It depends on two things. If the upholstery is done and my work calendar. I have to take off time at least 2 months in advance. I have come to learn to never trust a time estimate given by any vendor. lolo

If not this year definitely next.

Dave thanks for the help. The photo is the latest pic of the 29s engine and grille. Only a few more pieces to assemble, then back to the body shop for some tiny paint fixes then off to the upholstery shop. It is looking phenominal

I would love to have the 30 too. Yes, my wallet is delusional. I need to finish this one. The upholstery is going to cause a financial emergency room visit. lolol

Dave,

It must be something with my phone. I rebooted my laptop. All photos worked except the ones that came from my phone recently. ????

Charlie C’s car. It is a 1929 but listed as a 143 instead of a 133/125

1929 This car was sold by Hyman too. I personally saw it up for auction at Hershey, a few months before it came online under Hyman.

Dave,

Thanks. I learned a while back that I could only load one photo at a time. It has always worked well up to a few months ago. I have the same phone and computers. For some reason, the photos will not upload.

I will try your suggestion. Thank you so much. Rick

Peter,

Funny you made a comment on keeping the car clean. I was just looking at the chrome wires on mine. It occurred to me that it is going to suck to keep them shiny clean. lolol

Curious question. Were the colors of the 29, the original colors? It would be fun to have that car next to mine.

I find it troubling that most of the bidders have a history with this seller. 10 to 75% on previous auctions. BEWARE BEFORE BIDDING!!!

Craig and Geg,

Thanks. I will forward your info to the mechanic. The car did not sit idling. It was up and down etc… However, the wheels have yet to hit the road. The hill climb and load on the car makes sense.

The carb is tuned to perfection. The car sounds amazing

Craig,

They had it running for over 30 minutes. They even ran it through the gears. (car jacked off the floor). It runs as smooth as butter.

Good to know. I will forward this info to him. Rick

You’re the best Thanks tons Karl! Rick

Karl,

I found a man who custom made the shutterstat/bellows for me, with the connecting rod. I do have one question.

The guy indicated that a little antifreeze should be added to the cavity that it is inserted to.

where the arm/rod goes through the radiator is an open hole. There is no way to ad antifreeze without it leaking out. Is there another cavity that I am missing that needs or can hold fluid/antifreeze.

Thanks, Rick
