    in reply to: Side mount tire lockign device #402539

    Oivind posted a pic earlier of the correct spare tire holder but here are a few more.

    Note that mine does not have the special bolt with the scalloped section nor does it have the lock assembly.

    What an amazing find!

    Just imagine some poor chap in your shoes trying to completely resurrect a late teens Pierce and seeing these fenders for sale.

    I’m sure you would have been elated to have a set like this for your car when you were putting it back together. :)

    And that Pierce part number tag is a find in its own right.

    Handle came off exactly as David said.

    Now it’s time to take it to the locksmith and see about having a key made. :)

    in reply to: Front Door Handle Removal #402363

    Thanks, I’ll give it a shot.

    I just didn’t want to pull on the handle and break anything in the door.

    It will be nice to have a key after fifty-some odd years of owning the car. :)

    David, I love the look of your Cord.

    To find one unmolested has got to be a rare feat.

    Bill, that is some great information.

    Thank you for sharing so we can all take advantage of the info.

    Congrats on acquiring a Pierce.

    There is no finer car ever made and no finer group of folks than those in the Pierce Arrow Society.

    I second the request for pictures of your new car. :)

    Sorry to hear about your troubles along the way.

    Hope you get your car back into shape without too much hassle and expense.

    in reply to: 1929 Pierce Arrow For Sale #412955

    A lot of folks might find the front seat of a 1929 ED Limo cramped as there is not a lot of room up there.

    At 5’11” I find it cramped and driving for more than a few hours at a time takes a toll on my legs and lower back.

    I may have to look into removing padding to make it more comfortable to drive.

    I wish Frank good luck with the sale, his car is very nice.

    in reply to: 1929 Pierce Arrow For Sale #402192

    The car has been for sale for quite some time now.

    I am really surprised that it has not sold by now as it is a very clean, very complete restoration.

    The chrome wire wheels alone had to have cost a small fortune to have done and look very nice against the black body.

    in reply to: ’25 Series 80 Roadster takes 1st Place #402163

    Congrats on the honors.

    The car is truly beautiful.

    in reply to: Stromberg EX-32 rebuild help #402162

    Since you had fuel dumping into the cylinders enough to severely foul the plugs, be sure to change the oil before you do any real driving.

    The oil could very well be suffering from fuel dilution after all that fuel being dumped into the motor at idle.

    in reply to: Making progress on my Series 80 #402052

    Congrats on the progress.

    The engine is looking great!

    in reply to: Shop exhaust problems #401990

    It pretty much depends on how elaborate you want to get with your setup.

    I’ve seen this brand used in commercial shops before.

    What about cars with an all mechanical setup?

    Are soft, molded linings OK on those as well?

    I will need to do my front brakes in the near future so any feedback would be most helpful.

    Do tell, Ed.

    in reply to: PAMCC RIP 13 May 1938 #401954

    I will enter the date in my e-calendar so I will get a reminder every year.

    A very significant date for our cars.

    in reply to: 1936 Pierce 1601 Club Sedan at Upcoming Mecom Auction #401940

    Greg Long gave an estimate in an earlier post of $15K to $25K depending on overall engine condition.

    Dave Murray has a ’29 or ’30 coupe with a green engine block.

    At least he did when I saw it at the Oregon meet back in 2006.
