Hello, you are probably sleeping well after the successful completion of this casting project. It is simply a big labor of love and a true piece of art. I hope you cast up a spare to help out the next poor chap that is in dire need of one of these.....it always happens! What material was used for this casting? Al

Very nice work you crafty rascals! Al

Good work and a very nice way to be amused. It might be a bit different if you were doing this project outside in the rain! Al

Nice.....one more little step in the right direction! Al

What is the link to the auction listing book. It would be good to see how many teens or earlier trucks are being auctioned. Al

Very Nice.....This is a good memory to keep alive! Al

The ball is in motion at this moment. My engine really needs a proper home. Al

Could anyone, on the British side of the pond, put me in touch with the new owners of the recently purchased Riker that was found near Paris? I would like to converse with them and get a few pointers. Al

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure! Good Catch!

It looks like it mounts to a subfre likely the same as would the engine. Al

That is an interesting way the American -LaFrance has been restored. I like it! Is it still running the original engine? Al

Do you have the ability to produce a 3D copy from a photograph? Al

Nice work in miniature! That takes a serious degree of talent? Al

I am totally taken by the quality of your radiator rebuild from start to finish. I wish I could have been with you on your tour around the countryside. Al

On the strange spacer..... I agree with Gordon. This piece is likely a sacrificial item. Just a thought, maybe as it is cracked anyway, consider making a new one out of plate brass and never wonder or worry. Galvanic corrosion will be stopped.

Nice work on the quadrant. You will certainly be happy when you run the truck while the throttle and spark adjustments will stay in place!!!!! Al

I don't suppose that anyone has dug a Riker frame out of the hedgerow this spring? 🙂 Al

Any new wiggles on the Riker/Locomobile truck front? Al

oh man........to bad that our fore-site is not as good as our hind-site! Nice pictures, none the less! Al

Hello Andy, Thanks for your reference. Yup, Dave was just trolling for a sale of a radiator shell that has ZERO to doing with this WW1 Thornycroft rig. Thanks for helping us to sort out the EBAY listing. Now if that piece was from an original 1917 Riker........... Al

Hello Dave, I tired several ways to see what you are selling on US EBAY and also UK EBAY. Please purify your EBAY listing as it does not work as is. It may be good to suggest what it is that you are selling, you may have more interest. I am curious but lost! Al

Here is another current EBAY Locomobile/Riker piece of sales propaganda for sale. Al
