Here are some pictures. You can see the scalloped mounting bracket, also the 90 degree elbow that screws on instead of the straight tube used previously. The 1915 bracket is different than previous years as well. There is a brass tube not pictured that covers the reed and holds the bulb.

Corey Walker

i think I read that is to prevent the front crossmember from cracking because the newer spring mounting is too flexible and it makes a stress point. I found this one on a chassis I bought years ago.

I don’t get enough of them to remember but I thought the odd one was the swayback with the vent.

I’ve noticed that NH’s all have the ID tag, regardless if it’s a Holley or Ford tag, or a Model F, the tag where that if you are holding the carburetor in your hand it is legible right side up but the Kingstons are always upside down do that you can read them while standing over it with it installed...

I had a clamp screw break in my 14 and it damaged one of the longer style clamps so I put an ad in the classifieds for one along with this picture. Somebody noticed the later mag ring and gave me a reason as to why it would work, just not as exactly intended. I replaced the longer style with the lat...

I’ve found that it’s messy trying to drink in a T because it bounces your drink right out of it’s container. I do have one of these generic drink holders that’s also good for storage. I thought my head gasket blew at the rear one day until i realized my spare carburetor fuel line had punctured a ful...

The 1913 Holley S was similar but the pick up tube was soldered to the mixing chamber cover and the holes for the gas to flow were machined to line up for gas flow. The air bleed, which also served as an overflow drain, was a hole drilled from the bottom on both the G and S.

Corey Walker

It was the same principle but required a lot more machining and parts. The G for example has a pick up tube that originates in the pool of gas in the depression of the jet then screws to a fitting allowing the gasoline to pass from the mixing chamber to a passage drilled to the carburetor throat. Th...

Those passages are for the gasoline to flow through at idle when the throttle butterfly is partially closed. Fuel is drawn from the mixing chamber and it flows through the passages until it exits inside the throat of the carburetor via the 2 holes. As the throttle is opened more air flows through th...

#8 is from a Kingston L2 carburetor. Holley G had an offset at the bottom and was put together a bit different.

I meant 2 1/2- 1 swivel. I think I need a 58 tooth gear for 21” wheels. I’ve got Model A wheels on an Overland axle with a T frame so I can make any gear fit. I just happened to have the one already.

Corey Walker

I’m building a speedster and have a cut off Overland touring body that this speedometer fits perfectly in a factory hole. I was wondering if this gear, 60 tooth 8 pitch, would be the correct gear used with a 1 1/2 to 1 swivel? If not which gear do I need?

If Spots won’t polish out I sand them as you said with fine sandpaper then use a buffer-polisher.

Here is a picture I took about a year ago of parts I took out of a Simmons compared with the same new NH parts. The seat body is .030” longer, but I can’t say if it was original. It probably was. Then a picture of a Simmons with a new NH seat with only one gasket. It worked fine.

Ok. It’s interesting to me the variety of things different companies made. I’ve got a couple International trucks, 1947 & 1973, but the also had International Harvester refrigerators. I thinks Standard Speedometer also made the Standard horns.

Corey Walker

I walked into a shop to get a hydraulic hose made and the first thing I noticed when I walked in was the Johns-Manville insulation. I wonder if it is the same company that made speedometers?

It seems like I read once the V was supposed to face down to deflect oil to the bands. This one has the V down and it also has strips embossed between bolt holes to help the gasket seal which go down into the gasket. Mine has only a flat plate.

Corey Walker

Somebody on another forum had mentioned using old Chevrolet truck doors for patch panels. They work well for the bottom of the body because they have a brake line in them already but not quite 90*, and the metal is slightly curved already. I know this isn’t a T body but it’s similar. The back doors ...

Aren’t the contacts in the original Ford coil boxes made from phosphor bronze? I know the repop ones are copper plated steel and loose their springiness.

I found this in a bucket of junk and couldn’t figure out what it was until I saw this ad.

The taller float came out in 1926 when they switched to the gas tank in the cowl.

Corey Walker

The taper leaf rear spring with a curled leaf for the spring clip attached to to the frame, along with the 1914 rear fenders would make me think it is the remnants of what was once a car or a start at building that year model from parts. The frame appears to have the holes on top for the 1914 firewa...

Corey Walker

I’m not sure what year this head is from but I put it on my 14 since it had a high head when I got it. I don’t know how to look up old threads but it seems like the 1913 heads have Made in USA and square marks, something about the way the metal was poured into the mold and later heads had the round ...

This may be a long shot depending on how old your distributor is. I have a 1947 Hudson and a lot of times it wouldn’t start with the starter, sometimes it would and sometimes after I’d remove the cap and mess with the points it would start but it always started when pulled. I realized that there was...

I don’t do well at buying T parts to flip because I want to keep them once I get them.

I did get this c...

I thought I’d finish disassembling this 1920 block this morning and the front cam bearing set screw looked like part of it was broken off. I then found a ball bearing inside to hold the bearing. I’ve never seen that before. I suppose that it was a fix from not having another screw but I don’t know h...

I think these Coker tires from the mid 1990’s were the correct size.

Corey Walker

I bought this one about 7 years ago, 30X3. It’s the same height as the 30X3 1/2 Firestones, 30 1/2” tall. The Firestone is bald is why it’s a little shorter.

Corey Walker

I guess the cast iron ones must have came out some time before 1919, sometime in 1918 maybe, because there is a single choke arm version in cast iron. It’s more rounded and bulkier than the brass choke arm. That’s probably when the spray needles changed also from the brass T top that’s treaded on an...

I’d think that the factory would keep the body and top made from the same materials but I’ve seen all sorts of combinations. You never know what was changed by owners through the years or maybe they came that way during the transition from brass to steel. I’m sure they just wanted it to run regardle...

Here are some pictures of a chassis I bought several years ago somebody put A wheels on. They used A hubs in the front as well. It had a motor on it so I guess they drove it with that set up. They wouldn’t have made it much farther because the rear axle nut is cracked.

The speedometer on my 14 reads fast as well. It has the correct gearing for a Stewart Model 100. If you put a different gear to make the chain spin slower then it seems like it would mess up the odometer reading, or at least in my case I think the problem is with the speedometer head. The mileage ch...
