HI all,
The assembly is coming along nicely. Unfortunately, some of the parts lost their tage so we don’t know what they are and where exactly they go. Will all your Pierce arrow wonders please help me to identify, how many there should be and where they go. If you have photos of them installed that would be phenomenal.
1. ONe is a luggage wrack support bar. We have no idea how to install the two piece luggage rack and or how the S support bars are installed as well.
The other two pieces are a complete mystery.
thanks, Rick

Your second individual piece picture appears to be the support bracket for the top, if the “dark” end is threads, fits inside the car and the threaded piece is what the bottom of the top irons attach to and pivot around. If that’s what it is, it only needed chrome on the last little piece before the threads, the rest is hidden under upholstery. You should have two of them.
I can’t help you on the luggage rack, on my phaeton I moved it close in to the back of the body, inside the rear bumper, so my landau bars are not in original configuration.
One piece of advice, you appear to have the chrome spread out on a piece of plywood, or possibly a piece of cardboard.
Either WILL scratch the chrome. You need soft cloths or towels under the pieces to keep them from getting scratched.
Chrome is “perfect” when it is unwrapped, and goes downhill from there….
Thanks Dave. Looks like I am in need of another top support bracket. Any help, ANYONE?
Can you post another view of the first picture? There’s a socket that goes in the curve, top of the body at rear, for the top rests. This would screw inside the body with a plate as shown, and at right angle would be a large threaded tube. The rod to which the top rest attaches screws into this threaded tube.
If the “bottom” part of the first pictured item is a threaded tube, then it’s that piece, and again, there should be two of them, mirror images.
oops, maybe not mirror images, the rods that screw into them compensate for the angle…..wish we had an “edit”” option for posts instead of just a “”delete””…”
I tried to enlarge these photos so as to get a better look but no luck.Question: Do you have a 1929 Series 133-143 parts book? There are some illustrations in it.
