I had a request for a set of top irons abd found I had a few sets. The set in the pictures to the right are hi quality chrome over brass. The reason the one iron isnt folded out is it needed oiling and when I had the camera I didnt have the oil. THEY MEASURE 28 inches EYE TO EYE! Price is $200 plus shipping from 14487 Mike West 585 738 1541

The chrome will polish up fine for a driver ...(20 footer) Ive straightened the curl with blocks of wood to protect the finish in my vice .It bends fairly easy. I dont have any more time to work at this . The new price is 150 pkus shipping I estimate shipping to be 25-50 but will not know until I GO TO THE POST office, If you want them send 200 paypal TO MAWEST729@GMAIL.COM I will return any balance.

Hi Dale I have one of these cranes as well with no snatch block. Could you post a picture of the correct one?? Thanks Mike

If you need something moved north towards Rochester NY , I have a empty trailer in Englewood Florida. Call mike 585 738 1541

Sir , I just compared the shorter Irons .Its obvious now that one is bent. They are brass. Three of the 4 parts are the same but one leg needs to be flattened out some. I honesty didnt see it. Straightening it out should be a easy task. New Price- 150 .00 US plus postage If you say of Ill polish it up some. Please note Im leaving for Florida Saturday as our home was damaged in the recent hurricane. Mike

Yes I think the picture is misleading . Ill do as you suggest tonight and answer your concerns. Mike PS Yes the shorter irons are on the left.

How many do you get??

31 LaSalle , I have two sets of excellent condition folding irons . The chrome on them is very nice. Ill post pictures later today after I get back home. Mike Here are 2 sets bot will polish up on a wheel with some rouge. The smaller set measures 25 3/4 eye to eye. The bigger set 28 inches eye to eye. Id Like 200 each set shipped.

Another term born from all this is "When the shit hit the fan" or "The shit is going to hit the fan"!

If the car ran when parked, and it has gas, oil and spark, tow the damn thing .It will most likely start up within 10 ft. What is there to loose???

Dad always called it a shit spreader- aka Manure spreader. When I was a kid we had 6 Clydesdale's .They were retired horses from St Louis Budweiser team. Us boys spread a lot of horse shit.

ITS OFF A HORSEDRAWN SHIT SPREADER

I must be lucky. Ive bought 2 garage fresh Lincolns and both ran well with some massaging . I had a 23 L and a 30 K . Both ran nice and ran cool. Why is it assumed that every old Lincoln is a thrown rod away every time you drive it.. Is the old Fork and Blade rods that troublesome?? Or is it the mixture of aluminum and iron motors?? Its kind of sad that the quality cars like the Lincolns. , Pierces and Packards that are barn fresh are considered a piranha. I agree this old Lincoln has a cool look.

Yep Its a 1929. Most likely model 130

Sold, Going to Ft Worth Texas.

My FIRST DB touring I paid $350 for it . With a battery, gas and cleaning the points it ran. The saddles were missing though. That was 1972.

Frank what does the clutch casting measure at the small end?? Diameter?

Hi David, It might work out for a small early gas engine I have that is battery ignition. How much do you want for it>?? Mike

Frank what does the cone clutch casting measure?? The tank is Dodge Brothers I believe. How much is it??

Ive never heard that but Id love to know "The rest of the story".
