I'm quitting RC, for this... 1929 Landau

[Road America]

What kind of fuel pump does it have? I know some old Chevys (don't remember what years) had some sort of kooky vacuum system for drawing gas from the tank. There was a canister with some complicated valve stuff on the firewall. I never knew how they worked.

Yeah, I didn't of sand blasting. Great idea, as well as a media blasting cabinet for the smaller stuff.

I want to hear that horn!

My buddy had a dual-trumpet airhorn on the deck of his Chris-Craft and I loved hearing it echo off the bluffs on a quiet Mississippi River morning. Thought about putting one in my car but never got there. Not sure if that one is air or electric?...

Brakes move now Need some adjustments to the wheel links, but I think I'll pull the tires so I can inspect and clean from the hubs back to the main shaft.

 

[slw2206]

Well the brake shafts work great now. Time to move down the line to the brakes. These look like they've been neglected for awhile. Everything moves and the springs return, but I think I'm going to put new pads on regardless.
Never changed mechanical brakes before, but you gotta learn sometime

I’m glad you are still posting on here, I love the progress you are making!

 

[Alwaysonauto]

Yeah, me too. I didn't know it had brakes like that on it. Not expanding shoe but contracting shoe brakes.
What condition is the drum they contract onto in?
Take lots of pictures, both for us and yourself for putting them back together again.
