Guess he tried him without luck (?)
Found a thread on the AACA and it sounded like he was having someone cast new ones? Think his user name is pre1939chrysler ?

Just ran across someone needing one these, not familiar with Jays is it a shop? Do you have contact info?

I am still looking for the side mount hold down hardware for my 30-U if you come across any of it.

Thanks Russ T. Didn't see much for that kind of hardware, but I think the parts motor he had sitting in the garage (which I'm now tripping over) was a 30. Not in great shape, think I'll part it out and toss the bad.

I thought about Minnesota but think it might be a bit to far even with the car trailer. Anyway dealing with some critical issues at home that are monopolizing my spare time. 

Congratulations, Chet

I get it, its a long haul from the coast. I never made it to a national show and since its finally landing here, I better go!

I hope you get your issues resolved, best of luck.

thanks

Quote from: Touring29 on April 01, 2024, 07:12:31 PMGreat pictures Dave. It's good to have you coming around again. Videos would be good too. I am still looking for some hood latches (both pieces) for our 29 Touring and I still haven't figured out anything on wipers but I haven't tried very hard. 

Don't have much of any body stuff and both my wipers assemblies are shot. Probably have to buy some generic kit or find a ford or chev cross over.

Member DFeeney (Don) on the AACA is the only guy I know who has one. I'm sure you have run across him over there. If anybody knows were they are hiding he does. And there isn't many!

Quote from: Touring29 on March 18, 2023, 11:16:54 PMDoes anyone have a old drive housing that could be copied? My oldest is getting to be a pretty good machinist working in a tool & die shop and is curious to see if he can make one. Mine is going for now and I don't want to disturb it fearing it will self destruct.

Been there done that 

Check out my old thread from the dead. Friend machined me that got me by for a few years until I tracked one down. I may have an old base, but it won't be in good shape. FYI- there was some new ones on ebay that were made in Germany ? I think for $399. Not sure if they are still listed any longer, probably not much of a market for them.

Hey fellas,

Been a busy last few years, did more car stuff last summer than usual. Member Frank P passed away last year and I helped his kids sort through his Plymouth stuff. I ended buying his roadster. We cruised it to the local shows around me quite a bit last summer. Below are a few shots from one of the threshing shows I bring stuff to and Frank use to meet me at. Couldn't pass up some sunset shots in front of a period correct gas pump! Also brought out the old original sedan and its a horse a piece for what gets more attention. Have to keep people (and kids) interested in this old stuff to keep it alive!

I plan on doing some videos on the cars this summer and will post them here when they are complete.

I do have some random parts from Franks collection I have to go through yet, so if anyone is looking for something odd I may have it. (that guy kept everything)

The national meet is in Minnesota this year and I plan to go for the first time. So if anyone is planning on making the trip let me know!

Nice!

I buy most of my period correct electrical stuff from Brillman. If you don't see what you are looking for call. I have bought rebuild kits for my old tractor generators. Site link below.

I heard the show for 2024 is coming to Brainerd MN. Can anyone confirm more information about? And who plans on attending?

I know I need to become a member...

No idea, I'm not convinced the first one listed doesn't leak.

I have one good one, but for road driving I feel better with a fuel pump.

A few weeks back I met with Frank P's son and got his sedan running, drove it around the storage unit grounds and it runs on the Kingston!

There is 2 I saw listed

Nice. Both of them on my sedan are broken off, but are intact on the roadster. They were plated, kind of like the door handles (on a sedan) I can take a picture if you want.

Edited my top post to include service info.

Planned on hitting a national show together, but it never happened.
Its amazing how fast your health can change. Don't put off anything on those wish lists, if you have the means to do it.
