ANYTHING else but timing. That it doesn’t even pop off is a fairly good clue it’s a mile off. Pull the plugs, get number one on TDC and look at the timer.Or just hire someone with a screw driver, pump plyers and a piece of welding rod to stop over and start it.

Bring it to Livonia NY, go get a lunch and come back and drive it on your trailer.

Matt, I dont know what the problem is but im almost sure the mechanism is chain driven. Ive had several mid 20s Cadillac doors apart and all had chains and sprockets.

That's fantastic information, TG! If I'm not mistaken, Elcar had a model with a name similar to TravelAir.
My Grandfather Brown had a 1926 Elcar cabriolet, straight eight, from about 1927 to 1990. I am on my way back home from a funeral in Kansas and retraced much of the route he took the whole family on about 1929: Hutchinson, Kansas -> Wolf Creek Pass, CO -> Mesa Verde Nat'l Park, CO -> Hutchinson. It's about 640 miles one way to Mesa Verde.Where is your family car today?? Why after all those years was it sold?? Can it be bought back?? Please post a picture of it. Mike

Take out all four plugs and record the compression 1-4. Next use your squirt oil can and give each cylinder 4-5 shots of motor weight oil (20 or 30 weight). Then check the compression and record what you find 1-4. Lastly post your results.

Joe, The torque tub on your car is entirely different then on my model S. Or maybe it just looks different because I didn't have the Sheetmetal cover over the top to keep the road crap out?? Mine has a spool that adjusts in or out and a lock that retains it.
