2. Brass buckets for the 1932 Series 16 right side tail lights. This is made without the opening for the license plate as the license plate is on the left side. If you are careful, you can cut out the license plate opening for the left side. You will need to drill the 4 holes in the back and chrome these for the 32's. The 1931 uses the same bucket (check your tail lights to make sure) and would be painted black. These were seen at the 2009 Westrek. $55 each and $9 for shipping Continental US. No overseas shipping.Tony Fontana. Address in roster or email franklin_1932_speedster@yahoo.com
   
   A club members comments: I just bought one of the 1932 taillight buckets from Tony Fontana as listed on the Club Site. It's great and of real good value. I recommend them for anyone with the desire for a right taillight or left for that matter that has that TRESLITE lamp from 1931 up. Get em while they last! You probably know how impossible they are to find at Hershey or anywhere else, whether there Treslites or Marmalites for Marmons.
   
   
3. Watson Stabilator Wrenches. Duplicate of original. Made from precision cut, heavy gauge stainless steel. $25.00 each, plus shipping. Contact; Paul Fitzpatrick, P.O.Box 210, Sherburne, NY 12460 - e-mail airiscool@frontiernet.net
   
   
   
4. REPRODUCED PARTS for a 1929, series 13, 135 sedan.
   THROTTLE: Lost wax casting in bronze from original zinc die cast part. Finished and nickel plated; ready to drop in. Excellent fit. $180.00 Plus $10.00 for packing, postage, and insurance

   GRILL CAP: Lost wax casting in bronze from original zinc die cast part. Finished and chrome plated over nickel plating. Note it is the one with the Herringbone decoration around the perimeter and measures 3 1/2" in diameter. Shrinkage is less than 1/16" diameter from the original pot metal piece. Some very, very small pits hardly seen at arms length. Special attention to herringbone detail so to duplicate original as accurately as possible. On underside one can see the original factory number in the fine detail and the stud has been drilled and tapped to 5/16th x 18, square and straight to the piece. $400.00 Plus $10.00 for packing, postage, and insurance
   
   

   These prices reflect cost only and no profit is realized. Plaster molds, rubber molds, casting, finishing to auto quality plating adds up fast, but I was very pleased with the results. These parts will be at the 2008 Trek

9. DECALS FOR DASH AND CIGAR SET - Looks just the ones Franklin manufactured. This picture shows a green color which is really reproduced as the original gold very well in the decal itself. These decals were made on a 1.3 million dollar Heidelberg Press which handles the difficult job of printing metalic gold ink Price is $30.00 for complete set of 3 decals plus one extra one free for experimentation or marking alignment on dash. This will also give you insurance against any problem you might have. Decals will take clear finish without running the ink. These are not water decals but rather high quality prints on sticky material. Looks even better than originals at all viewing angles. Dick guarantees you will be pleased or return the decals for a full refund. Decals would look fine as final touch without any clear coat over them also.Write, call or e-mail Richard M.
