Mike,

    Can you tell us where you sourced that faux ignition battery cover ? I really want one of those things, but have not been able to find one .

I bought the fake dry cell on eBay a number of years ago. I can’t recall seeing any recently, but one seller I do remember selling them was “tignal”

Hi Mike, Your Daniel Davis Motor is a great acquisition and a superb addition to your collection.

You have done a great job cleaning it and getting it straightened out.

Congrats...!!!

Thanks Gil! I wish I still had it, but an Austrian collector made me an offer on it I couldn’t refuse, so I had to let it go. Apparently, it was worth right around $10K. About the same time, two Model T Fords in a friend’s collection became available, and now they are in my collection. They are way more fun. 😁😁
