Bob was a COOL Buffalo Dude, although he might have taken minor offense at being called a Dude.

I was pleased and lucky to know him, and to come to understand that he was a REAL BUFFALO GENTLEMAN!

God Bless His Buffalo-Built, Pierce-Arrow Soul!

RIP, Bob!

John,

BTW, John Cislak is THE source for most Pierce Arrow parts that you may need.

Additionally, you can check the PAS Vehicle Roster to find members who own the Same Year and Model as your car.   Then, contact them about your needed Spare Parts.

Many of we PAS people are Parts Hoarders!

I know that I AM!

John,

Did you check out the other side to see how it is assembled?

Does it have the parts that you seem to be missing from the other side?

Rebuilding a Pierce Arrow is a daunting process and a supreme challenge at times.

I had to do that with my “quite complete and intact” 1925 Series 80, which has been in my Family since 1928.

No matter which mechanicals I started to explore, I usually found some piece, or part, that either needed adjustment or replacement.

My best advice is that you Hang Tough and Keep Working On It, and before you know it, you will have a Beautifully Functioning Pierce Arrow.

BTW, AFTER taking the time to watch that Outstanding Firestone and Pennzoil advertisement, I Get It.

[Author nameAuthor names are only available to PAS members.]

Why was it predictable that Ab Jenkins “poured Pennzoil and ran Firestones”?

Are those the PAMCC, original & factory-approved brands?

Or, were They Just, The BEST?

I just bought Jenkin’s (?) book, so I may soon discover those details.

Bill,

WOWIE, Thanks for the Link!

In the “Chase Scenes” those Guys were sure Sliding the various 1920s cars around on the DIRT ROADS, I assume around Hollywood.

I never even considered that someone could, or would do that with a 20’s automobile.

It is very Cool film clip.

Thanks for bringing it to attention.

Best regards,

Peter

PS: Keep those Pierce-Arrows Rolling, rather than sliding them sideways!

Gents,

I am Glad that everyone is Happy with The Optima 6-V Deal.

Jim @ Optima Batteries has been Very Good to The Pierce Arrow members.

I run 2-Optima 6-V batteries in my Series 80, and although it is an over-kill, they always Do The Job!

We can just hope that Jim & Optima allows this Deal in the coming years.

Thank You, Jim & Optima!

Peter

I would be happy as a clam at high tide to own that Magnificent Green Monster.

Perhaps, I need to sign-up to bid, although being a Series 80 Gent, you all will laugh at my pretension to “move up” in the Pierce-Arrow ranks.

I never even consider purchasing such an amazing Pierce-Arrow with that outstanding interior.

Finally, I believe that this is a case of; “if you have to ask the price, then you really cannot afford it!”

I will be watching!

[Author nameAuthor names are only available to PAS members.]

Steve,

Will Do!

Hello Gents & Ladies,

I purchased that sign about 1-week ago.

I have yet to receive it, but then again, for some reason, they will not send it to me until I PAY for it!

The check is going out tomorrow morning.

I forgot to mention above that in my dealings with SMS, I sent them a 2” square piece of my disintegrating seat material, and they Beautifully Recreated It!

The material that they created for my Series 80, had  4 -> 6 different colored threads (anyway) and has been approvingly commented upon by many PAS Gents and Ladies.

I had a good experience with them

 

[Author nameAuthor names are only available to PAS members.]

It is too bad that you guys (Jim & Bob) had bad experiences with SMS.

I didn’t know any better, and waiting for 6-months to a year was no big deal at the stage I  was in at refurbishing my 1925 Series 80, 7-Passenger DeLuxe Sedan.

I had many mechanical matters to attend to, and the upholstery was #6 on my list.

I was just happy to receive the fabric and then have my upholstery Gent (Petter D.) install it on the front and rear seats.  I have plenty of extra for finishing the project when I decide to have Petter re-cover the interior door panels.

Tom,

You should contact SMS for upholstery for your car.

They have an huge assortment of upholstery available, and likely the correct upholstery for your vehicle.

The Credits on the movie indicate that the Pierce-Arrow is a 1928, but gives no other information on ownership, etc.
