Re: 1930 Lockwood Chief Revival

[PM T2]

Indeed they did sell a kit to convert the 1928 Chief with above water exhaust over to a "Silent" Chief.

Your motor has the 1928 style tiller handle/throttle control as well as the ’28 carburetor. If its identified on the rope plate as an "82B" that should clinch it as a 1928 motor with the Silent Chief upgrade..

The 1929’s and 30’s were just ID’d as model "B".

BTW I see your drip tray is not cracked, chipped, or broken. Excellent. Try and keep it that way.

Hope it helps.
