About This Club

This region is for P15-D24/Pilothouse members living in New England or New York. Goal is to provide a connection for locals to offer each other local assistance, diagnosis and support for problems, share spare inventory, sponsor cruises and meet ups, etc. The group is focused on cars/trucks from the 30's - 50's, but all are welcome.

  6. Cool stuff!
  7. Hello, all...been on the site for a while but didn't know this club was here, glad I found it. I'm in Southern RI and I am working on a 230-powered 'Race Rod' 1933 Plymouth coupe. It is a surprise for my father (now 85), a replica of an asphalt short track car he used to run at Riverside, Plainville Stadium, and the Waterford Speedbowl back in the day (mid 50's), except I'm making it roadworthy so he can drive it on the street. I found what was left of an old dirt track race car out west (not much!), dragged it back and have been plugging away for two years. I've had some help and direction from the AoK/George Ashe gang (man they know their stuff) and by reading all of the good advice on this website. Hope to be fully up and running this summer, looking forward to the 'reveal' party with my Dad...he's going to be VERY surprised! Best to you all - Mike
  8. A fun filled driving and touring weekend is in store as we ramble the back roads and coastline of historic New Hampshire. This years picnic will be the best yet! Save the dates now! ?? Manchester NH, September 15-18, 2022 ?? EMAIL: mark@rdusaclassics.com for more info or to Vernon our mailing list.
  9. This corner of the P15-d24 world doesnt seem often visited. But thanks for the poke and greetings from Bolton Mass. In the fall of 2020 we held the P15 Picnic in your back yard, too bad we didnt get you at that event, but we will be hosting again this in 2022 in Manchester NH. Your car looks like a solid driver and we would love to have you in attendance. Send me your email address and I will add you to the email blasts that we will be assembling in the next few weeks as we start the planning for September 2022. In the mean time Worcester seems to be a halfway point for both of us and we could put together a small p15 contingent for a spring dust off if you are interested! Drop me an email anytime; mark@rdusaclassics.com cheers, Mark
  10. I hadn't seen this corner of p15-d24. So I joined this NY/New England group. But - is it moribund? Another good idea that didn't pan out? Put another way, is there anyone here? Any interest in events? I am also a member of the Colonial POC Region, but there too, it seems to be just holding on. I could host a small "cars and coffee" in Belchertown (just south of Amherst MA) if there is interest. Speak up if interested. On another note, I have proudly turned my own wrenches for many years but age, injury, and an ant infested driveway to work in has got me wishing there was any commercial shop in the area that has the skill and the will to do upkeep work on the car. You know, someone with a lift in a paved garage, hey? My name is Rivka - any interest or clues are welcome! I have a small hole in my oil pan and there is NO way I would drop the pan in the driveway. Trying to seal it with JB Weld but really needs to be removed and repaired right and I don't think I can handle it any more.

    Hi all - A couple of us Northeast Region forum members are putting together a classic driving tour event and we want to invite anyone in the area to come along with us. At the moment we have about 10 cars signed up, coming from Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, and New York. Our plan is to rally our cars in Bennington VT on Saturday mid day. We will be touring the Hemmings Collection, and making stops at a few local sites along the way to the Saratoga NY area (about 50 minutes apart). Saturday evening will be spent together at a local motel where we can circle the wagons and tailgate. Sunday will be spent at the Saratoga Auto museum touring and taking part in their open invitation car show. If you want to hang out with a nice group of people and tour with us, we'd love to have you along. We are not charging anything for attendance, expenses are whatever limit you chose to set. We will have a hotel chosen within the next 24 hours and will send word on that asap. please drop me an email or call if you want more info or want to be added to the email that we will send with details. thanks, Mark
  12. Drop me an email or call or text. Mark@rdusaclassics.com 978.333.0758 cell It’s funny I just passed through Manchester a few minutes ago headed up to Northwoods New Hampshire to pick something up, and then I’m headed back
  13. So far so good! i have put about 1600 miles on it since i bought it. just driving around. I am waiting for the drive ins to have movies i am interested in before i go there with it. right now they have had all the new disney movies or the new superhero movies. Hopefully they will have like an action/comedy combo or a comedy/horror combo (The drive ins does two movies back to back). I would be happy to meet up with you! we can find someplace in the middle hopefully others will be up for a meet up too.
  14. Sorry I didn’t see this sooner! How’s the cruising going? I’m in central mass, happy to make a plan to meet up.
  15. Let’s see what the weather looks like tomorrow for Sunday, and I can swing up with the convertible for a visit Sunday .
  16. Sadly I will be at a graduation party. And then after that I will be hopefully able to put the rear axle back together now that I am pretty sure I have the correct seals. I ran to that problem a few other members ran into where the rear seals were smaller than what the factory sent them. Sunday i am currently open and it should be ready to rock. I'm also open next weekend.
  17. Whatcha up to tomorrow mid afternoon?
  18. Have my first classic car and very excited. Anyone in the area interested in cruising the coast or something this summer or going to the drive ins? I know there are classic nights in the area i can hit, but looking to meet this community a little more.
  19. Just realized how to check if anyone responded haha! I would love to meet up. 25 miles is nothing! i would be happy to meet and Chat! i have a couple mechanic friends that are "helping" but the oldest is 28 so some of this "ancient technology" (his words) is throwing him for a loop. Some of the stuff i would like to look at is the wiring for some of the buttons. not all my switches are connected to anything. and if i could measure the bracket for the radio so i can make one that would be cool. Either way lets meet up for ice cream or something with our rides and cause a scene. I bought the shop manual for it but that is kinda vague in some areas and only gets me so far without a finished project to see what things should look like or do. for example i read in the owners manual (bought that too) that the speedo changes color based on speed and to turn on the instrument panel lights you flick a little switch. found the switch.. not connected.. looks like a 3 stage switch but book sounds like it is only supposed to have two positions? just little things like that.
