Ken,
BTW, contact Paul Jacobs, as he was selling reproductions of that cap for something in the range of $100.00.
Those you can drill for a Moto Meter without ruining a piece of history (original bakelite cap) that you will never again find.
Peter
John,
Welcome to the Pierce-arrow Society!
NICE SNAG at Owls Head!
Enjoy the 54 Coupé.
Peter
Loyd,
What do you mean about if a radiator cap being original?
Do you mean how does one know if it is a reproduction?
Please explain.
Peter
Gents,
I must admit that I’m sorry I wasn’t at that Owls Head Craps Table with $40-Large in my pocket.
Peter
David,
The Auction person from Owls Head indicated: “Eh, car was not perfect, ran well, and prewar closed car. So it was a good buy for sure .”
That is all I know, however, it is a Model 54 Coupé. and there are only about five currently listed on the PAS Roster.
Also, I was not correct about the price.
It was $33,550.00 all fees included.
Peter
Jim,
That car has had 7-owners since 1974 and was most recently purchased at Hershey in 1997 by a Gent named Gary Lawing, of Tampa, Florida.
Before that the names associated with it are; McBel Trust, Florence Belden, Marshall B. Belden, Wally Rank and Leo Gephart who bought it in 1974 from AstroWorld.
This is probably useless info for you, but I had some time on my hands to do the research.
Peter
Tony,
It SOLD for $30,000!
That was a STEAL!
I understand that the high bidder was wearing a black mask and black leather gloves!
WOWIE!
Peter
David,
How about these!
Peter
Kenneth,
A handsome Series 80, DeLuxe Sedan!
Peter
David,
I don’t know if it is useful, but years ago, I found some things under the BACK seat of my car.
Until then, I thought that under the FRONT seat was the only place for storage.
Peter
John,
George is always having fun with his Pierce-Arrow cars.
Even when George finds a pile of horse poop, he starts looking for the pony!
Peter
David,
Welcome to the Pierce-Arrow Society!
We are a helpful group, so no question it too dumb to ask.
We are all on a learning curve, regardless of our years of experience with Pierce-Arrow cars.
Peter
Jay,
Do you have the round bar / tube-type bumper holders / arms?
If not, I believe that Karl Krouch reproduced them recently.
Peter
Jay,
Here is a photo of the Hancock’s Series 80 Roadster (now sold). It was a Weis Award winner.
Note that it has an aftermarket Duplex front bumper.
Peter
Jay,
I somewhat recall that Wayne and Marc Hancock were making the bumper tubes, but I may be wrong.
They are PAS members and you can email them.
Also, a ton of Series 80 cars, mine included, have “aftermarket bumpers” that are made from “flat stock” so as to upgrade the look of the car to make it look more modern.
Mine were made by “The Royal Bumper Company” of Chicago, Illinois.
Peter
Jay,
I believe that it depended on how you ordered it from the factory.
Now, you get the choice of how you want them finished.
However, most of the ones that I have seen are black with nickel end caps.
You might wish to check Previous Meet photos (on the website) for photos of Series 80 cars.
Peter
David & Elizabeth, and all others involved,
This is a very NICE calendar.
Peter
YUP!
