JFranklin Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 This is my barn find. I have it painted now and the plating is about back. I'll post a photo of it when it starts looking like a car again. The old picture was given to me by the original family showing it as a new car.

Hupp36 Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 The year and model is 1924 Model 64 Country Club America. Sleve valve engine. For every car that had a sleve valve engine, Mr Knight received $100 for his patent.Back in them days that was a lot of money. These engines were known to go 60,000 miles before a rebuild. Just thought a little info may help. I have a 24 roadster pickup. Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFranklin Posted February 25, 2010 Author Share Posted February 25, 2010 An update of my slow progress on my barn-find Willys Knight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hupp36 Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Unless I counted wrong, from your first post until now, it has been 15 months. I would say that you are progressing rather well. As my mother would say " the proof is in the pudding". It looks great. Since my last post on this sight I have acquired a 1923 Willys Knight 3 dr sedan. It was in like new condition when I bought it. It took 6 years to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
