[rubenyayu]

Hi everybody my name is Ruben and im from Mallorca - Spain. I just get a pontiac that the papers sais is from 1928 but all the pictures that i see looks like from 1933. Is more or less dificult to get info in europe, and in spain imposible. I entry in google unknown and i see you forum.

 

I show you a picture from the car and a video where i run the engine. the car was 40 years in a garage stoped.

Thanks again

 

Best regards

Definitely a 33. And that two-door Victoria body style is very rare.

Thanks, and the engine looks also 33? i see the carburator in down position

I don't believe that is a Pontiac engine. A 1933 Pontiac should have 8 cylinders. Welcome to the forum!

Ruben,

Your car is a 1934 Pontiac, not 1933. The hood side trim is 1934 only.

Bloo is correct; a 1934 Pontiac should have a straight 8 engine.

 

You will need to identify that engine before you can order any parts; it does not look like a Pontiac 6 cylinder.

I can't think of many flathead sixes that have both a removable water jacket plate and a low mounted distributor. One that comes to mind as a possibility is the Hupmobile Century Six.

looks like mine that engine Bloo. thanks for the info i was finding some books from pontiacs engines and now i will change on Hupmobile Century Six. 

 

Here there is more pictures from it.

 

Another question, where i can find the "chasis number" i see the engine number on the cilinder section but the car not.

The chassis number is stamped onto the top of the left front frame rail, just rearward of the front axle.

There should also be an aluminum frame number plate riveted to the outboard side of the left frame rail in that same area.

 

This picture shows the aluminum plate on my 1933 Pontiac frame.
