Yes, Carl is correct. The cast aluminum housing and the bale as pictured. Thanks for adding the picture. Dennis

Restorer, Sounds like the makings of a TV show!! Just Kidding. Best of luck. Dennis

Like to find the distributor cover and bale. 24 V-63 Thanks, Dennis

Does the Elgin have any provision for dash mount? Threaded holes or studs? I can't tell in the pictures. Thanks, Dennis

Thanks Larry, Merv has some but I have not got a reply yet. Chris H. does not have any. I will try the other sources. I thought I'd try here first. It's one of those parts that could be rattling around in the extra bolts if anybody had a parts car. Dennis

Hello, I am about done assembling my Continental. I hope. I'm looking for one clamp for the fender skirts. It's about 1-1/4'' long and 1-3/8'' wide and I think it may be part number 26H-16254. It clamps the back half of the fender skirt to the fender. I could make one but it has serrations on the bottom. It would be somewhat time consuming. Just checking to see if some one has a straggler in their bolt box. That's where I found the one I have. Thanks Dennis

Thanks what a beauty!

What is the story on the blue Auburn cabriolet in 35 Packard's post above? Runningboards and fenders? Body builder? Any more pictures? Thanks, Dennis

Mike, Does your engine have a oil return pipe on the rear main cap? Does it have a vacuum pipe from the intake to the valley pan? I had similar issues with my 37 (no seal) that I resolved. Dennis

Thanks for the replies. I have not started disassembly but will have to in about a week or so. I will post back with what I find or make. Thanks, Dennis

Hello , I had intended to polish the paint and chrome pieces on my top frame , but unfortunately they are not going to make the grade. I will have to disassemble and plate/paint. Any guidance or suggestions from somebody who has been there/done that? I assume there are replacement fasteners for the rivetted joints. Is there a good source? Kits? Thanks in advance, Dennis

No Scam, E-mail worked for me. I talked to John on the telephone. Nice gentleman. Dennis

No worries Larry, I plan to be there. While I don't find the car all that attractive, I am curious about the engine. The poster and the Standard Catalog both list this as a OHV 4 cylinder. Was this their own manufacture or assembled? Dennis

Larry, He mentioned this car will be at Auburn fall. Labor day weekend. Dennis

Terry, Sent you a PM. Dennis
