Car Transport Companys?

Mike S
 

Does anyone have any personal experience with car transport services?  I need to move a large car ('57 Nash) from Los Angeles, Ca to Illinois.  I applied for a quote on a couple of internet sites and now my phone and my email box is full of messages from companies I've never heard of.  I'd rather deal with a service that I can verify a track record.
thanks
Mike S

From the pictures on the site, it looks like a solid body that has had a fair amateur restoration.  No pictures of interior but I see hints of it that do not appear original.  Engine and running condition are unknown.  I'd say probably 2,500 with what you know.  If the interior is decent and it runs ok, you could double that for a driver.

Hello all,
Please bear with me as I continue to learn about Crosleys. One recently came up for auction about an hour away from me. Public inspection will not be available until next week but I need to run something past you before that happens. The auction house lists the VIN as CE79325. I thought that a CE was a military engine? Also states automatic transmission. Is that possible? The nose looks like it’s correct for the year from what I’ve gleaned from the club web site. No idea if it runs/ stops/ steers, etc. Pictures look like a solid body  but no interior or engine shots. It’s not a show car but appears complete and is up on air.
I know it’s a reach, but what is the price range for a running ‘47 sedan, assuming it is a driver or close to it. Please give me your high/low and I can figure out where it falls when I see it and get more details.

Thanks for your help!
Dave

David,

CE, will be an engine number, for some stupid reason, a number of states used the engine number for title and registration purposes.

No, automatic transmissions were never used in Crosleys, from the factory. Who knows what someone may have done in the mean time.

Pricing, I will leave to others, as they're all over the place.

Re: Clutch and pressure plate

Butch
 

6" possibly has a bit smoother engagement. The 6 1/2 has more holding power. Both of those claims are subject to conditions.

Yes, the flywheel/pressure plates, have different bolt patterns.

I see from Service Motors there is a 6 inch and a 61/2 inch clutch and pressure plate. Is there a difference in performance of the clutch? Are the bolt holes different ?  What cars used 6 vs 61/2. I have a Faegol 44 I am installing in my hotshot. Just want to make sure I get the right clutch.

Hi Welcome to the group.
 Feel free to ask any questions here. Everyone is more than helpful. Do you have any Crosley’s yourself? Where are you located?

Neal,

I have never seen a Tin Block, with the fuel pump mounting location, any where but the front of the camshaft area.

The fuel pump is NOT driven by the camshaft itself, but rather by an eccentric on the camshaft gear, directly behind the teeth.
