edinmass Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 (edited) It’s not often we get small cars through the shop. Ed’s rule #1, Never, ever work on something that is commonplace or mundane. Seldom, very seldom, I get involved with a run of the mill car. In this case, the 95 year old owner needed help, and I was more than happy to assist. Here is a photo of Phil, keeping me from driving a product from the Rouge. It had a Columbia two speed, and while a bit long in the tooth, went well considering. It ran out of steam at 68 mph, but it was fun, and handled well compared to the three ton monsters I’m use to dealing with. Phil enjoyed it immensely.......as you can see. The 1929 Stearns auto show car is in the background. Edited November 30, 2020 by edinmass (see edit history) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadillac Fan Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Love it! My uncle had a 3 window coupe. He would let my brother and I play in it when we were 6-8 years old. Probably the start of my love of 1930s cars. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
