The Missouri Museum of Military History is located adjacent to the Headquarters of the Missouri National Guard just east of Jefferson City, MO.  On the outside is a fine collection of tanks and aircraft.


Inside is a collection of artifacts showing the history of the Missouri National Guard.  Of interest to those interested in Delco-Remy history is the1927 Chrysler staff car in the back of the museum.


The car was discovered at Camp Clark in Nevada, MO, and restored for display in the museum.




The Delco-Remy distributor and DC generator can easily be seen by visitors looking at the engine.


The Delco-Remy Distributor is Model Number 659B, and Serial Number 42396.  Note that the DR Tag shows that the distributor was built during the limited time that DR Anderson controlled the former Dayton Laboratories in Dayton, OH.  In 1929 the Dayton plant became Delco Products Division of GM.


According to the curator of the museum, the vehicle has a second DC generator on the other side of the engine.


The generator is Delco-Remy Model Number 949L and Serial Number 127414.  Note that his also has Dayton, OH on the DR Tag.
 

The inside of the staff car is an excellent restoration.
