Randy,
Please post a photo of what it looks like now.
I believe that I have some spares, but I want to make sure.
Cheers,
Peter
The Deal for the Optima, 6V Red Top battery is DONE for this year.
I would like to thank everyone who participated and especially Optima Jim for originally offering PAS members “The Deal.”
Tell your PAS Friends to keep their eyes open next Spring, especially on the PAS Website Message Board, rather than on PAS mailings, so they Don’t Miss Out, or Near Miss Out on “The Deal”.
Of course, all of this hinges upon if we are sufficiently lucky to have The Deal again offered.
I hope to see many of you in Glens Falls next week
Keep Rolling,
Peter
Yo, Robert,
That would be correct!
Fricken Ridiculous!
EESCH!
Peter
Pierce-Arrow Members;
Yesterday, I was notified by Optima-Jim that because of scheduling issues, he EXTENDED “The Deal” until Friday, 16 June @ MID-AFTERNOON.
You have a bit of an extension, BUT DO NOT DELAY, or “The Deal” will be Done!
Cheers,
Peter
Hello PAS Members,
We are quickly approaching the Deadline for the Optima Battery Deal, which is: 6/14/23 @ 12:00 midnight.
If you are having difficulty making a Purchase, BE IN TOUCH, ASAP!
I trust that this will be another Favorable Year for The Optima Deal, as it has been in past years.
As usual, I wish to THANK Optima Jim for arranging The Deal.
Peter Williams
The Details on How to Order are Shown Above!
Randy,
I have a Very Nice one that I MAY BE Willing to LOAN YOU, but you will have to Guarantee that I will GET IT BACK!
You would have to send me the TITLE to your car, just in case, or your First Born Son!
HA! HA!
Let me know and we can work out a plan.
Best regards,
Peter
Bill,
Every person who has thoughts of refurbishing vintage automobiles should have at least one set of Thread Chasers.
I have two (2) sets because the smaller set has a few thread chasers not in the Larger set.
Harbor Freight!

Gents,
If interested, go to eBay and search for the following:
1936 Olds Headlight Lens Guide Multibeam
There are a BUNCH of this style headlight lenses available, but I DK if they will fit your Pierce.
Have FUN searching,
Peter
Jim,
I had nothing to do this morning, so I searched eBay and found the following:
I had an NOS set of these a few years back and sold them individually for $300.00.
This one is a DEAL!

Here are photos of the side view mirrors that I installed.
It is difficult to Pound Out the pins for the top hinges, hinges that had been in place since 1925.
By twisting the center knob the mirror moves forward from the center and causes the mirror to angle out so that the driver has “some” view of the left and right outsides of the car.
It is not very efficient and “head-checks” are required.
For that reason I installed exterior side view mirrors (photos following).
Gents,
My 1925, Series 80, 7-passenger, DeLuxe Sedan (named Chauncey) has a Full-Width, Two part interior rear view mirror.
It adjusts by moving the center out to provide “some” Side-View experience. However I always do a Head Check before I change lanes.
It is not as though I weave through traffic, as 45 – 50-mph is the maximum speed I can get out of Chauncey.
I will post a photo of it soon.
Peter
Someone may wish to contact one of the following for that photo:
Bob Sands
Jim Sandoro
Erie County Library
Erie County Historical Society
If one of those persons or institutions doesn’t have one, Good Luck on finding one.
I am a Buffalo Boy, and I don’t know where else one could go, except to Steve Rossi, who seems to be able to find all sorts of obscure Pierce-Arrow stuff and info.
Cheers,
Peter
