John,
Thanks, I will let him know. Rick

You caught me just in time. It’s being shipped out today. I’ll snap a few photos before it goes out. Rick
After total disasembly and inspection. It was found that the front main bearing was going bad. The rear seemed fine but since it was all apart both were replaced.
The mechanic indicated that it was in such fantastic shape, the gears looked in better shape than the new tranmissions of today.
Based on the wear, or lack there of, everyone believes this Phaeton is a true 65k car. Way cool!
Does anyone know how long it took to produce a single car?
The casting date of the transmission is still in tact. 1/26/29. Depending on when they actually started produciton of the 29’s it was a super early car. Or, at least my transmisison is early.

The hole for the lighter is original and there. Right of the guage cluster and waiting for the correct lighter to be found and installed.
This head is hour glass shaped. I have seen a few of these in other restored cars.
Thank you for showing me your original. p.s. My parts catalog is on its way to me.
Here is the back of mine
Thanks. Yes, all the junction boxes are there and most of the Harness. Y n Z wants the junction boxes and what is left of the harness
Karl,
Thanks for clearing that up. It was a bit of a head scratcher. Hey Karl, do you still have that single pilot ray light for sale that you had at Hershey?
Thanks, Rick
Does anyone have a 28 or older car that has a hot head. Are they the same?
1Craig. Here is an ad that shows how it pops off.

Thank you for posting the photo. In the double pic one lighter has a silver ring. Is that after the head is pulled away from the base?
