1927 Lincoln Dietrich Convertible Coupe
K8096 replied to alsancle's topic in "Not Mine" Automobiles For Sale
Let me guess. The rubber in the inner bushings on the Safety Flex suspension were never replaced and when the rubber crumbled it caused the front wheels to be out of alignment with excessive tire wear. Don’t ask me how I know. -

Someone needs to save this before this dummy turns it into a hot rod. Irwin, PA is just East of Pittsburgh right off the turnpike. You must contact the seller through Facebook.

I gave her a brick from the Peerless factory 20+ years ago to go along with her Peerless.

1930 Rolls Royce Phantom II Sedanca - $79,995

This car could be the back end of a body swap. The more desirable 2 door body put on a more desirable or better condition chassis. The rear fenders on this look like they’re from a late 30s or 40s car. The landau bars are on upside down. Also the temp and ammeter gauges are modern replacements. -
The Ultramatic didn't come out until the 23rd series Packard cars which I believe were introduced mid year 1949. No 1948 or early 1949 22nd series Packards had Ultramatic.

1937 Cadillac coupe, not mine.
K8096 replied to Xander Wildeisen's topic in "Not Mine" Automobiles For Sale
Interesting it only has one taillight. By 1937 I would have thought Cadillac had 2 taillights on everything, including its lower priced models like this one. Or perhaps it was filled in, but it doesn’t look to be. -
Looks like a decent car. It’s a 61 series though, not a 62. Upholstery material is wrong too.

1950 Packard Custom Eight - $20,000 OBO

I actually believe all 1950 Custom 8s came with Ultramatic. -

But unfortunately with the Ultramatic transmission which makes it a slug to drive. -
The “optional power top mechanism” the ad mentions wasn’t optional at all. All 3100 1941 Cadillac 62 series convertible coupes produced came from the factory with a vacuum operated top. And yes, the color isn’t even close to the original Valcour maroon, which is a very dark, muddy maroon. This car is painted restoration red. Too bad they didn’t include a picture of the cowl mounted data tag. We could have figured out what color it was originally

Yesterday was March 13th and it was 60 degrees & sunny. Perfect day for a drive in a convertible. I love global warming.

Lincoln front trim, maybe 21st century?

Looks like they overfilled the radiator & antifreeze went out the overflow tube once the car warmed up.

1941 Cadillac Series 61 - $24,500
K8096 replied to Leif in Calif's topic in "Not Mine" Automobiles For Sale
I like it, but the wrong upholstery material kills it for me. Looks like velour. Here’s a mint one in the same colors I saw a few years back. They look so much better with the skirts on. -
March 3rd. 50 degrees and no salt on the streets. Perfect day for a drive. IMG_3484.mov
