Here’s a picture of our car coming through one of our local Redwoods.

Charles,

It is possible that the photos are too large. I usually resize mine to 800×600 pixels before uploading. If you have any kind of photo software it should have a resize function. If you don’t, a free download program is called FastStone Image Viewer. It is an image viewing and sorting program, but also has some basic editing functions. Resize is under the “Edit” tab. I hope this helps you, it would be great to see your car.

My bumpers are also nickel plated.

It is strange what people can do to electrical systems.

Chester,

My ’28 Series 36 has Nickel plated trim. Some of it looked pretty dull when I bought the car, but after several polishings, it looks very good. I tried several different brands of metal polish and ended up using Mothers Aluminum Polish.

Did you resolve your ignition switch problem?

Chester,

When I get home Monday I’ll see if I can get a decent picture of the back of my switch panel.

You clicked on the download button on the left? It worked OK for me. Give me an e-mail address and I can e-mail it to you.

If you get a chance more info on the car (body style etc) and a picture or two would be nice. Inquiring minds want to know. I have a ’28 Series 36, 7 pass touring.

Chester,

Welcome to the PAS.

Go to the “Library” tab on the left, enter 1928 and Series 36 and a list of publications for your car will come up. There is a downloadable Series 36 Owners Manual that has the wiring diagram.

It looks to me that the tab got broken off of the left switch and someone rigged up an alternate switch. The left switch should turn on the left ignition only, the center switch both sides and the right switch the right ignition.

Looking at the current Cal Fire maps, it appears that Rohnert Park is not in a direct fire area. There is one fire a few miles to the east that could become a factor depending on weather. It most likely has impacted one of our tour routes. Most of the fires are less than 5 percent contained and winds are supposed to increase today so at this point nothing is certain.

Hi Randy,

At this point it is probably too early to assess the fires’ impact on next year’s meet. I believe the DoubleTree is not in a direct fire area. Some of the destinations are in or very near some of the fires and may be impacted. There are several PAS members in the area, but I don’t know their status.

One if the hotels we had considered, a Hilton, burned to the ground. I am planning on being in the area next week. If that occurs, I will try to at least get a feel for the impact on the meet. Right now access to the area is pretty restricted. -Dave

My 1928 Series 36 has a Yale and Towne key.

Blaine, I have had that issue also. It seems like downsizing the photos to 1200 pixels or less on the long side cures the problem.

Dave- It was really great and very much enjoyed, other than it ended way to soon.

Ed,

Being the owner of a ’28 Series 36 I would like to see a picture of it. Sorry I don’t have room for another.

You can also go to the roster page for Paul’s e-mail address.

Paul Morris is the webmaster. He would probably be the one to ask. Go to the contact PAS tab on the home page to reach him.
