Looks like the plates say "Mass 40."[ATTACH]
I'll start restoration on it right away. Hand me that shovel.
How about this '50 Futuramic 88? Hard to see if there's a extra belt of chrome on top of the belt of chrome above the door handle. [ATTACH]
Tn. Trash, I think you're talking about The Day of the Triffids (1962). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Day_of_the_Triffids_(film) How do we...
All right, so what car is it? I've been searching through pictures of GM cars from 1949-'52 (thanks Ray) and some of the '50 Oldsmobiles look...
Here are three more ... [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

Thanks all!!
[ATTACH] Seen in Maine last weekend. A friend sent this photo and I'm stumped. Delahaye or Delage? Chuck Seattle
noboD, did your buddy's '24 have a removable cylinder head? I'm wondering if the 1923-'30 Buick Six had both a removable head and a...
Ah, shoot. I've been looking at prewar cars and the one I like the best so far is the '36-'37 Lincoln Zephyr. Of course one of the most expensive...
noboD, is this a later six then? What are the years of early and late?
Time's money, too. Cheaper when you don't have to hunt for parts, you just make a phone call and UPS drops it at your door a week later. Maybe you...
Any Buicks or Pontiacs? How about Cadillacs?
Thanks, patmanta. I only undo janky work at an hourly rate :) not on personal time. Basket cases are fine as long as it's not too much of a...
All right, so Model A and what else? Any GM or Mopar cars have similar parts availability and support? I'd only be driving this in the summer, so...
Discount looks for the moment. Just to drive around town and learn on. Say less than $10K to purchase.
I've built a few cars, but they've all been '60s or later, and I've been thinking of doing a prewar. What would be a good choice for an easy car...
All right, so no one cares. But think about the clues. The engine block is a six-cylinder Buick. The suspension part is a Lovejoy shock absorber....
Just curious. I'd like to know more about prewar Buicks in general, and this car in my backyard in particular. Thanks for the engine code...
Year and model would be closer. Where are the numbers located on the block? Where can I find out how to decode them?
Do 1927-1930 Buick blocks have useful numbers stamped into them?
Ray, you know what they say about first impressions ... So it's a 1927 to 1930 Buick. Any way to narrow it down further? Could you tell the body...
Thanks to all, especially Jim, Ray, lippy, and The 37Kid. Getting closer. Is the shock in the foreground a Lovejoy? Based on the shock's arm...
Hnstray, what tells you it's a Buick? Can you guess the year and model?
Thanks to all the knowledgeable people sending clues and answers. Is that thing in the front of the photos part of a Dubonnet, or "knee action"...
So it's a car? How can you tell it's a Buick?
Anyone know what this is/used to be? Found in a park on Cape Cod, Massachusetts. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I want to make a set of disc brake brackets and master cylinder mount for a Corvair Greenbrier, and I'm looking for experienced advice. What...
My Dad often sends name-this-car photos to me with good results. But this one has me stumped. [ATTACH]
