Jim,

There are some pictures of Tom Proffit’s Series 51 in the PAS Emporium that show the outside of the top.

You might also check with Scott Henningsen at Henningsen Machine in Salinas. His shop does upholstery work and he has P-As of that era. You can talk to him at Alturas next week.

You might also try Bill and Richard Lawton in Idaho.

Pat,

The PAS Vehicle Roster shows a 1930 with that engine number belonging to Richard Williams of PA.  He is not a current member, so he may have sold the car.  Click on the Vehicle Roster tab under Member Pages, enter the engine number and the car and his contact information will come up. If you come up with more current information on the car, please let me know so I can update our records.

Thanks,

Dave

Bill,

If you can’t find anything else, look up the bolt size on this chart:

You might also try Restoration Supply. I believe they carry the old style larger fuses.

Ken,

The following is from a 1933 Sales Brochure and lists the equipment in the Salon package.

Ken,

The serial numbers do not indicate whether the car is a Salon model. That was an option package.  It sounds like yours may be, but I am not knowledgeable enough on the thirties cars to know what trim changes were part of the Salon package.  I am on the road right now, but can check the Salesman’s Data Book when I get home and see what the package consisted of.  Someone like Karl Krouch may know.  Dave

Ken,

Bernie Weis’ materials only list one 1236 EDL known to exist out of an estimated 56 made. There are also three 836 EDLs known to exist.

Thanks Tony.  Van de Bundt lived in Ft. Lauderdale so he may be the one who sold it overseas. I’ll look at some of our European members and see if I can locate the car.  Dave

Thanks Jim.  His membership expired in 2007. So he hasn’t been in the PAS for a while.

Dave,

Arrow 1980-3 has an article about the 23rd Annual PAS Meet in Bernardsville, NJ, Aug. 6-10.  Good luck on solving the mystery.  – Dave

The last record we have of the car is that it is owned by a past member, (Alexander Schock) in Germany.  Records show Mapstone, Lawing and Schock.  I will send her the information.

Tom,

If I understand what you are looking for correctly, there is information on this in PASB 85-1, page 10.  It is available in the PASB Library. https://pierce-arrow.org/members/service-bulletin-library-new-order/

Roy,

The PAS Tune up Guide lists the coil as a Model 527 E. Nothing on the condenser type. I’m not sure if this will help you or not.

Have you confirmed that when the car dies that there is no spark by pulling a plug wire and placing it near the block to see if there is spark? If it is flooding, another thing to consider is a stuck/sunk carb float. Hopefully somebody else will come up with current part numbers you need and any other ideas.

One other thought, check the Parts and Services Directory here on the website under electrical.  -Dave

Thanks Brooks. I have forwarded the information you provided on the historian that is doing the research.  Dave

I currently have Hagerty. I switched to them because at the time (about 8 years ago), they were the only company I could find that would take my 2003 Morgan on a collector car policy without a low mileage limitation.

I have had one claim with Hagerty a few years ago. While being transported, one of the windwings on my P-A runabout fell off, hit the top of the door damaging the paint, bounced off the running board,  putting a dent in it, and then hit the floor of the trailer. Somewhere along the line it shattered.

Fortunately I had placed it on my policy before I had it shipped. I called Hagerty, expecting that because it was caused by the screws coming loose that they would deny coverage. The rep quickly said it was covered, go get an estimate to replace the windwing (Custom made) and to repair the damage.  I gave them the number I got, there was no argument on the amount and her final statement was “if you find that it is not enough contact us and we can adjust it”.  It did take a few weeks to get the check. Overall, I was very happy with the experience.

Dave
