Container Ship Ablaze in the Atlantic. Any Collector Cars Aboard?
DLynskey replied to DLynskey's topic in General Discussion
Studemax, You know, I hadn't even noticed my error and I had to look several times to see it even after you pointed it out. It's a container ship, a very large one. Sorry, but the forum doesn't allow one to correct the title of a thread. Don -
The large container ship Flaminia has been burning for a couple of days in the mid-Atantic and has been abandoned by its crew. It's a German ship that left Charleston, SC July 8 bound for Antwerp, Belgium. I would guess it's loaded with BMW's from Greenville/Spartanburg. I hope no one lost any collector cars. Don

Wow! And only $1200. Somebody had better jump on that. Don

1935 Plymouth. I can't believe I beat Keiser with this ID. Don

Dave, I enjoyed meeting you in Charlotte. Attached are a couple of photos of your Crosleys. Wayne, if you get a section set up for Charlotte 2012 I'll post a bunch of photos from the show. Don

1950 Cadillac Fleetwood sedan. Don

It looks like a nice Crosley pickup parked behind the tanker. Don

All Cadillacs except the 75 received the new finned body style in 1948. The large 1948 Model 75 carried over the 1947 body style. Don

It's a 1926 for sure, a landau which is a little higher end than the standard 4-door sedan. The standard sedan has a squared off top and square rear quarter windows. The landau has the "leather" top extending down around the rear windows and the "landau irons" behind the rear quarter windows. In addition to the differences mentioned above the 1927 has a double belt line molding around the body which yours lacks. The 1925 didn't have the bar supporting the headlights; the headlights were mounted directly on the fenders. Here is a photo of a 1927 4-door sedan from the AACA Gallery: Service Station at Brooks,Powerland - The Texico Station at Brooks Powerland, Brooks,Oregon AACA PHOTO GALLERY I didn't find a photo of a 1926 sedan but you can see the differences here.

I didn't know what that one was, but early in the movie there was a Model T Ford truck which I thought was out of place on a British farm. Don

Obviously you didn't read that "it would make an awesome creampuff!!". How could anyone resist? Don

A trick I learned is to look at the dates on the window glass. It's usually found in the corner. I ran across a guy who claimed he had a 1943 sedan (it was obviously a 1946). I showed him that all the glass was dated 3/46. He was flustered, but still kept advertising at as a "1943 army staff car" even though it was a Master Deluxe with all the flashy chrome. Another place to look is the taillight lens. I don't know about cars of this era, but in the late 50's and early 60's the first two digits of the part number stamped in the lens represented the year (or was it the last two digits? That was a long time ago). This wasn't always right, but it was useful when I worked at a parts store and many people didn't know the year of their car. Let us know if you find any dates. Don

Chevrolet carried over the 1927 style radiator shell on the 1928 trucks instead of using the new style shell found on 1928 passenger cars. Don
