Im selling several Franklins - some running and some not. In interest to get a few sold, Im offering 0% financing with 25% down at the time of signing and a payment required each month up to 6 months or 1 year. At the end of the agreed term the balance is all due and payable. This is a great opportunity for someone that wants a Franklin but needs to sell something else. I would like to see these cars stay in the H.H. Franklin Club or inspire new members to join. None of these cars has every attended the Franklin Trek. Call or email Mike at 585 738 1541 /email mawest729@gmail for details. Cars are located upstate NY . These are all very desirable and scarce model cars. Thank you! Mike

Nice find!

You might have to change out the clutch though as the 12 may have a larger imput shaft.

You could run a 31-33 8 cyl gearbox until you find the correct one.

Check with Mike Samson Ill. also check with the Vintage Rod Shop in BC Canada , I sold him one last year.

David, Im surprised you would endorse Carroll Leather when the very hides that you recommended to Restorer32 are advertised as thinner that the hides I bought and more than 5 times as much money. What I have in hand and are top notch quality. Ive learned after almost 60 years of living not to believe every expert opinion. Ive learned my lessons by actions and not words of others. My only reason that I posted about the black graphite hides I bought as they are great quality , great size and a great price. I really wish I didn't say anything about them and just used them. My motive was to bring to light the sellers web site as I was impressed with the what he sold me and the great service I received and the great total refund promise if I wasn't happy. Im not trying to get into a volley of words , just setting the record straight. Have a good afternoon! Your friend , Mike West

I would suggest calling the owner and visit with him. He is very anxious to do business. Im not an upholsterer but I have bought hides for several high end restorations and they satisfied me. You are correct that only the Graphite Black is on sale.

They were $225.00 marked down to get sold. He has 700 of these hides as of today. He accepts full refunds within 7 days. I cant be happier with what I bought! . Check out the link provided.

https://www.discountleatherhides.com/ Last week I was looking for some black or dark charcoal leather hides for my 1910 Mitchell project. I ran across this site and after talking with the owner went for some Dark Graphite hides , average 55 sf, with a medium sheen. I got my hides within 2 days FedEx and cant be happier with them. These were $225.00 each marked down to $55.00 each. The owner made a large purchase wants them sold. Check it out! He accepts full refunds with 7 days . The hides are excellent !

Chassis paint recommendation sought

Im curious how was the frame originally fastened together? All the frames Ive worked on are hot riveted together ( the cross members to frame rails). Will you sandblast all the pieces, rivet the frame together and then finish ? The riveting causes damage to the primer and paints. When Ive had to disassemble and rivet I use acid etching primer first and then reassemble , them use the finish products . Im just curious what you were going to do. Mike
