I am trying to find out who this Glassic belongs to.

I also fixed up menu item # 12 below to add the Oprah item in with other celebrity stuff.

Speaking of the Album - another technical problem has arisen where new pictures are not adding properly. I will work on that over the holidays.

A link was added to the LINKS PAGE for a radiator vendor (includes "how to measure your radiator")

Do you know what THIS is? The only thing better than being in the Annex Hall of Fame for supporting the Annex website with a cash (or PayPal) donation -- is getting gold stars for donating more than once!  On behalf  of myself and all the people who enjoy the website, thank you Roy McDaniel for your repeat donations to the site.

A technical item has been added - a direct replacement fit for a 1978 steering column. Info here.

DONATION RECEIVED -- Rick Potter has earned yet another star in the Hall of Fame for his cash donation  via Pay Pal in support of the website.  Thank you Rick, it means a lot, especially in these rough economic times!

I am experiencing "technical difficulties" with the PHOTO ALBUM, but it seems to be working for now. The problem is with adding new pictures to it.

I wrote up my transmission discovery on my 1973 and put it in the tech section. Just an interesting issue that came up that may or may not apply to other 1973 or so cars.

I added a bunch of decent under hood "before" reference pictures of my 1973 Phaeton #689 to the album as I prepare to add some chrome and rust-remover to the engine compartment. Select "original" size (upper right of picture screen)  for largest views.

STACEY has been added to the coveted  Annex Hall of Fame for her kind cash donation to support the website. Thanks Stacey!

I FINALLY more or less finished my fiberglass top project for car 689.

I added a place on the form to register a new Glassic for the owner to declare it as FOR SALE. -- an email to  GlassicAnnex@aol.com - also works for cars that are already on the owners list.

CAR PRODUCTION QUANTITIES - I could not find this on my own website, so I cleaned up two pages of interest: the HISTORY page and the CHANGES BY YEAR page, and also added entries in the tech section and index, so you can find that info.

Budget figures - I added a list of the annual costs of this website to the ABOUT page, along with a status statement on donations.

NOTE -- someone reported being unable to get PayPal to work right to make a donation to the website. Please let me know if you try, but fail, to send a donation using the link just below the "Hall of Fame" on the ABOUT page.

A new FL owner for Roadster # 709 on owners list page 2 along with some great new pics in the Album

TIP: By the way, I noticed (after all these years) that if you view the first picture in an album page, and click on the full sized picture, the program jumps to the next picture automatically.

FL Roadster # 1046 is now for sale - see owners list page 2

New Nebraska owner for Phaeton #730 on owners list page 2
Also, a new Ark. owner for Phaeton #832 on  owners list page 2

New VA owner posted for bright yellow Phaeton 860 on owners list page 2, along with a picture for the photo album

Oklahoma Phaeton # 333, which had been offered on Craigs list before, is now on eBay. The Annexmaster suggests that you disregard the descriptive info provided for that car as it is "factually challenged"

I updated the page on Used Glassic Values to reflect what I have seen in the year 2010. Send YOUR thoughts on the subject to the email address above.

New AUSTRALIA owner for car 1308 posted. See her import story in car tales

Also, another experience suggesting that changing from a Glassic grill shell to a real Model A reproduction shell is not a simple process was added to Change to metal

Corrected an oversight on the HATS page. Free postage is now specified for USA mailing addresses only.

I also STARTED a discussion of rear ends on the tech page - and included one example where changing rear end gear ratios improved handling in a 4 cyl to V-8 conversion. email me at the above address to add your contributions to this subject.

Added a couple of new links on the LINKS PAGE - at the request of the merchants.

Added a few more pics from the EBAY LISTING for Michigan Roadster # 819

Car 252 changed owners within the Crozier family, along with some new pictures. Check the album and look at the top left picture, then look at my enlargement right below it.  BAD DOGGIE!

Photo Album - Appears to be working ok now. The view counts all ended up re-set to 0 but at least it is updating like it is supposed to. I will eventually change the main picture that shows up for each folder -- they got re-set to alphabetic, where before I had selected ones that were  "interesting" or "typical"

I will continue to try to restore the comments, and hope that the rest of the album is now stable.

The PHOTO ALBUM is still having some settings problems. It works fine most of the time, but gets very slow on a recurring basis. When it gets "off" I have figured out how to fix it, but have not yet figured out how to get it to stop mis-behaving in the first place.

The photo album continues to run, but very slowly. No response received yet from support people. Also, I cannot add new photos until the problem is fixed, or I change to a new program to display the pictures.

PHOTO ALBUM - Support people responded, changed some settings -- the albums should be working fine now. Please send me an email if you find any problems (email address is in the box above)

New South Carolina Phaeton # 549 added to owners list page 2
South Dakota Roadster # 1194 is now for sale. see owners list page 2 -- asking price was added later in the day.
MI Phaeton owner of car #141 -- has new email address on owners list page 1

I will be responding to emails as I am able -- and that somewhat depends on how hard the album problem is to solve.     Don

ALSO, our internet service host changed something internally this last week and the photo album has been extremely slow to load. Hopefully this will correct itself automatically soon.

At the same time, your Annexmaster (that's me) will have extremely limited access to my own computer until the end of this month, so email responses and updates will be spotty at best.

Added a few pics of my own car, #689 as it arrived at its final home. Now if I only can get some time to work on it, or even drive it around.

Car 739 changed to not for sale. The Annexmaster finally got his car # 689 home -- address changed.  Also a new MS owner for car # 629 these 3 changes are on owners list page 2.
Here is an Annex feature that has not been used much lately: Yellow square menu item  10  on the at the bottom of the left column on the main Annex page, is for upcoming cruises that may be of interest to Glassic owners. A new entry has been added.

And a great TIP received last month that I finally posted. Why his car would quit running.

Your Annexmaster has been very bad on updates the last month or two, since moving to California and buying a total fixer-upper house. Long hours of dirty work will result in us moving in by mid-January, after which things should settle down a bit. Meanwhile, I apologize for my slow response times.

Added a tidbit of info about the origin of the top frames on Glassics

Rick Potter made a donation to the website after selling a part through the Annex. That is Rick's second donation, earning him "gold star" status in the Hall of Fame. Thanks, Rick.

Began the webpage after purchasing my Glassic
