Not yet but you can start one. Then people can send you stuff to post on it.

I've been restoring 2 1927's (Coach & Landau) and have posted over 500 photos of my effort. I have a lot on line, like you I'm trying to generate a database of info you can look up if you're having problems, a picture is worth a thousand words.
ck it out at rjmc1927.jalbum.net
I have had trouble with this online software so some photos have gone to never never land.
take a look and post your response.
I've added lots more since then but not on line

When I went to http://rjmc1927.jalbum.net/I got this response: Sorry, the account does not exist.
Maybe you have spelled the account name wrong or perhaps the account has been closed.

I too would be interested in a '27 site. I am just about finished with my '25 Touring and I just brought home a barn find---1927 Landau Sedan. Biggest question I have is want can I do about finding a wood pattern for the skeleton---most everything is there, but the wood is almost all gone.

Hi, i am trying to view the album photos, but the site is indicating that the album account has expired.
I have a recently acquired a '27 Landau Sedan that needs restoring so would be very interested in viewing your photos. Thx.

I'm the one with all the 1927 pics. I had to shut down the site because it got too complicated to repeatedly, it kept erasing pics that were in the database.
I now have about 2000 pics. 200+ pges with about 10 pics per page
Im looking into Flicker to see if I can recreate my jalbum site.
I have a 27 4dr Landau that is days from being complete, just preserving this one, it has the original interior still. The other is a 27 coach, frame is powdercoated, most of the parts are ready to install, I did two of everything when I did the Landau. engine, trans, gen, starter, manifolds, front and rear end etc.
my hard copy album is by activity of the day but i placed each pic in a separate folder generator, brakes, head, water pump, etc , about two sub albums so now i can go do a chapter on each item, i took a pic as I found it, after removal, disassembled, cleaned, painted, reassembled and the reinstalled with a lot of detail of each step, should make a good guide when i get done.
if you need a specific pic PM me at rjmc1967@yahoo.com Im a member of the Colorado. Mile High VCAA chapter. Mary Ann Rossi is our pres.
thanks
