Captain Harley Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 On 10/17/2020 at 1:07 PM, John_Mereness said: This is the first time I have seen a Model-A Ford "from back in the day" with a side mount and a rear spare too. I've seen more then a couple of restored A's set up like this. I think it is kind'a goofy looking. The only other time I've seen a set-up like this was a picture of a big late teens, early 20's speedster type car. The car was sitting in a ditch, it must have run off the road, and had twin side mounts and double rear spares! I believe the wheels were wooden spoke with de-mountable rims. I know tire rubber wasn't that good of quality back then. So the owner of the car I guess did not like the idea of splitting rims/changing tubes beside the road when he/she had a flat. Capt.

1937hd45 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 ^^^^^ Thanks for pointing out the side mount, I overlooked it. The rear spare is a good thing to push on as the young lady is demonstrating, use your legs, the heals give good traction on dirt. Bobb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casper Friederich Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 (edited) Strange looking late model Ford phaeton, probably European coachbuilt. Front end as 1937 US Ford, but suicide front door. Doors are also smaller than normal as they doesn't reach down to the running boards. Notice also whitewall tires! Standing in car is Éduard Daladier, Prime Minister in France at the outbreak of WWII.

jeff_a Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) The shot of the Bugatti is the only one of both a skier and a power-sliding race car I've ever seen. I know Romania had a GP race...did Norway ever have a Grand Prix? Wherever this is - not a lot of creature comforts in the Type 35 Bugatti!

Bob Its on page 152 in Fred Roe's book, credited to Willoughby, "apparently a one-off body, this car with unique moulding treatment has never been traced. Variations of this moulding arrangement appear on several Willoughby bodies on Packards and Pierce-Arrows.". It has the unusual molding that flies off from around the fender and wraps up around the rear of the body. Notes also that: " Hollywood actor Frank Morgan was photographed with the car for tire company endorsements." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
