  1. Looking closer, it looks like it is powered by a two cylinder compound engine. This is the stuff I dream of. Dandy Dave!
  2. Look like a White to me. Aaaahhh yes. Jay Leno has one. An 07 steamer. Dandy Dave! Jay Leno's Garage - Photos - www.jaylenosgarage.com
  3. The new exhaust may be your problem. When it was installed were you sure that all the packing was out of the pipes and muffler? Had this problem with someones tin lizzy once. Dandy Dave!
  4. May you have many enjoyable miles of pleasure with her, and many carefree hours of showing her. :cool: Dandy Dave!
  5. I believe you are right on the Rover. I knew it was from across the pond, but could not place it. 1970 Rover 3500S Images. Photo: 70_Rover_3500S_DV-05_PVGP-01.jpg The convertible I believe is a Ford now that I look. Similer to a 72 LTD. The truck is definitly a Chevy. It is written right across the front. Dandy Dave!
  6. Save your self a lot of trouble, run Baker rims....No spreader tool needed. Dandy Dave!
  7. First, looks like a 1970's Volvo. Second I think is a 69 Pontiac Bonneville, Third is a 1958 Chevy pickup. I agree on the 57 Dodge. Dandy Dave!
  8. Glad he came back in A1 shape. Thanks for serving. :cool: Dandy Dave!
  9. Suffern Sucatash... :eek: I wouldn't let that guy change the air in my tires. Some days chicken, Some days feathers. Dandy Dave!
  10. I thought it was first an option in 1918, and then standard equipment in 1922 on the "T". Dandy Dave!
  11. I agree. They look like the rear of the Plymouth Fury we had when I was a young un. Dandy Dave!
  12. Wow. I agree, these cars should be preserved as is. Dandy Dave!
  13. My Grandfather had one just like it back in the 30's, and drove it through the war years. My uncles ended up building a doddle bug out of it in the 1950's and used it on a small family farm. Neat to fine one untouched for so many years. Thanks for sharing. Dandy Dave!
  14. And then there is those big truck engines. The 279, 317, and 332. The 279 was intoduced in 1952 and used in the Ford heavy duty line of trucks. Dandy Dave!
  15. After some searching, I believe they may be mid 20's Maxwell. Dandy Dave!
  16. As we said, it is a steel aftermarket replacement nut. Dandy Dave!
  17. I've been under my share of hoods, Packards, Rolls, Caddies, Fords, Dodges, and Chevys just to name the common stuff. It is in my opinion that one of the finest manufactured automobiles I have ever worked on is a Pierce. A well engineered and designed automobile. If I had only one to chose, this would be it. Dandy Dave!
  18. Now that you mention it, I had a few of the pot metal ones myself. Thanks for the extra info. Dandy Dave!
  19. They do not look teens Buick to me, Maybe Studebaker? The shape looks right, not sure on the light mounting. Dandy Dave!

  21. Graham Brothers trucks were built from 1921-1929, and used The Dodge chassies and components. Your truck is too new to be a Graham. Dandy Dave!
  22. Sounds like he lacked a rim spreader. In the old days, the fellows would time how long it took to fix a flat and be proud of a quick fix. 4 hours would be an embarasment. .... Dandy Dave!
  23. I agree, Model A Ford with an after market fan. Good catch on that packing nut. The originals were brass. The original fan was only two blades, and resembled an airplane prop. They were prone to cracking near the hub, and many were replaced. Also, the 4 bladed version moved a little more air. Dandy Dave!
  24. I looked though my "Golden age of Buick" book yesterday, And one of the first ads is for a Buick motor with the valve train from underneath. Adverised as "A motor that you will have success with." Similar but with some differences. The later engines have the valve train on the top. I also looked at some of the early farm tractor engines that had this basic design, but the ones I could think of all have solid flywheels. I Also thought it may be up side down. Dandy Dave!
  25. On second thought, maybe not IHC High Wheeler. They have the valve train above, and a solid flywheel. Dandy Dave!
