The bellows should be the same as used on the Cord. Correct replacements have never been made and the NOS stock was used up several decades ago. Auburn - Cord Parts sells a modern replacement that will fit.

Agreed. What a great father - son photo.

I have a copy of the sales ledger of the Ontario, Canada dealer. The car sold in 1936 & 1937 were not generally common customers.

1942 Lincoln Continental Cabriolet.......Thoughts?
mike brady replied to lelshaddai's topic in General Discussion
Anyone who feel a '40 - '48 Lincoln is a good driving car has never driven a '41 Packard or '41 Cadillac. -
The Packard and the Sterns are both owned by the same collector

Woodward Dream Cruise & Flint's Back to the Bricks

stick with wide whites

I have two layers of the Home Depot silver covered insulation wrap under the carpet of a '70 cutlass convertible and it works great. I added it to reduce the heat transfer from the exhaust to the floor. I can't comment on it reducing noise

Just my personal experience. After driving a '41 Lincoln V12, a '41 Caddy and a '41 Packard, I found it hard to believe that all cars were built during the same decade, let alone the same year.

1936 Cord, not mine.
mike brady replied to Xander Wildeisen's topic in "Not Mine" Automobiles For Sale
I got the same great advice when I was 16. However, once you get all the bugs out, your next problem is many years later and you've forgotten half of what you have learned. The only way to stay on top is to have multiple cars. -
The phone rang... and then the next car adventure starts

Ed, Are the tires double sided white......or does it just look like it in the photo. Also, any idea of the date of the photo ? -
I can't think of an automobile that has so much written about that is incorrect. in this case the wheelbase of the phaeton and convertible coupe did not change from 1936 to 1937.

Did you check Straight Eight ?

Period images to relieve some of the stress
mike brady replied to Walt G's topic in Period Photos - Pre WWII
A copy of this car is being built out of a sedan. When I saw it last, about 10 years ago, it was about 60 % complete. I don't know if it was ever finished. -
Perhaps you can find your application here http://www.turnswitch.com/speakers.htm

Fresh Water pump rebuild current costs '27 Chry.
mike brady replied to Flivverking's topic in General Discussion
I agree with Ed. The parts alone to rebuild my 1936 Cord water pump were almost $800 (my Canadian currency), which I gladly paid. I think you did well and I'm glad that you are pleased. -

Bay St., Toronto, Ontario, Canada. That is the City Hall (at that time) in the background. -
Hopefully you got the carburetor as well.

mike brady replied to West Peterson's topic in Parts Wanted
Pete, I've seen rear windows on cabriolet's with and without beveled glass. -
1936-37 Cord phaeton. Back top window Wanted
mike brady replied to West Peterson's topic in Parts Wanted
Sorry.......I forgot to mention that the rectangular rear windows on any Cord are not considered correct. -
1936-37 Cord phaeton. Back top window Wanted
mike brady replied to West Peterson's topic in Parts Wanted
Yes, you will find photos showing different rear windows. However, if you don't also know the serial number, the photos alone will not determine if a particular car is considered early or late. I have photos of my Cord (2288H) taken ~ 1939, which show the small window and one piece top (without the removable back curtain). A friend owns 2300H which was has won primary and senior at Auburn. It is also considered early and has the small rear window. I don't know what serial number is considered the end of the early run, but I can find out if your interested. There are other early/late features that we might see in a photo. You can send me a photo in a PM, if you like. I also have a correct small window frame that is available.
