I'm glad you found the missing piece you need to complete this car and it looks fanTasTic. I know you'll be excited to learn that someone has a Centerdoor (in pieces) for sale in the classified section. So hurry and get your butt in gear and get this one done so you can buy the other one! Stop eatin...

Very nice Model T and you got it out just in time for the next spring snow storm!

perry kete

Looks like something my dentist has and would use!

perry kete

All I can say is WOW! If i lived closer I would droll on this car in person but since I don't I droll on my computer screen and for some reason it keeps shorting out!

Beautiful car with fantastic craftsmenship

The river ferry comment was ment as a joke

The building and sign look very nice and if you want to center the light just hold it still and slide the building over!

I see Floyd is in the picture with his older sisters bicycle. She gave him her bike after her recent arrest. She was known as a "lady of the evening" and would ride her bicycle from one engagement to the other and the police decided to put a stop to her adventures and arrested her on her bicycle one...

My father used to always say "When it gets too tuff for everyone else it's just right for 'ol Harry!" That my friends has helped me get through some very tuff times!

Linus,

I have these camping stove lighters, lantern lighters, fire starters, cigar lighters I could probably part with IF we can agree on the price!

perry kete

I may be mistaken but I thought all the bikers came into town for the big fire sale at the auto co. They said he had some hot deals going.

DARN - IT! I told you only two cars on the river ferry at a time!

The lard ball chip dip served in the turtle half shell was always a big hit during happy hour. Everyone also wondered why it was known as happy hour when no one would laugh or even smile.

Small communities if they are affected or not often time have to follow the county, state, and federal guidelines and rulings or lose grants and funding. That is one way the big dog controls the little guy. Do as we tell you or you get no money.

I pulled this off of the forum a while ago and I'm not sure but I think Mr. Jelf posted it.

Well the good thing about saving and collecting old stuff is that I still have my stash of Sears & Robuck Catalogs as a back-up!

Why would anyone feed a horse prunes and then hook it to the front of a car to pull it!

Wolburnook kept his goats out of everyone's reach so they couldn't take his goats and make the desert for themselves.

Sorry Keith,

I reviewed the post only to see you were asking about young and old pictures of you with your Model T. I don't have any of my cars and I together in a photo but that is probably best in case someone were to look at this post during meal time.

Thanks for the humor we can sure use it in this country right now. I have a brother-in-law that could probably have done that in his younger days.

About 4 miles from me is an old shop with the main drive line that all the equipment ran off of on leather belts and pulleys. Bread pan oil catchers hung from the ceiling under the gears on the shaft to catch the oil drippings. This shop was used until Fred passed away 10 years ago. Fred was a kind ...

Well when I talked to the local Amish men here about having one of their wives do some cleaning for me a couple of them offered me two chickens, a lamb, and a milk cow if I would keep her! :shock: I figured I would just spring clean the house myself!

Dallas,

Where did you buy that truck load of Amish women?

perry kete

You are right when all else fails and is caving in around us it is nice to remember the fun we've had with our cars! Keep your chin up everyone this too will pass.

perry kete

Jonathan,

Did you buy the TT ? I think the asking price of $2500 is very fair. If you decide you don't want it please send me a message because I would be interested in it.

The AACA Western Reserve Chapter annual swap meet scheduled for March 28th at the Ashtabula County Fair Grounds has been cancelled due to the virus. This is not a large meet but a fun meet and gathering of car folks. They usually fill the 60 ft x 175 ft building along with outdoor spots.

Looks like the Coupe is missing a rear fender when you enlarge the picture.

perry kete

That would be great IF this shutdown stops in time. They are now predicting 18 months till the virus passes. That may interfere with Hershey and the OCF this year but I hope not.

Don, What holds your windows up? I have a '22 Coupe and the two rear side window have rollers on them too but the rollers were mounted to a tension spring that pushed the rubber roller against the glass. The pull strap doesn't hold the window in place and I'm having a tough time keeping spring tensi...

Thanks Frank for posting my friend Barbie as I always viewed her like this

Thanks for the offer to post pictures. Would please post one of Barbie Benton when she was the centerfold of Playboy!

To the dismay of many I've been on the forum since around 2001 - 2002.
It has been a great asset to the hobby and a big help to an airhead like me. I too miss many of those who are no longer with us and enjoy ribbing those that are still here.

I noticed on the forum under many posts we now have a hacker named ALARD TIHA from Algeria. He is making comments from events from several months ago and is posting others members footer comments and sayings in the postings
I hope he can be stopped soon.

That looks great but I don't know why you went to all the trouble when the catalog has them for $67.50!

That's right hand washing is important ... I wash my hands once a week if they need it or not!

Steve,

The reason I switched to quality drill bit stock is when I redid my motor the pins I bought from a supplier lasted only about a month until I had to replace them. Some were bent and other broke. If I remember the suppliers were having an issue with the manufacture at the time.

perry kete

Great truck picture. I bet the tarp weighs as much as the truck! I hope it doesn't blow off when he winds the truck up into high gear!

perry kete

Many great old photos! Thanks for sharing

perry kete

Steve I have used drill bit ends for valve pins and they work very well. In a pinch I cut off the end of bits that I use every day and now they are just little shorter. I put them in a vise and placed a white rag directly under it on the bench and the small pin falls on the rag. A dremel tool works ...

Stan,

I would be willing to put up a little cash to help cover the cost of the photos for the museum if they are interested in hanging them up. I just think that is one way to let people see the different carburetors and I haven't seen any better carburetor pictures then what you post.

perry kete

THANKS MARK FOR TAKING THE REINS NOW QUIT READING THE FORUM AND GET THAT PRODUCTION LINE GOING!

THANKS GLENN FOR ALL YOU HAVE DONE AND I HOPE YOU DO GET TO ENJOY YOUR SECOND RETIREMENT AND WORK ON YOUR CARS.

perry kete

Tony,
I guess in one way or the other you took the picture!

perry kete

Stan,

I think that perhaps those photos of your carburetors should be framed and hung in the Model T Museum so people who visit can see all the different types and see your works of art. They would look good in the library too.

Rustoleum makes a "galvanoleum" spray that is a galvanized finish to it and it looks very close to hot dip galvanized when it dries. I've used it and like it but everyone has their own ideas on how something should look when finished.

What happens next to the top? Is it just painted to match the car or do you add the long grain cobra product on top of your fiberglass?
