The same day as the flat tire the car turned 40K. I sure miss the car……..
My tire was only flat on the bottom.
Here is a shot from Jack Passey’s garage.
How about a French Archer? Very Rare…….
The parts car that blew up in City Heat made it back to a PAS member, who salvaged all possible parts. Some of them are in my garage today.
I agree with Paul,it seems the engine number does not match known 07 or 08 number series.
The only engine parts that are the same are valves and springs. And only for the President series. I have seen a Stude head on a 32 Pierce, but am not sure if ALL the coolent passages line up. The valve interchange only applies to 29 to 32. Some other Stude parts may fit, but only with modifications.
Thanks for the extra photos Oivind. Some day when I visit your country I would like to see your car in person. Ed
Oivind….. you should post a photo of your car as found!!!! You have earned the respect of all the members who know the story of you fine car….. Ed
I have had further contact with a fellow Pierce Arrow collector in India, and am hoping to get some photos and information about the cars for a future article in the PAS Arrow. Most of the cars (5 or 6) have history from new. They are all quite unusual so far. I’ll keep the members up to date with photos as they come available.
Hi Dave, in these economic conditions I would prefer my wealth to be in my bank account, not my head…….. Here is ANOTHER LOST PIERCE ARROW, never before seen in the PAS as far as I know… It’s another 1931 Series 42…..
OK….. here is a NEVER SEEN BEFORE OPEN PIERCE ARROW 1931 SERIES 42 TOURING! Car was displayed new in Kansas City then shipped to India, where it still is today. The factory color was “Brilliant Red”” monochrome. Ed”
OK….. Another posting twist, post photos of parts that failed, or restoration photos of rebuilt parts and components…..Stromberg updraft…… 29 – 32 Pierce 8
Bump back to the top….. Let’s not let the threads get too long, I’ll start another soon if required, POST MORE PLEASE!!!!!
Paul, very nice car……. Wish it was in my garage. Ed
Milton, Nice car…… I spoke to the person you bought it off a while back. It was in the mid west if I remember correctly. You gonna run it the way it is or restore it? Ed
