I read it! I have not made a New Year's Resolution as of yet. I usually never achieve those that I do make, but maybe i will make a resolution to read this post more often or even complete the requirements of the post.

I'll be working on my Durant this afternoon and tomorrow, so I'll get the pictures of the caps I have on my model 65 for you. I'll send them to you by tomorrow evening.

Humm I think you hit the nail on the head as to why you aren't getting replies, I quote "IF YOU HAVE NO COMPUTER". If one hasn't a PC how would one read your posting in the 1st place ? ha ha. Must go with that special camera Frank didn't get.
If you come up to the land of ice and snow and bring your axe , pick and shovel with you, you might get into the shed where Dorothy is. Then we can get pics of the adjustable spoke wheels and caps. I would think our 6 1/2 caps are the same 30 - 32 with dished sides not round like the early 30's.
I could fool some with pictures of the front of mine but from the backside, all could tell they are 2 pound castings from Argentina. I have one orig, but it's very ugly, so will leave the '31 model 619 caps (6 inch backs) for wire wheels to the lucky one who has good originals.
Wayne
well...norm played a real toone on us...i never thought of the fact that non-pc'ers didnot see the request.....however....what about all of you that did?
How about looking at the hidden away pics you have...or literature you own and see if you can send something from that.....now thats a "different toon"....isn't it......or at least, "a horse of a different color"......that's an expression some of you never heard,.....laughter is the best medicine.....regards, gary k

Ah thanks Wayne .. wondered about 6 in caps, so they are 619's. Its those Ford A type caps / wheels I'm also curious about. Have seen them on 28/ 29's and Charlies 619. They don't look right for Durant's, ok on A's. I'd sure like a set of 6 1/2's as Dorothy's are, look but don't touch nor drive her on the street. Held on by rust strips and grace of God, plus dented everywhere. Look not bad in the pic on this site but pic's can make most things look good, if you are far enough away.
Cute Gary .... how about Car Toone or our Loonie and Toonie money. Why do you think I use Looneytune on Ebay ? Not everyone has movies and money named after them. And that's about as close to actually having any $$, as I'll ever get. You are watching too much old time movies "horse of a different colour". Wizard of Oz stuff.
