Looking for a partial or complete interior kit with panels and seat upholstery for a '30 Murray Three window Town Sedan in Mohair. Camel or tan to light brown colors. Many thanks! Greg

Railcarmover, Your analysis once again makes absolute perfect sense throughout. Everyone naturally wants whatever documentation they can get but even for much more recent production such as my C3 Corvette, documentation of so many of it's features just does not exist. Thank you again, Greg

Tudortomns, Thanks for a great and informative reply. This is a valuable perspective and especially regarding production outside the states and the change of setup for a run and repeat makes sense to me. I might add here speaking of customers outside the states, photos I have ever seen of the...

Thank you for this lengthy post which took a lot of effort. You are an intelligent and knowledgeable person who has offered a strong opinion which is just what is needed on a controversial subject. It is not in agreement with every opinion posted in reply nor need it be. In fact difference in...

Railcarmover, Many thanks for a great reply. I think you are dead on correct in your assessment. I further concur that auto manufacturers are all about profits. My father once worked in assembly and said he wished he had a dollar for every time they were told to throw exhaust parts, bumpers...

I might suggest we start talking more about horses instead of cars at this point though I question it would lessen the confusion. Really hard to imagine considering the fact that an actual "Town Car" is so exceedingly rare, that anyone asking questions about interiors of the two models of the...

d., You are correct in that my terminology needs adjustment. I know the limo you speak of and you are again correct that it is the only "Town Car". I however was using that as a "slang term" as many do for the Town Sedan. I was not though confused as to the two cars. What I have been discussing...

Hold your horses. You begin by saying that I ask good questions then go on to counter yourself by inferring I am trying to convince others of what I cannot prove. Your initial assessment would be correct in that asking questions is in fact all I am doing. I am here to learn and to share, not to...

If we look at variations in the interior features of fordors it seems we must speculate about the origins of some of the differences. We can study such as the book "As Henry Built It" and learn exactly what features went with this or that model "by the book" but how do we explain variable...

Sounds great guys. I will call the wood products people and the pics with measurements would be huge to me. If I do have to make it my nephew has a great idea to let the kids in his high school vo-tech shop class do it as they have students who are already very good and all of the machinery to...

Thanks Y-Blockhead. Fantastic photos for study. Will be very useful. Greg

Thanks! I will check it out. Greg

I am in MO Ray. I doubt from what we are seeing that it is anyone with Model A knowledge. Outlaw hoodlums who saw it and knew it was there and came in the middle of the night. Thanks. Greg

Keith, I only wish I had something left of the seat to post a pic of. They broke in and took all seats among other things. I can buy new the four springs assemblies but know not where to get the front seat carriage which houses the backrest cushion and the seat cushion. Greg

Good Morning to all. I am needing to replace my front seat carriage in my '30 Murray Fordor having just been hit with a theft/chopping of the car. No problem in buying new the four springs and wood for the lower sets though wood for the upper springs I have not found for the rear and don't...
