Re: Morton and Brett speedster build
First try at the front valence panel. Working on putting the beaded edge on a long curve. The original has an additional 3 folds to create a vertical lip which the bottom of the hood can be secured against. May try that on the next attempt. Who knew adult origami was this much fun.

Re: WTB - Laurel style front axle drop brackets
Evening, I'd consider a set. Tried a gentleman on eBay that makes lots of neat bits, including these. Thanks! I'm working with someone, goal is to make a "one box kit" bolt on L/R lowering bracket set. Curious about what the market will bear for such a thing and if there is any interest in the produ...

Evening, is this still leaned up against a wall? Seems odd that it hasn't been snapped up.

Re: Morton and Brett Radiator
Possibly? The fronts are extremely decayed, the rears much less so. Break down won't start for a few weeks. But they certainly look like those. Hello Doug, Does your car have These Lima Co brackets on it? Also found a period photo of a possible Morton Brett radiator car with the Lima Co brackets on ...

Re: Morton and Brett Radiator
That is stunningly nice. Would you have a side profile of the radiator? Interested in the the top side profile. Is it rounded or a flat slope back? Thank you.

Thanks Ed, the chassis is pre '26/27, engine and rear are '26/27. Have a complete '16 that is going into the speedster.

Thoughts? The cowl is why I think it is Morton and Brett, even though the tail looks Faultless.

Morton and Brett speedster build
Picked up what I think is a Morton and Brett speedster. Does anyone have a Morton and Brett radiator? Been reading, seems there was a run of Polyform bodies made years back, and there may have also been a run of radiator shells made? Does anyone have any pictures they could share? Were the shells ma...

Re: WTB - model T wheels between Lynchburg VA and Jackson TN
Morning Bob, Just looking for 4 wheels to roll a chassis off a trailer, don't even need tires, or all the spokes. Car was put on the trailer with a fork lift. Thanks! What size do you need? 30x3.5, 30x3, or 21s? If you don't know what size you need maybe post a picture of the car or what year it is.

Thank you George, this is to go on my fathers bitsa he built in the late 50's as a kid. You can deflect the fronts with a bit of knee. It is a glorious collection of parts.

Thank you Dan, I will reach out and see if Bill is still making the tappets. The 292/Y block tappet foot is 1" diameter- pretty much the same as the aftermarket T adjustable tappets. Your cam guy should be able to find a profile that will work with the 1" follower diameter. John is correct, Bill Sti...
