A friend past away recently due to a long battle with cancer. His wife wants to sell his 29 phaeton, but needs help in knowing a fair asking price. I know sight on seen is difficult, but I know the car and it is very nicely restored. However, because of his illness he has not been able to get...

Hi guys and gals. I tried this once before, but now my 36 coupe is close to being ready for a new coat of black single stage paint. As you know there are many shades of black. I am looking for a nice deep black. Some blacks seem muddy with too much brown or gray. Many of the paint suggestions...

I have a carter 6 volt pump and it looks like Andy's picture. Mine is marked, Carter 7E15A- 430 made in USA, clearly marked on the metal case. I didn't know it at the time, but it will not flow fuel thru it unless it is turned on. The Airtex will let fuel flow thru it, so you can turn it off if...

Thank you for all the information and pictures regarding paints and what to look for, I really appreciate it. If I can get my car to look half as good as the pictures you folks have sent, I'll be happy. Frank.

Hello, Happy New Year, I hope everyone is staying healthy. I want to repaint my 36 coupe which is black. I want to stay with black because this will be a body on and I will be able to leave the firewall and door jams alone. I don't really like the look of the basecoat clearcoat on older cars. I...
