  • in reply to: ignition coil #401683

    The coils on my ’29 slide out of the mounting bracket.

    When I was troubleshooting an ignition issue I found that the diameter of the Napa coils was too large to fit into the mounting bracket.

    It is a beautiful car with a great color combination.

    Best of luck with the upholstery.

    in reply to: Finish of interior woodwork #401569

    Sounds good.

    For the best available lighting, tomorrow I will pull it out of the garage and take a few shots of the various wood pieces in the driver’s area and in the rear passenger’s area.

    in reply to: Finish of interior woodwork #401566

    Would it help if I took pictures of the interior wood on my original ’29?

    I know the lighting and other factors would greatly alter the appearance of the finish but I’ll take some pictures and post them if anyone is interested.

    in reply to: All 1929 & 1930 car owners take notice. #401442

    Boy, those of us with ’29 and ’30 cars have more than one spot to worry about on our cars.

    Steering boxes, weak exhaust manifolds, crumbling carburetors, rear axles that like to snap and fragile headlight retaining rings to name a few.

    Another photo of a Pierce Arrow I found looking through the pages and pages of pictures.

    There are some great vintage photos on the site, thanks for sharing.

    in reply to: Wire wheels have returned home!!! #401285

    Rick, the wheels are gorgeous and will look great on your car.

    Though, I don’t envy the work it will take to keep them looking great. :)

    Can’t wait for the finished product.

    For all you Windows 10 users you may want to tweak your privacy settings.

    I turned off as much information gathering as I could during the install when I upgraded to 10.

    Richard, what a great gift to display with your Pierce.

    Happy New Year everyone!

    in reply to: 1960’s L A barn find. #401061

    Local agencies (city/county) used the octagon with the E in the center, state agencies used a diamond with the E in the center.

    With the plate number it shouldn’t be too difficult to track down what agency owned the car.

    in reply to: 29, 30 or 31 Model 43 Stone Guard #401060

    John, I agree. I would never drill holes in a perfectly good radiator shell.

    Good luck with your quest to get the guard mounted to your satisfaction.

    And Merry Christmas to you, too!

    in reply to: 29, 30 or 31 Model 43 Stone Guard #401054

    John, in the emporium Frank Jones has a ’29 143 Limo for sale that has a stone guard.

    You may want to contact him and see if he can send you some pictures of how his is mounted or give you information for sourcing mounting hardware.

    The radio looks gorgeous now.

    Good luck getting the gremlins worked out once it’s in the car with the motor running.

    in reply to: 1933 Silver Arrow Custom sells. #400972

    Let’s hope this is the start of collectors and enthusiasts giving the PAMC the recognition and desirability all Pierce cars deserve.

    in reply to: 1936 Pierce for sale, San Diego, not mine #400874

    Looking at that side shot of the motor it appears to be the auction car that did not sell.

    Same rubber hose bypassing the oil cooler.

    in reply to: Thankful #400871

    Happy Thanksgiving to all the PAS families.

    in reply to: Front end shimmy #400814

    Years ago our Pierce had a real bad shimmy when a bump was hit at around 35-40mph.

    Front end was tight with proper alignment.

    Had new tires put on all the way around and had the front shocks rebuilt as they would leak out their fluid in a few weeks.

    I don’t know which one solved the shimmy but the car has never done it again after those things were done.

    in reply to: clock #400714

    That looks like a great find.

    You get the clock and the vanity in one shot.
