  1. Organic and recyclable, the vehicle of the future?
  2. Of course they will not be owner installed or the maker won't get the $99 installation fee!
  3. Well we know where this is headed! Make them flash with the lights for an emergency, connected to the internet of course so the police can make them say " I am stolen", the possibilities are almost endless and troubling.
  4. Aren't MEA magnetos French, not German?
  5. 3 cylinder radial aircraft engine? Here is an Anzani but it has another make of magneto on it.
  6. Original spare wheel center dust cover, since it has a Stutz emblem it came off a Series AA or BB Stutz but just put your emblem on ( same as on a hubcap) for other cars. Fits all Buffalo B5 size wheel centers. Far more rare than a hubcap! $275 Happy to answer any questions, can post worldwide.
  7. Nice Bosch switch for 2 spark dual system, marked 2 1 2. Functions perfectly. Happy to answer any questions or send more pictures.
  8. Cadillac handy appliance on the battlefield. I understand that Cadillac was selected for manufacture after measuring all the assembly lines in the US. Cadillac had the largest "hole" down thru the factory, they could build the biggest vehicle of any assembly line.
  9. Nice pair of New Old Stock nickel plated hubcaps with grease fittings, makes it easy to lube your front wheel bearings! $75 pair, domestic postage $10.
  10. Bosch magneto original manuals for sale or trade, $125 each, have many other titles, would trade for pieces I do not have. DU-4 with manual advance, also covers 3 and 6 cylinder Dual ignition for DU and ZR magnetos
  11. Small A size Winfield carburetor, no apparent damage, seems complete, got it with a load of Model T and Model A Ford parts. $675, domestic postage $25.
  12. I can still remember back in my Navy days when we used to joke " If you cannot dazzle them with your brilliance, baffle them with Bull S__t".
  13. Only in the very early years 1909-1910 was a Landaulet and a Towncar available. 1919 was the last year of a Ford offered Towncar, by then it may have had the solid back, documentation on these is very thin. These bodies were made by outside suppliers and by the end of Ford involvement most sales were to the commercial trade rather than luxury. A switch to perhaps cheaper, definitely more waterproof and modern styled construction was inevitable. This/these are most likely Ford sold chassis with aftermarket body as you originally suggested. Ford did a good business in chassis only, in fact the first 5 years of truck production was chassis only, The body manufacturer to Ford would surely would have continued on making bodies ( updated), buying chassis from Ford and selling taxi type service vehicles.
  14. So a question remains... Are the 2 NYC pictures of the same car? Same tire treads, accessory rear bumper ( with chain and lock to spare tire) and probably same license plate and replacement tail lamp.
  15. Yes a Ford offered body. By 1915 more of these were used as a taxi than a chauffeur driven "towncar".
  16. Original Stromberg steering column mounted control, Stutz used these on 4 cylinder cars including the Bearcat. Many other cars did so too. Can be used for either choke or mixture control. Happy to answer any questions. $165
  17. Splitdorf aircraft ignition switch for engine with both a distributor and a magneto ( 2 spark plugs per cylinder), from the 1920s and still in good shape ready to run. Will of course work for one distributor OR one magneto! Asking $235.
  18. Remy ignition switch model ZA for REO 1914 and later, perhaps as late as 1920. Works perfectly, has key, asking $135.
  19. Looking for Schrader metal stems for tire tubes, number 1822 also may be marked TR-7.
  20. Houk left side ( right hand thread) hubcap with nice threads for late era ( approx. 1920-24) cars with #5 size hubs. Asking $165 Happy to answer any questions, domestic postage $15.
