A new owner of a 1928 Durant

Just bought my father in laws 1928 Durant that he bought in 1968 in Illinois. Father in law started restoration in 1969 and he was transferred to San Angelo, car was stored in Illinois for several years then moved down to Texas. When my father in law retired he moved the car with him back to Wyoming, when he decided to sell the car my wife and I bought the car so that we could keep her in the family. The car has been in parts for the last 43 years, but it looks like most are still there and usable and or repairable. We are looking forward to the restoration but are sure we are going to need the advice, knowledge and patience of the Durant family.

Thanks in advance for everyone's help.

Hi Gwen & Mike......

You have found the best place for help & information on your Durant.

Durantonians are a very friendly & helpful bunch.

One item you will get with your membership is a roster of members and parts and services directory. This can be very helpful when you are working on your Durant.

As Charlie and the others have said, don't be a stranger. Come on out to one of our gatherings, you don't need a car to have a lot of fun.

We are not just a bunch of guys talking cars. The wives, girl friends and significant others have a lot of activities and fun at these meets also. My wife Cathy actually looks forward to these meets as much as I do.

Check out the previous events tab to see a lot of pictures from our activities.

Good luck with your "New" cat!!!
