hello durantonians,
i am pleased to announce that i will be allowed to research freely in the PHILA. LIBRARY'S AUTOMOBILE COLLECTION... it is restricted access so it is quite a privilege and opportunity. i will check their files for all our cars including the frontenacs...they have productions figures, factory photos, and endless books on every auto related topic. ..including manuals and such for many cars. i bought a copier printer photo all in one thing by hewlett packard and will be copying my fingers to the bone to gather info for the parts guide project plus more.....i cannot wait for wednesday..my first day there....more later,
regards, gary k
Do You own a car built by Durant? 1929 durants...6-70 & 6-63
Gary:
Back in the early 70's I corresponded with the Philadelphia Free Library and received a couple of pictures of the Frontenac and some advertising. I wonder if they have acquired any more in the interval. Will be interested in hearing about your adventures.
