Fossil Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I've noticed those oil cans on the firewall before. Was there something that needed regular oiling? Water pump? Did the updraft carburetors on these work well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarNucopia Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 This isn’t a 60 series car. I’m not sure how to tell the difference between a 40 and a 50, but the golf door on a 1930 64C is square. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the updraft carburetors on these work well? I've wondered about that, too. The lubrication schedule on old cars is pretty extensive, but it's not like you'd need to lube anything every few miles. Aftermarket? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarNucopia Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Mine has the same oil can, so I think it was an original equipment. The reference manual has a list of things that need to be lubricated with engine oil every 500 miles, which I presume is what it’s for. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renascence Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 This is a 40 series car. They did not make a 50 series couple. The 50 and 60 series did use the same engine but on a shorter wheel base. Nice car but missing a few items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have one on my 1930 Ford as well as my 1913 Model T. I added them. The only cars I have seen them on which appear stock are some pre-1932 cars. My friend has a 1912 Hudson which has a double bracket holding two oil cans......must need lots of lube! As far as updraft carbs, my only experience is with Fords and mine work great.

B Jake Moran Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Wow, still available even with a price reduction 1 year 4 months after trying to sell. Other lesser cars go for higher prices and find new owners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif in Calif Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 When did Buick begin to supply oil to the rockers? There was a 1917 model posted recently where the valve train didn't even have a cover (many WWI aircraft were similar) and I care for a 1925 Chevy that requires the rockers to be oiled before each use.
