I haven't seen Hap Tucker on here lately is he OK or just too busy to post? His knowledge of Model T's is greatly appreciated.

Years ago when I worked in a tire shop we used rubber cement, spread it around the patch area and lit it. We would let it burn for a short time then blow it out but while it was still hot we would apply the patch and clamp it tight.

I thought they said on TV that if your lift is stuck in the up position for more then 4 hours go see a doctor!

The tongue sandwich at Ernie's with boot black dressing is fantastic if you wash it down with a pint of Happy Sally

perry kete

Your paintings are just fabulous. I could look at them all day.

I did try to look at them all day once but Patty got mad at me for not mowing the yard!

The director of the institute often times made fun of Kalamity Dicks inventions until he saw the Konvert - O - Boot machine and saw how it helped the bowlegged folks in town. He said he felt like such a heel with no sole. Many of the left over tongues were sent to Ernie's for the luncheon special of...

perry kete

Where did Ernie Go

He went in the outhouse like everyone else!

perry kete

OK Terry you're making me up the anti so it's now two boxes of Twinkies and a bag and a half of M&M's ... (I already opened one bag, who can resist M&M"s)

perry kete

Rich,

I am wondering how you can still get your lever up ? Did you use just heat?

perry kete

My mind is dizzy as I went to the flea market and found so many assorted items I don't know if I'll have enough garage space!
If I find more miscellaneous car parts at the flea market I may explode!

perry kete

I would love to visit his shop he is so amazing with everything he makes, from wagons to wagon wheels. I am in ah

Thanks for posting

perry kete

THAT CAR IS BEAUTIFUL! I can't wait until you drive it over to my place to give me a ride!

It is amazing what guys will do for a box of Twinkies and a bag of M&M's

perry kete

GOOD heavens Susan you need to spell private message out in your title! I don't need to read about PMS on the forum too!

perry kete

How early would this car be

Judging from the direction of the sun and th amount of daylight i would guess 7:30 am

perry kete

Old Marines didn't need engines... the sergeant kept them moving!

perry kete

My condolences to the family.

I am looking for information on the "Assorted Car Company" and when and where they were made. I make this requested because I so often see in the classified section of this forum "Assorted Car parts for sale" and I figured if so many assorted car parts are available that I may as well find a car and...

perry kete

Such a great looking family in a nice looking Model T. I hope others will post their family in a Model T on here also.

perry kete

That is one Model T that DOES need a water pump!

perry kete

The little boys just loved the little girls with mustaches because when they stole a kiss from them it tickled their fancy!

perry kete

That lion looks like one on many family crests, perhaps they had the lion custom made to match their family crest.

Another way to look at it is if you use it you'll have the first known automotive "bug shield"

P E R R Y M A S O N I don't see any T's in P E R R Y M A S O N !

I usually have my wife talk into the gas tank or container I'm trying to dry out ...she's so full of hot air it only takes about 10 minutes to dry

perry kete

This is a neat photo from the past. In the upper left side of the picture it looks like a water tower with a spout for trains.

perry kete

The little pocket idea is a nice addition to keep track of personal items in the car. It looks to be the perfect size to hold a pack of TWINKIES!

perry kete

I think they were used to keep flys off the fruit!

perry kete

That attitude will change once you meet me!

perry kete

Wow! what a great way to honor your Father. How do I purchase one of the books?

My Father served in the Army Air Corps 8th.

perry kete

How do you date a TT?

I usually buy it flowers and take it to dinner!

Oh come on now you that was coming!

perry kete

I believe the baffle is installed in the radiator to help the water circulate across all the tubes. It may not cool properly without it.

perry kete

That gear looks very much like the one that KD designed for the syrup pump used at the syrup well head he and his team developed to supply enough syrup for regatta and the races when they served the famous flapjacks . They drilled many test wells before they struck sweet gold.

perry kete

Unless you have firm authenticated documentation that a celebrity owned the car it will add no value to the car or purchase price.

perry kete

Glad to hear that the museum is open again and Rich's paintings look fantastic. Thank you Rich for sharing your talent with our hobby.

perry kete

I think Dallas posted this camper on here before.

Congratulations Rich and Joy on 42 years together. Keep the sparks flying

perry kete

That is a great idea...but using all your wife's cake pans means no more birthday cakes for you!

perry kete

It's funny you mentioned open toad slippers Burger, I had a pair and they were great when you wanted to Hop out of bed in the morning. The only downfall was keeping them hopping in unison. I don't remember how many times I did splits and hit my head on the dresser!

perry kete

Trapezoid pie was a favorite of many of the psychic readers

perry kete

This car is beautiful and the workmanship is fantastic it not only needs to be on the cover of "Vintage Ford Magazine" but the centerfold and a main story following the rebuild.
Congratulations on your beautiful car.

perry kete

WOW! that looks fantastic! ... But did you have it Scotch Guarded in case I drop my ice cream?

perry kete

That seat is very well done and looks great.
It's almost big enough to fit my butt while YOU chauffeur me around from ice cream stand to ice cream stand! We can get ice cream with M&M's mixed in!

perry kete

Are cork rolls good with coffee?

perry kete

HAPPY BIRTHDAY US ARMY! FLAG DAY!

perry kete

My tank in my '22 Coupe is held in like your first picture

perry kete

Hey Parakeet plucker ... Looks like you finally got a handle on your project!

Oh and by the way their is a Centerdoor for sale in the classifieds!

perry kete

It is beautiful STAINS and all!

perry kete

WOW! I would have bet a jumbo bag of M&M"s that I would have been thrown under the bus by now for the comment that the interior was 1/1000 ths of an inch off center. Are you awake or still taking your afternoon nap?

Are those Twinkie cake crumbs on the seat?

perry kete

MY parakeet is missing.. I she under your hood?

perry kete

WOW! all this beautiful work and NO chocolate stains on the material you get an atta boy!

I did notice that the pattern by the firewall is 1/1000 of an inch off center so now you need to rip the entire interior out and start all over!

perry kete

I also believe that "Lulu" was once the centerfold for the "Better Farms and Barns" magazine and a cover girl for "Mechanics Monthly"

perry kete

If the only thing you changed is the sediment bowl then you may have bent or altered the float in the bowl. That would change your fuel flow

perry kete

AW Crap! I already sent you $10,000 as requested by your e-mail. Please write me a replacement check as soon as you can and send it to me.

perry kete

WOW! BEAUTIFUL!

The covered bridge festival was cancelled this year too, as was the Walleye and Wine festival, Grape Jamboree, and several other events.

perry kete

Mark,
That was very nice of you to help the damsel in distress who needed a ride. You will talk about that to the end of time. I hope that someday I'll be able to help someone too.

Now about those stock tips!

perry kete

Joe, I'll be in contact with you off line at some point to see what I can do to make something happen. I've never done anything like that but I'm not afraid to try it. The most that can happen is that everyone would have a terrible time and hate me. I would need a lot of guidance. What date would we...

perry kete

Hells Bells it ain't nothing more then a postage stamp to send a battery cap.
I'll put it in tomorrows mail and hopefully it will work for you.

Perhaps sometime we could host the Ohio Jamboree in Ashtabula County and visit the longest covered bridge in the USA at 613 feet. Many covered bridges to see and other places of interest.

perry kete

Have any up dated picture to share? I am in love with this car and I am in awe of your talents. I can't even color in a coloring book and stay in the lines and here you are sewing the interior. I would like to try sewing sometime but I'm not brave enough. The car is almost as shinny as my head!

perry kete

Do you still need the cap?

perry kete

I sent you an e-mail. Check your in box. I have a cap I'll send

I cut my own hair all the time...of course I only have to run the clippers down each side because I have nothing in the middle!

perry kete

Rich, When I see your homemade ads to jive with what the current thread drift is I often wonder how many of them will show up in someone's history report on antique auto accessories as actual vendor ads. I can see it now, someone getting into a fight defending their report because they found the ad ...

You may want to try soaking new shinny tacks in vinegar over night or in a mild acid solution to make them looked aged and then neutralize the acid with a soda solution. You could scuff them with a wire brush.

I broke the bead on a tire that had been mounted forever and the rubber was hard by chucking it my bench top vise. I placed the tire in the vise until the rim was at the edge of the jaws, then tightened the vise and pinched the old tire together, and once it was secure I rocked the rim back and fort...

I think in the past postings several folks wrote about using some type of epoxy that you would mix and apply and it was stronger then the wood itself. When they applied it they could sand it, drill it, paint it etc. Looked like good stuff . I don't know how to add links but I went to Google and in t...

In the posting "What have you done to your T in April" you will see a post from Neil W. and how he and a small group set his body on the frame by lifting it up and walking it forward.

On the farm we would butcher 50-60 chickens at a time and we always had 5 gallon buckets that we would drop the chicken down into to keep them from running around after you axed them.
