Built from Dec 13 1929 to May 22 1930 designated "1930 series" (models). Built from July 1 1930 to June 30 1931 designated 1931 series Built from July 1 1931 to Sept 15 1931 designated 1932 series Are you or someone you know looking at buying one? Be aware they also made the New Eight (DG) in the early 30s. DC-8 will have a distinct art deco feel on the interior components. If you are thinking of purchasing, photos and dash FEDCO plate will help further with a positive I.D. If you're betting someone we get have of the proceeds if you win. If you lose you're on your own.

Mark Gregush Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 I got my info from "Motor's Handbook of Specifications Interchangeable Parts Service Instructions". My RADCO Carburetor and Motor Tune-Up Manual only goes to 1930 so only lists the DC8 for that year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
