I have a '19 body that's partially complete -- some pieces are missing.

Where can I find an itemized list of parts for the Model T roadster body?

Parts and Price Book For Body Parts

Vendors sell nice reprints of this book.

David,

I'm catching up and reading some of the forum posting I missed. Something to remember when you are working on the open Ts before the high cowl 1924 models were introduced is that the bodies were made by several different body companies. And in some cases the panels interchange ok and in others they do not interchange well. Ref: http://www.mtfca.com/encyclo/doc15.htm which states:
JUN 26, 1915 Factory Letter
"Hereafter when ordering body panels for 1915 cars, please give both the car and body numbers. The body number will be found on the right sill just inside the front door. This number will be preceded by a letter which indicates by whom the body was made.
"The above information is necessary as panels for bodies made by our various suppliers vary somewhat."

Additionally during 1918-1919 some but not necessarily all of the body makers went back to the previous wooden seat frames (for sure on the touring and from memory [not as good as looking at the Price List of Body Parts] and I think on the runabouts also. ) So in the case of my Dec 1917 Fisher body touring that has the wooden seat frames the seat riser for the metal seat frame 1916 or 1920 Fisher body will not work nicely on my 1918 model year style body.

Also be advised that many of the panels look very similar for 1915-1925 but they do not necessarily interchange correctly. I.e. you could use a wide arm rest panel on one side and a narrow arm rest panel on the other side. It would probably fit ok but look strange.
And I would suggest ordering Bruce McCalley’s “Model T Comprehensive Encyclopedia” which contains all the Price List of Parts catalogs from 1909 to 1927 and lots of other information. See: http://www.mtfca.com/discus/messages/331880/333725.html?1357665853 for ordering information. Or if you only want the single Price List of Parts that addresses your question, I would suggest Lang’s http://www.modeltford.com/item/T10.aspx or http://www.modeltford.com/item/T9.aspx which cover the body parts. The regular Price List of Parts does not cover the body parts.
Good luck with your project. And if your body has a body number, please let us know.

Respectfully submitted,

Hap l9l5 Cut off
