Durant & Star Illustrated Parts Book Available

I Have reproduced an ILLUSTRADED parts book that covers Durant and Star models M, M2, M4, 40, R, 55, and 60.

This is not just a price list but an actual parts book as used by Durant and Star dealers. It is dated July 1929,There are 127 pages with 20 pages of pictures showing views of parts from frames and wheels to interiors and trim.

The book lists all parts used on these cars. The actual part number, the models used on with a discription and sizes of attaching bolts, nuts etc.

Also if these numbers and applications changed during production the serial numbers where changes occured.

By using this book you can tell what parts interchange between these models.

There is also a suppliment for California Star cars that had 4 wheel brakes, so if you want to add front brakes to your Star you know what parts are needed and what models they can come from.

This is a quality copy from my original book. It has been enlarged to an 8 1/2" X 11" format which makes it easier to read. There are 127 pages and they are spiral bound so it lays flat. A great reference book

Cost to Club members is $29.95, plus $ 2.50 media mail or $3.85 Priority mail shipping. Pennsylvania residents must add 6% sales tax. Let me know and I will send you one immediately....


Thanks...............Frank

Re: Durant & Star Illustrated Parts Book Available

Hi Frank. Thank you for all your hard work. Getting stuff copied and bound is expensive. I would like a copy for sure. I'll send you a check today. I also need bumpers for the back of this 27 Star deluxe "R" car full type and a set of front bumpers for one of these 30 Durant 614 coupes. Any help? Later Lance
