I am in need of the flat trunk rack for a 1934 LaSalle maybe Cadillac the same. I have the 2 heavy cast arms that swing out from the rear bumper area, but I am missing the flat rack that sits on top of and in between the 2 arms. Might be interested in other 1934 LaSalle parts, parts car, extra engine, etc. Thanks, Jim

Ed, thanks for letting everyone know. Always enjoyed his comments. Seemed like a great stand up guy. Couple weeks ago also, great Stearn Knight guy Mark Young gone, and now Dave S. "Whatever you want to do, do it now. There are only so many tomorrows." Michael Landon -

1920's Turn Signal Set. It has the original steering column levers and 2 arrow lights in both front and rear. Should help in today's traffic. -

2 Colors?? IMHO takes away & breaks up the streamline look. Monotone best. Still fun to see even with a non-original Piercing Orange??? Rare fender skirts. Nice it doesn't have side mounts in the pontoon fenders that was an option. Pontoon fenders 2 years before Cord.

1934 LaSalle survivor car
34LaSalleClubSedan posted a topic in The Unrestored Car Appreciation Forum
Here are some pics of my 1934 LaSalle survivor car. I've had it for over 20 years now. All original paint, upholstery. My friend Jim Griffin and myself did an engine job in the car overall. Rings, Valves, bearings, starter, generator, water pump, fuel pump, etc. It's a wonderful driving car. Much better handing, steering, driving, and comfort than my 1934 Chrysler Airflow Coupe. I wish the LaSalle had an overdrive and a few more horsepower like the Airflow. I am the 3rd owner. I bought the LaSalle from John (Bud) Sullivan Jr. and his wife Phyllis Sullivan. It was their honeymoon car in the 1940's. Bud was a gear head and had many cars and motorcycles over his lifetime. The LaSalle made a couple trips to the Indy 500 over the years. Here are some pictures when I first saw the car, some vintage pictures. Notice the dent in the right rear fender in 1940 is still there. The car did polish up very nice. The best part of this story because of their car, I became good friends with this wonderful WW2 couple from the greatest generation. They became like my 2nd parents. My parents are gone as well as Bud and Phyllis are gone now. I will never forget their friendship. I think we are getting down to about 150,000 WW2 survivors now. Let's never forget that generation when this country was good & great.- 1 reply

I believe that John also owned the 20 Grand Duesey. Many great cars left Minnesota years ago. -

The Raymond Loewy design 1933 Cycle Fender Hupps, the hood went all the way back to the windshield and over top of the cowl. 1932 Loewy Hupp only went back to the firewall -
I see you finally made it to 15,000 post after 20 years plus. What took so long

West, the Major Bowes CW Custom Imperial is a 1937 model. It was saved and restored by the late Frank Kleptz. All the CW engines were build in 1934. When Frank restored the car the original engine was long gone. The engine in the Major Bowes car is from a 1935 CW. The 1935 CW where the donated engine came from, has been somewhat restored with an incorrect 1933 Custom Imperial CL and is in the Chicago area now. Only 3 CW's were built in 1937. Major Bowes, Milton Hershey had one, believed to have gone to the WWII scrap drive, but the 2 fender shirts did survive, and the other 37 CW is owned by the Phillippine Govt and has somewhat restored. Hyman has the Major Bowes for sale on his website. Jim F

Many original Packard"s did not have the date delivered, and the name of the Packard Dealer stamped on the serial number plate. -

Does anyone know if the family of the late Henry Yeska still deal with reproduction parts? If so, contact info. Thanks, Jim

Never seen one of these let alone a pair. Would look great on that survivor Brass era car, or Nickel era car running boards as is. Or easy to restore for that show car. Solid Wood body. Just paint, add 2 new leather straps on top & front, and plate the 4 corners on each trunk. No rot on either one. Super Solid. Just looks crusty in the pics. With new paint will look like new. If you do a lot of car tours with your car these will really come in handy. Modoc or Snapper tours or HCCA. Never enough space with these old cars to store items when traveling. Price $600.00 for the pair. St.Paul, Minnesota
