  1. Carbking is right; two of the stock carbs are only identified in the parts book with part nos....one of those may be the Stewart unit you have. My response might have been at little to technical.

  2. The series 58's had four different carbs as stock part nos. 39314, 37998 (Stewart model 30), 38033 (Zenith) and 39053. The five digit nos. are Chrysler part nos. from their catalogue This is all the parts book I have indicate. The catalogue shows part no. A-829 for the generator. All of these are Chrysler "part nos." in the Master Parts list I have. Chrysler were "assembled" cars basically in this era; built from outside sourced parts. Are you a member of the WPC Club? By the way...your car looks quite nice.

  3. Are they front or rear wheels?.....note; fronts have bearing races for tapered bearings....rears have key slots for axle keys....They appear to be of '26 to '31 vintage...note they appear to have internal expanding brake drums...more close ups would be helpful.

  4. According to the "Lincoln Service Bulletin" of January, 1930 (vol. 7 no. 1) a new steering gear assembly was introduced on the "new models". There were 4 assembly part numbers: L-50642-AR stamped M, L-50642-BR stamped N, L-50642-CR stamped P L-50642-DR stamped Q. All the parts except the housings ( internals, etc.) were the same; the housings had different angles to them to fit different bodies. The worm and rollers were the same for all four assemblies and had a 18 to 1 ratio. Are you a member of the Lincoln Owners Club?

  5. Rusty....the Chrysler had a very well engineered suspension and brake system....the red head flat head six was fed by a dual throat updraft carb....Chrysler's engineering team...Zeder, Breer and Skelton were exceptional. By the way Stutz should have won it...if they had not stripped out third gear part of the way through the race and had to finish in second gear they probably would have won!
