Marty Roth Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 On 10/31/2020 at 3:56 PM, Mark Huston said: The “round thing” on the running board is a period accessory light. They are listed as “safety lights “ in the Western Auto catalog for 1929. They come on with the headlights and give the same side visibility as side marker lights on a modern car. One side is green and the other is red. The same as the jewels in the side of the headlights.

Keep the red buoys to your right (green to your left) when coming into port (or up river) to make sure you are in the safest (usually the deepest) channel.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure this is a car in the resto stage, But I would love to have a finished running chassis as a display piece. I like looking at the mechanicals and engineering as much as the body work.

It does not have the correct motor for some judged event. I bought it from a Hollywood broker and he got it from a movie studio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Reed Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Drove out to the AACA Museum in my '64 Cadillac before they are forced to close again due to gov. Wolf's covid restrictions. Not sure why museums like this have to be closed. I counted four other visitors in the museum the two hours I was there on a Friday afternoon. I could drive up the road to Home Depot and encounter 100 people under one roof, but they can remain open. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't show in this photo but she was holding a Wendell Willkie for President Handkerchief during the judging. Wes in VT. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
