Back to the 50s in St. Paul this weekend

What pin layout is that? And is the pin above #12 #13, or #24?

Cobalt TCM plug…

24…
1-12, 13-24, 25-36, 37-48, 49 is main ground

That is looking at the harness side of it (for back probing) being plugged in, so when you turn it around for ohm testing you have to remember that… ask me how I know… lol
The scanner also gives you the wiring info also…

Good point!

Personally I wouldn’t have taken any offense to your comment but instead accepted it as well intentioned advice from a well informed observer. A nice part of owning a 1952 classic for over 40 years is that you’re always leaning something and trying to improve so a technical discussion with someone who shares my mania is always a pleasure.

That sounds like an incredible show with all the classic cars! It must be a dream come true to see so many from 1964 or earlier in one place. I have heard that some areas of the show have been covered, which would be a big help if the rain gets worse. Are there any particular cars or exhibits you are looking forward to seeing this weekend?

Welcome to the forum! Unfortunately, you posted to a two year old thread, you can see the date in the top right of each post.

I think most of us did..! Context is key.

Welcome to the forum, the show is in June on Father’s day weekend. I’ve seen the video they mentioned on the website. Kinda like a little bit of everything. Have to make sure the relative I could visit will be in town that weekend

This is the internet. It lasts forever. It’s been two years and still remember the exchange. I don’t hardly go to these things anymore and rarely talk to the owner. They all stsrt to look the same after 20-30,000 cars.

Just to prove that unusual vehicles can be seen at vintage car shows, this 1940 Studebaker K-10 truck (owned by a NJ farm machinery company) was on display at Somerville, NJ’s Friday Night Cruise-in a few years ago.

Local historical society restored a 46 ā– ā– ā– ā–  truck from the brewery that folded some years ago. Runs now too. Turns out th3 guy that lived across the street was the driver. At noon I’d see it parked and the side panel said 1856 to 1956.

You guys better fix this pretty quick or you’ll say nice site you had once. B e e r is censored???

Do you believe that is the reason people don’t ask questions anymore? Lack of cerveza conversations?

ā€œUs Guysā€ can do nothing about it. If you are addressing the moderators; they do not read these treads, nor do the forum developers. Your complaints will never be seen.

Almost 20yrs ago we found this invoice among my grandpa’s papers when he passed at 87. They ordered a 47 chevy town sedan that arrived at the dealer the day my dad was born

While working for USAiD the chevy went to Lebanon for a gew years before being shipped back. Had to be repaired in the middle of the Syrian desert when grandpa hit a rock large enough to bend something in the front end. We’ve read the full account of the journey from Beruit to Baghdad in 1952. They were driving back at might when the incident occurred.

Something never heard about that truck- Hey! you scratched my bumper!
:laughing:

Always liked the looks of the old work trucks…

Last week saw a 51 Buick hardtop being driven on a local boulevard. Could not identify the model, it did have three portholes. Had lakepipes, otherwise appeared stock, needed some work, but overall decent. At the next light, he turned right, I turned left.

That rules out the Roadmaster model, which was the one with 4 portholes.
