1935Packard Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Great to know you're doing these cars, Restorer32. Curious how the restoration of an electric compares to a comparable gas car. (I'd guess it's less expensive, as it's simpler and you presumably put in modern batteries, but I don't know.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnworden1 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Nice work Restorer32. Attached pic of the 1915 Milburn we restored using running boards from you. John 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Restoring a 1915 Milburn (6th Milburn built and earliest known survivor) was interesting to say the least. Consider the fact that nothing was welded in the construction of these early cars at least to give some idea of issues to overcome. Less expensive? Not necessarily. Simpler? Maybe. Gorgeous? Yes especially the interiors with nickel plated bright work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
