OK, unloading on Boathouse Rd. Is that where we leave the tow vehicle and trailer? That's a long hike for a handicapped person to get back to their truck.
-
Mike West, were there any Bausch and Lomb headlight lenses in those parts you just bought? Dave

We're bringing a Studebaker to try to sell in the Car Corral. Where do we unload the car and where can we park the tow vehicle and trailer during the day? Dave

Scott, sent you a message. Here' some pictures of Eddie's coupe.

Scott, looking for a Bausch and Lomb Star headlight lens for 25 11A coupe. 10 1/4 inch diameter. Dave

Can anyone identify the cars in the photos? I think I see a Willys and a 35 Ford standard Tudor.

We had nothing but troubles with the thumb wheel disconnects. I finally removed them from all the cars and threw them away. Now, if the car is going to be sitting for a bit, I remove a cable. This is especially easy if the battery is under the hood, a little more difficult when the battery is under the seat or floorboards. Dave

The saga of the stubborn Stude. First, thanks to all who responded. We checked ignition timing and it was dead on. We ran ground cables to starter bolt and grounded engine. Still extremely slow cranking. The starter was rebuilt by different people. We checked voltage across the battery posts, 6.29 volts. We checked the specific gravity of the electrolyte. Full charge. Finally, yesterday, we ran a load test on the battery, 375 cranking amps, the tester even said "change battery". So, pulled old battery out and went up to the local NAPA. Got a new battery, cranking test showed 675 amps. Put in the Stude, VOILA, cranks over like mad and starts right up. Now the old battery wasn't even 3 years old and has been maintained with battery tenders. Go figure. Thanks again for all the advice Dave

I'll try all of these suggestions today.

Still looking for a Bausch and Lomb STAR headlight lens. 10 1/4 inch diameter. Does any one have these? DP

Our 49 Stude Commander continues to be a hard starter. The starter motor has been rebuilt twice. It has a new battery, new 6 volt cables. It almost seems that the 6 cylinder engine has too much compression for the 6 volt battery. Has anyone experienced something like this? Do I need an 8 volt battery? DP

Grandson's 1925 Franklin Coupe need one Bausch and Lomb STAR headlight lens. It is 10 1/4 inch in diameter.

On my 11B the lighter is on a long reel that winds out and reaches all the way to the back seat so that Uncle Joe could light his cigar. Pulling out the little knob locks the cable. Pushing the knob back in unlocks the cable so that it winds back into the dash. Also, on my car, there is a small bracket on the firewall that holds a trouble light that can be screwed into the cigar lighter and then reeled out to help you see under the hood on a dark and dreary night.

Thanks Mike, we'll keep looking. Maybe we'll find something at Hershey. Dave Phillips

I like this front end more than the bullet nose. But I am in a minority here, I believe -
Eddie Fowler needs a Bausch and Lomb Star headlight lens for his 11A coupe. It is 10 1/4 inches in diameter. Can anyone help?
-
Looking at it closer, I think it is a 49 Super 6, with a 50 grille and a 50/51 steering wheel. The 1950 Hudsons had a split back window.
-
The parking lights seem to be a Pacemaker, but the dash is 49 Hudson. I have a 50 Hudson and the dash is nothing like that.
-
I agree with hook. I had a similar problem with my 11B. It was the coil. I relocated the coil inside the car and haven't had any problems since.
-
I think that convertible is a Terraplane 8. That looks like a red hexagon on the grille and the lettering looks like Essex Terraplane 8.
-
Thanks, Tom The speedometer is free, no swelling of the gears or casting. But very dry inside so I figured it needs some lube. Dave
-
How do I contact the seller about this Willys Knight?
-
Have started working again on the 1921 9B. What is the proper lubricant to use in the speedometer? Dave

Both Citroen and Peerless both had a design like hash marks on their crests.
