Me too. Learned the hard way
The motors you want are very rare. I had one of the few original pairs that came with my 31. They were Trico motors, decorated with a lot of filigree, decoration, etc. Messed with them for years, plating, rebuilds, finally left the Model A repo chrome plated ones that came with the car, that I think are still available, bolt right in, etc. Moreover, most cars have these Model A wipers installed, most owners won’t admit it or don’t know that’s what they are. I sold the unassembled original pair, plated for $300. Didn’t want to assemble them, ’cause I was pretty sure they were not going to work.
Richard: It was an older inexpensive pocket watch with the little doojig attached.
The one with the red badge is definitely a phony. I got stuck with one of those 50 years ago
Jack Doherty live in Buffalo before he moved out West. I knew Jack, he had been a policeman for the city of Buffalo. He was a good friend of Bob Sands. Contact Bob, he probably has more info on the car
Thanks. Looks like I am paid through 2020.
I thought Bob Sands had some also
I have many. Send dimensions. I will try to help
Ernie and Clara spent a week with Claire and I in Florida a few years ago. We were motoring down Ocean boulevard in Palm Beach when a monsoon like rain came upon us. The hard boot in our ’76 Eldorado was well fastened, and we all but drowned. Ernie laughed about that every time we met. He was a nice man. We will miss him.
Bill Gasich is a relatively young man,(compared to many of us). I would be surprised if he were still not a member of the PAS
Bob: Please save me a can. Thank you
Bob, I have owned my car 51 years. I have always placed oil in the vacuum thingy on the firewall, and it seemed to find the brake system and work. Has anyone else done it this way? I don’t think I have done it more than three times over the years
As of the last publication of the CCCA board meeting that I read, within the past few months, the membership in the CCCA was down to 857 members. The passing of older members, and the influx of more modern cars, rods, etc. do not bode well for many old car clubs. Indeed, when I was president of the PAS, membership was around 1100. We too have dropped significantly below that figure also since that time period. I have no resolution for this situation, except to wait and see.
Was this Jim Viara’s car?
I miss you David. I wish you well
Sorry, I do not
Still a member after 55 years. No more signs, the company that did them won’t do them anymore. Anybody know if Ernie Follis has anymore? I don’t think so.
Duane, was this car your old car?
Auction dates are September 20 and 21
Terry Fitch told me today the hotel told him only 60 rooms were reserved, I don’t believe that is correct?
