We can't help it, we just love this kind of barnfresh photos.

The wiring has been messed with, so I'm seeking wiring diagram. The Zenith updraft looks like it's missing something where theres an empty bracket, so any carb info is very welcome. I think there may be a compression release handle near the crank? Of course any pictures of one like this, I can't find one but there has to be one somewhere. Just wondering where to get info on the thing. There are 3 name plates but I can't find anything to mean anything. One has an 'E' with a number so I'm thinking E-series Touring. It has a 140 inch wheelbase, lots of brass, radiator, lights, windshield frame, caps and hubs. Any help is greatly appreciated, I want to get smart before I dig in. I think it's a 3 liter engine. Iit has 2 spark plugs in each cylinder; one on top, one inside. 35x5 wheels, gear shift handle and park brake look just like ones on Jay Lenos' 1917 Botofogo on YouTube. I've seen the fenders on another car but the body is different. The body is aluminim, fenders metal and wood running boards and floor boards. Thanks for anything!" |
