Hi, Andrew, and welcome! That Series 80 is a fine, durable car, and the open models are special fun.

I met Luke at Angola and admired his car; a sad story with a great outcome. You will have many happy times with the Series 80 and there are a lot of resources here to assist you. I know this from personal experience!

The 1929 colors included Sapphire blue with black fenders; the 1930 colors continued the sapphire blue/black combination, and added blue moss/black, and blue hour/Botticelli blue combos.

From the colors I found underneath later paint on my ’31, I believe it and Mark’s car may be the Amherst blue/black combo.

The 1932 lineup had Pierce-Arrow blue upper and lower with black moulding and a silver stripe; and clipper blue No. 3 upper and lower, with clipper blue #4 on the moulding, and a brown stripe, so that looks like it might be the combo on Ryan’s Car.

Mark, I just got my car’s engine out of the shop after a complete rebuild. It ran OK but it was just worn out and I don’t want any trouble if I can help it.

I like this car; obviously you either bought it or were offering it for sale. I am in recovery or I would have bought it…thanks Mark!

It seems equipped like my example:

Thanks, everyone. I have anything already on the internet. I was hoping for a photo of a car.

This is one 1931 Series 43 photo I have:

Thank you all for your help! Yes, I see I have a missing part; I seem to have the steel part underneath the center of the chrome part, as is visible in Mark’s photo, but my chrome part is missing.

I will obviously need to search for this part. Of course, if anyone has or finds one for sale, I am interested.

David White pretty-much covered the topic as I was planning, so I erased the paragraph I drafted in favor of “ditto””. Keep it full of clean oil and try not to worry so much that you can’t enjoy it. It will be OK.”

Did Pierce use roller tappets in all the later cars, as in my Series 80?

Parts for the Marvel inverse oilers can be obtained from: George Folchi

email [email protected] phone 8603555706. He also has parts for AMPCO units.

Even the replacement decal is available, but I don’t have full contact info yet.

Note that my only interest in this is to help someone who may encounter one of these and need parts or help.

Merry Christmas to all from sunny northern Louisiana, basking in the 70s!

The tube on my ’31 seems to be a length of square-lock flex tubing. I have no idea it is original; it’s what is there.

This is a new one…

The door glass on my Series 80 coach is flat as Kansas and should be no problem to buy. I have receipts which indicate it is all new safety glass but none of it is marked as such.

I used the two-wire clamps on the Series 80 and haven’t had an issue with leaks.

Love that Daimler; one of my favorite British makes. There was a postwar Daimler at the Branson auction about a year ago; will check to see what it was. It had a Wilson pre-selector transmission.

Tony: glad you’re not in a bind over the power issue.

I think perhaps there are so few of them that they are relatively unknown.

I like John’s Pierce there!

Hi, Gang, I hope someone will have compassion on we who are not there, and post some cool photos of the goings-on! I really miss it and plan to better arrange my affairs so I can be there next year.

You all have a great time!

Sorry I won’t be able to attend; you all have a great week!

As the green Pierce is listed as still for sale, does anyone know the high bid?

Kathryn and I are so sorry for your loss. Loki was a very special fellow! We will miss him but remember him fondly.
