I was lucky enough to see him at the EAA Air Show in Oshkosh last summer.
Boy, the stories he could tell!

Re: Serial Number question

Hap - Yes, this body number (158702B) is on the 1927 Coupe that is shown in my profile picture. The serial number is located in the same place as it is on Leon's car that you mentioned.

Re: Serial Number question

Mark Nunn - I took this picture from under the car, It was on the front cross sill, right above the U-joint. It was easier to read from the bottom.

Mark Gregush - You might be right. I just thought I'd ask. Thanks.

Serial Number question

According to the serial number on the block and frame of my car, it was made on 12/6/1926.
Is there any way of finding out when and where the body was made by the serial number stamped on it?
Is it 158702B or 158/02B ?
