Does anyone know of the current disposition of the Locomobile Junior 8, which is the subject of this thread? Did it find a new home? If so where did it go? Al

Good Morning Mike, Sadly, this year I will not be making the trek to Hershey. (I have other pushing commitments). I would like to know more about your fenders. If you have pictures, either post here or send a PM. Tell me what you can about the car that was used as a pattern from which your fenders were built. As I recall, your Locomobile is a 1914 and you are guessing that your fenders are replicated from a 1911 or 12? Al

Not going to Hershey this year. How much are you wanting for the headlamp brackets?

I am looking for a Locomobile front axle from 1909 to 1915 (or there abouts). If you have seen a hay wagon or cart that has been made out of a Locomobile axle, drop me a note. Al

Hello Gary, You are doing a great thing and also learning a skill along the way. It must be very rewarding for you. Al

I looked in EBAY and as a fact, the auction has ended so you would need to search "ended" auctions. The auction has closed but does not appear to have sold. I monkeyed around and hope that I have grabbed an image of this truck cab back panel and can get it to post here for everyone to help me determine if it is right and can work for my 1922-23 Dodge Bros.screen side truck. (success, please see the attached picture of the cab back panel) Please share your observations or suggest questions/measurements I need to ask the seller to verify proper fit for my application. Regards, Al

Hello JayG, At this moment I do not need a transmission but that can change when I get into the mechanics of this project. Hello Stakeside, I do not know how to attach a link to EBAY, sorry. The EBAY item number is what you would need to copy, go to EBAY then paste the number into the EBAY search, you should see this cab back panel and maybe help me to determine if it is the right piece for a 1922-23 Dodge screenside. Thanks for your response. Regards, Alan

Does anyone need the bumpers to complete a 1937 Chrysler airflow? I have them and can get pictures. Al

What brand is your trailer? Looks like you should be ready for some fun....... Al

I am saving up parts to build a 1923 Dodge Bros. Screen Side. EBAY currently has, what is represented as, a back panel. The EBAY item number is: 173511853626. Would a few of you guys, that know screen side trucks, please take a look and see if that panel is correct for me to use on my 1923? Please post me a note or a PM. Secondly, I am interested in a few parts for that project, front fenders, cab back panel both upper and lower, and the quarter panels behind the doors. I have the proper Screen side chassis, tank, cowl, running engine, "C" parts of the cab and doors. Help me if you can. Thanks, Alan

Does anyone happen to have an early Locomobile front axle, under a cart or hay wagon, that is available for sale? Al

Nice car Tom, certainly a different piece from your "T" or American-LaFrance speedsters. Al

Joe, A couple of my friends have had ceramic coating put on 1929 and 1930 Cadillac manifolds, looks nice but they didn't have real good luck with longevity. I would like to try out your source also. I am waiting to see your finished manifold. Al PS: my latest adventure is helping a friend get a missing planetary reverse drum recast for his 1903 Rambler. We were at our foundry just yesterday with our borrowed pattern and are now in line to complete his transmission. That is the latest.

Hello hanskirp, When I get the quote for duplication I will send that information over to you. I do plan to use a modern high temp alternative to the original bakelite with a threaded brass inset to thread to the radiator neck. I would need confirmation of your radiator neck threads in order to verify that the new cap will fit your radiator. Have you done much more to your Locomobile project? Al

Keep up the good work. Al

I am considering using the pattern, (shown), to build up a few Locomobile Script radiator caps. If you need one, drop a note. Al

Boone, PM sent Al

I need a donor/parts car big series Nash in order to have enough correct pieces to restore, as original, a pile of parts I have. If you have or know of a parts car, please contact me. I would also be interested in left overs from a car that has been converted to a hot rod. Al

That has been one of my on-going searches. I will keep looking as I am confident that I will locate a loose and spare wheel to complete my set. Al

Hello Marc, How is your disc wheel building project going? You may want to check the difference between the bead height of an old style "high pressure" sized tire and the bead height of a modern truck type tire that is made to fit the rim you have mounted to the lathe face plate. You may have to groom the rim bead flange to properly fit an old style "high pressure" tire to your end product. Please let me know what you determine. Al

Hello mickthecat, I did not originate this question but have to thank you for the reference to antiquemotorsports. I can use one of these two man seats also. Al

MCCdarunt, I am curious as to a weight comparison between the original wood filled body as compared to the replaced steel structure. Al
