ron hausmann Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Gavin, Kissel manufactured some really beautiful production speedsters, as did Daniels, Stutz, and Marmon. Google "Kissel Speedster" and you'll get a lot of pics. Below is a picture of what is said to be a custom built 1918 period Kissel Speedster. I cannot determine if it is actually based on a Kissel, but its neat! Ron Hausmann P.E. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinneyhill Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 I was just idly flicking through Dyke's 1930 and came across Instruction No. 81. It is 12 pp. and here are the first three for your delectation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsfarms Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 (edited) I had not been through a Dykes of 1930. That looks like some sound professional instructions. I also noticed on the American-LaFrance speedster shown by genebe above, he must have tried a couple of different gearing changes as the drive sprockets are different sized in each picture. If genebe checks here, how about a comment about the drive sprockets? Al Edited February 4, 2021 by alsfarms spelling (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AURktman Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 For the Model T based speedsters, has anyone here built the kit available from Rootleib? I’ve thought about building one of those as my initial foray into prewar cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
