I’m finishing the restoration of my 1909 Model 24T and notice some numbers stamped into the rear axle. My car serial # is 20059 but on the rear axle tubes there is a number 718262 stamped on each side – one with RH and the other with LH on each tube. Does anyone know what these numbers relate to ??
I’m also looking for the carb. for this car…..any leads are appreciated.

My best guess is it is the casting part number. All Pierce factory part numbers start with the number 7 as far as I know. How about posting a few photos of your car here, as we all like to see new projects as the members are working on them. Ed
Usual practice was to put the auto’s number on major parts(carb
included).They didn’t produce casting part numbers in 1909.Your
serial# looks authentic.The letters E,EE,S,SS appeared after the
the 5 numbers. Or like yours,no letters followed it.20,000 was the
lowest number and 20,099 was the highest in that series.103 built
in total.Does your rear end match the other 24T survivors? Does your
car’s serial number appear on numerous parts? Good Luck!

I’ve tried 2x to upload pictures…but no luck ???
Richard,
Make SURE that the picture file you are trying to upload does not have blank spaces in the file name…it won’t work.
