Re: How does your club communicate on tours?

We have used CB radios for as long as I can remember. (40years) Run an alternator and a 6v converter with no issues.

Re: '30 Roadster seat questions

That seat bottom has the correct seam location for early 30 standard roadsters. It was changed to the top edge later. No upholstery company makes it correct for a early 30 standard roadster.

Re: Rarity of a 30-31 Blindback

Also which style rear bumpers do you have? The standard split bumpers or the slant window style split bumpers?

Re: Rarity of a 30-31 Blindback

I have a 160c. How early is yours? My engine number is late January of 31 and my body number is 70. I believe mine should have no door pockets, only 1 cowl panel pocket, and only one sunvisor...

Re: "butler" finish for instrument panel?

He did parts this past winter for my 30 standard roadster. He told me he doesn't do bumpers anymore, but he did all the nickel pieces.

Re: 30 standard roadster vacuum windshield wiper

Judging standards say a TR-01B (trico) if your car was built mid year or after. My Standard roadster is an early 30 which was electric.

Re: Brake Cross Shaft Bushing

Re: Wind Wing for 31 Roadster
