  1. If I knew where it was and knew it was for sale........I would own it
  2. Randy, I think you will find quite the opposite at Auburn. Every ACD car which is "new" attracts quite a bit of attention. A few years ago a club president brought a RWD conversion quite frequently. Ed is right, Auburn is a great place to market the Cord .........then bring the Auburn the next year because you will be hooked.
  3. I would heat all the grease out and submerge them in Evaporust for a few days......the pistons should then press out easily.
  4. My wife has a horse named Auburn and when it leaks it really leaks !
  5. I think a display / booth at Hershey might be a great marketing idea and would create a lot of attention.
  6. Sorry to disappoint you but it did. There was also one phaeton built with sidemounts.
  7. Early 810 Cord's used Lockheed brakes. Try calling Auburn Cord Parts in Kansas to see if they have any. Mike
  8. Apparently the owner has never seen a real Auburn or Cord painted Cigarette Creme
  9. Sorry I didn't get a chance to say Hi to Ed. It was interesting to contrast the subtle differences between the consecutive numbered J's above. Ed's photo above demonstrates that colour is everything.
  10. Part of a vacuum ash tray. The part shown is attached to a ash can by a hose.
  11. It is important to note that Don was the driving force in the creation of the Meadowbrook Concours.
  12. Auburn is correct, the pan is not dented.
  13. The collection was dispersed long ago. Mr Fitterling kept many of his Duesenbergs in the ACD museum, for many years.
  14. I cannot seem to get the 2" lower radiator hose on my Cord tight enough, to stop seeping, with the correct clamps. The fittings on both the water pump and radiator are smooth (not pitted) and painted. I would rather not use stainless gear clamps, if I can avoid to. The hose is a new piece of Gates Green Stripe. I would appreciate any suggestions which would stop the seepage. Thanks
  15. The metal side mount covers might be the most desirable part of the car.
  16. Matt, It's time to get a factory shop manual for you and the car.
  17. I'm with Tom. I drive my 70 Cutlass convert (automatic & air) everywhere in the summer. If it were a 4 speed or didn't have air it would spend more time in the garage.
  18. Joe, A 1158 bulb, which is common in 6 volt systems does not have offset pins but does have two different filaments for brake and running lights, so testing should be done when connecting the pigtails to the harness
  19. I've driven the black cabriolet and while it is worn, it is a great driving, no stories car.
  20. Including a freshly rebuilt CGO4804A generator which has one broken mounting leg, along with other supercharged Cord parts. Located intermittently at CE 33 - 34 or text me at 647-528-5704
