This is my 1931 Pontiac 401 Sport Sedan!
I don't have all of the information on it yet, but it was restored by my late uncle in the early 80's, as far as I know it cam from Ohio or PA when new, and was a lemon from the start!
This could be why it had survived for 76 years, but this summer I finally got all the bugs worked out of it with my brother and my dad, it had electrical gremlins that we were able to flush out, then we had to get the rebuilt distributor re-rebuilt, then the water pump had it's end shear off for no apparent reason, so my brother welded the thin casting back up (it was as thin as 1mm in places) the it developed feul issues after that, so I started at the carb and worked my way back.
My dad installed a used carb off of his 1933 Graham (updraft Stromburgh) to replace the poorly designed Marvel it had, then he and I rebuilt the fuel pump, then I replaced all of the fuel lines, and then I had to have the tank flushed twice!
I have been driving it daily for the last 3 weeks without a single problem, which is a shock to the system when I can drive it anywhere without it breaking down!!
I HAVE MANY COOL PICTURES THAT I WILL ADD AT A LATER DATE!
