    Ron, I have a Delco book that should have that info, need year and model number, Karl

    in reply to: Series 80 horn #478570

    Calvin, the correct mounting bracket is a casting. All head bolts but one are standard bolts, the horn mounting head bolt has a stud that the horn mount attaches to the head with a nut. If you find the mount is tin stamping and not the casting when it arrives, I do sell a repro for the series 80-81s. They are a raw casting and need to be drilled for the three horn bolts and the stud. Karl

    Calvin, this photo of a 1926 Series 80 shows the Sparton AU horn, you should be looking for your car. It is a motor driven horn.  The Sparton SOS was used starting with the 1929 Models. After 100 years a SOS horn could find its way to a Series 80, but it did not leave the factory with this horn. Karl

    Calvin,

    I am pretty sure it is a Sparton AU and not a Klaxon horn. It has been a while since I owned a Series 80. I think all years take the same horn.

    Not everyone got to see Glen Falls as we toured towards Saratoga. When we took the second exit on the roundabout and went over the bridge leaving town the view from the bridge is Glen Falls. In the late 1800s they diverted the water from the falls into a canal to run a Hydro power plant. Only during severe rain would you get anything that looks like the 1800s. With the 10 inches of rain a few weeks ago it might be the only time in years that you would see falls from the bridge. It is still quite the gorge with or without the water! Falls

    My Banded feeder/ Waterer? has the same date on the bottom, May ,14, 78. It is just like the one on the left side of your cage. Karl

    in reply to: Pierce Birdcage #472220

    Let me add the following information I have two water holders that have Pierce on the bottom , note that the one has a band in the center unlike the other ones that have been posted up to this point. The third one has very large Pierce script and I assume this is for food it has a May 14 78 Pat date. Karl

    in reply to: Pierce Arrow Morrison No. 1 Jack #469598

    Steve, Morrison #2 is also a 1920’s Pierce jack. Plenty strong enough, however I would think too tall to get under the axle if the tire were flat. The Packard is a shorter 3 screw jack. I will take a photo of one and post later today. When used, the rear wheel to fender clearance is key to any jack you put in the trunk.  Karl

    in reply to: Pierce Arrow Morrison No. 1 Jack #469576

    Steve, our best research is 1935 and newer Pierce arrows did not get any tools or Jack from the factory. They did get a lug wrench. Keep in mind sales of the last three years were very small and profits were down. Deleting jack and tools would save the company money. The Packard jack of that era would be a good fit for your Pierce.

    in reply to: Series 80 Rear Hub Puller #469517

    Randy the correct puller for your Series 80 is 3 inches 16 threads per inch. Karl

    in reply to: 1918 Pierce-Arrow truck sells for huge money yesterday #469279

    I guess the old story: open vehicles always bring more than closed vehicles still holds true. Ha ha. Of course, I love this truck and trailer and hope the new owner brings it to a future Pierce meet.

    in reply to: Series 80 Head Iron Foundry Mark #468002

     

    Randy, looks like they started using the logo in 1923 but waited until the forty’s to trademark it for themselves.  The on-line info does not mention a foundry, but who knows. Only the Pierce script hammer has the logo on the reverse side of the head. Karl

    in reply to: Series 80 Head Iron Foundry Mark #467913

    Randy, It sure looks like the Fairmont Tool logo. They were the supplier of all tool rolls at this time for Pierce, Karl

    in reply to: Parking brake ratchet 1929 143 5-Pass. Dual CowlTouring #467679

    Joseph,

    Your new parts should fit 1929 all, and early 1930 Model C 3 speed transmissions. It will not fit 1930 3 speed’s with free wheeling as the e-brake handle and the arch of the ratchet are different. I checked and it looks like the mid 1930 4 speed arm and paw is the same if you have the ( herring bone tooth) transmission. This is what is in my 1930 Model B. The late 30 and 1931 4 speed transmission, may be the same but I do not have one to compare to my other 3 transmissions on the shelf. Then comes the early over drive in late 1930… It is no wonder Pierce went out of business using 5 transmissions in 3 years!

    The home page keeps getting better every day. The short video lets everyone know we are a touring bunch! I love the touring car in the mud puddle near the end. Where was that from? Karl

    In the 2021 Meet video on the home page check out minute number 14.27 seconds. This is a “goose” on the tracks at the National Toy Train Museum. Karl

    in reply to: Mystery/Suspect Email #466292

    Randy, I too received an e-mail from the same guy. It came right to my spam folder. He must be a scammer as he also has what I need for my 1921 R10 truck. (good luck with that!) I will contact the powers to see if we can ban an IP address like I can at the AACA site. The fact that he is using an e-mail to contact us there may be little we can do here except get the word out. ericfagens76@gmail….  is where mine came from. It sounds like Arnold R. had the same scam e-mailed to him. DO NOT RESPOND. Karl
