How about a model 14 buick! Yes, this is a picture of a model 14, or 14B (The lightest of either of the two cylinder cars. The heavier of the two cylinder cars would be the Model F or it roadster counterpart the model G). Certainly, both the Model F, and the Model 14 appear to have shared the same cowl/firewall, but that's about it. The Model 14 was a much smaller car, also with smaller wheels. The 14 had no counterpart touring., but could have had a mother-in-law seat which the car in question appears to have. regards; Jerry Janson

How about a Marmon model 68. The smaller straight eight for 1929. While the Stutz also has horizontal hood louvers, those on the Marmon sit higher and closer to the hinge that holds the side of the hood to the top. Also, and while I'm not sure about all Stutz of this era. the Stutz should sport Ryan headlights with the unique protruding lens. The lights here are definitly acorn shaped with flat lenses.. Alas, there is no Rah on the radiator, lol, did I spell that right? While speaking of the radiator, I believe the peak, or point,(a definite Marmon trait), on top of the radiator crown can be seen on this car. Regards; jerry janson

Hey Dave; regards to the rough idle;Things to check before you look at jet sizes. Your carb, I believe it is a UUR2, could be dirty with sediment. Also check the low speed adjustment. Check for a leaky carb gasket, and finally check for leaky intake manifold garkets. regards; oldiron

For sale or trade; Pierce Delco ignition switch. patented Aug 8 '16....... On the face are two switch levers. One on each side of the Yale ign lock. The right side lever operates the different positions of the head and rear lights, while the left side lever works either just the right side ignition, the left side ignition, or both at once. On top of the face is a push/pull type switch. The switch is in mint condition with all original levers on the front, and terminal hardware on the back. It is a dash mounted switch.

The item on the extreme right is a reflector for a lamp. The metal protuberance on the back is nothing more than it's mounting bracket. It is held in place behind the kerosene wick or carbide burner of a lamp, and it does it's job by reflecting light. The coating on it is not chrome, but rather the same silver coating used on mirrors. regards; jerry janson

Larry; it appears that you have a picuture of an early Radip bus. Perhaps 1903 to 1906 era. regards; jerry janson

1913 Overland rear end grease recomendation
oldiron replied to laheyth's topic in HCCA General Discussion
laheyth; your Overland rearend has felt seals at the outer-ends of the axles. These seals if in good condition will do their intended job. I have had no problem using a rear end gear oil such as Chevron's Delo SAE 85w-140, or other similar products. I am currently running this gear oil in a 1913 Cadillac. It works fine. regards; jerry janson -
1913 Overland rear end grease recomendation
oldiron replied to laheyth's topic in HCCA General Discussion
laheyth; Grease ? not gear oil ? Not sure of your EP2 designation, what is it? Most manufactures will have an application chart or guide which will define the specifications and the operating ranges of the particular oil that you will need. Check Restoration Supply, (advertising in the Horseless Carriage Gazette). They inventory a complete line of lubricants, for the brass age cars, including gear oils for both transmissions, and rearends. regards; jerry janson -
29pierce; try Olson's Gaskets. They advertise in Hemmings. You might even find them online. They inventory many NOS items, as well as manufacture replacement gaskets. (Incidentally, try the Pierce Arrow Society if you already haven't. They list vendors who make various items for their cars, and they list material suppliers as well.). regards; jerry janson

Joe; your hubcap appears to be for a P.A. of the mid to late twenties; i.e. the model 34 and model 36. (Last of the "T"head Pierces). regards; jerry janson

Bill; If the tank is as bad as you say, have a new one fabricated. In the services section of Hemmings, you can find vendors who do that. On the other hand, and at the very least, cut out the bottom of the existing tank, and weld a new bottom in. (Fiberglassing the old bottom is not a solution. It will further exascerbate your current situation.). regards; Jerry Janson

Need Help ID Early Auto Parts With car They Fit!
oldiron replied to oldwhizzer's topic in What is it?
oldwhizzer; your step-plate is a nice example of marine hardware from the famed "Wilcox & Crittendon" Co. out of Connecticut. The W over the C, trademark, is very recognizable. regards; oldiron -
Looks like an AUTOCAR, but then a lot of similarities exist from one to another. regards; jerry janson

Dave; I have a draw full of old brushes.(Some for starters, other for generators, yet others for ???). Some pressed graphite, others a type of copper alloy. Some with one wire, some with two braided copper wires. Some are square, others rectangular, yet others that are half round. I don't know what they are all for. Post some dimensions and descriptions, and I'll check them out. Regards; Jerry Janson

Jim; Olcar Bearings or South Shore Bearing Distributors should be able to help you. They're both advertising in Hemmings. You will find that your bearing number should interchange with a Timken number if you have access to a catalogue. That will also make it easier to find your bearing. regards; Jerry Janson

One of the cars it could fit would be mid-teens Chevroletes; either Amesbury or Royal Mail models. These cars had as alternates, either the Simms mag, or Auto-lite generators. (I had an early '15 Royal Mail with the Auto-lite configuration, while others had the Simms.). regards; Jerry Janson
