Ok..... here are two photos of the engine with the timing chain installed. The motor builder was in a bad mood and didn't want me to uncover the...
There are only 26 known 1932 V-12 Pierce Arrows. In 30 years of looking I have never seen any E-2 carbs offered for sale. The 1933 to 1938 EX-32's...

It can only be a 29 or 30; from the hood style doors my guess is a 1930 Series C 5 or 7 passenger sedan. Very nice new car while the depression is...
