This is the radiator I was after. I also have the Boyce MotoMeter on my desk. Makes a great paperweight. Now I am going to go ice up my shoulders!
FYI--- I set the MotoMeter on my 23 Buick just for the photos
One of the three I had to move to get to the American LaFrance radiator. Big Pierce probably? Since someone marked it with a paint pen. Lower outlet missing.
I have an early American LaFrance radiator in my storage and was asked for pictures. I had to move three others to get to it. All are BIG car-- VERY heavy! Any ideas? Yes, I know I should have measured them.
Number stamped on plate screwed to the differential is 29924. Has external contracting brakes- Appears to be same as one that is on a 24 Packard but axles shafts and brakes are not interchangeable. We have a broken set of gears and are trying to replace the differential.
NO one has found them! The clutch release bearing, release arm and shaft. YES, the shaft that runs through the pedals, bellhousing and bearing carrier. NO, I did not take the car apart! Owner's helper took it apart. He is no longer with us.
Yes, not much going on. I am trying to help an old friend's grandson. The cars is more than an hour away from me. He and his grandson were working on the car (fantastic condition) but my friend had been battling cancer and it came back with a vengeance and he passed away. Now the grandson is trying to finish what they had started. I know there are hoses going inside under the dash. I suspect these are heater controls. It has been more than 40 years since I worked on one of these cars.
Careful! If you put an electric pump on your vacuum pump system, PLEASE use a push button and not a toggle switch! The push button will allow you to put enough fuel into the vacuum pump tank so you can start the engine. Push button, count to five and release. I dont want to hear about any fires because the electric pump overfilled the vacuum pump and gas went all over the engine!
