Here are pictures of the carb knobs on two original 1911 model year cars, a July and May car both with the two screw mount on the firewall. I can't speak explicitly for 1910 cars but my understanding is that the earlier knobs may have an undercut in them. The photos I am attaching are both flat on t...

Back to the top, let me know if you have something you think I can work with. I lost a taillamp to someone backing up in a parking lot.

Bttt

Let me know if you can help, thanks!

Thank you.

I should have been more clear, looking for one for a 1911 car. This is an all brass lamp, two tiers, and without the holes in the upper chimney.

Hi,

I am looking for a good quality, original tail light that doesn't need to be restored. Specifically looking for a E&J Patent 1908 tail lamp.

Please email me through the forum if you can help.

Thank you!

This guy is an imposter who goes by James. He sent photos from an eBay listing and claimed they were his and keeps trying to contact me.

Hi everyone, I'm looking to buy some good Hyatt roller bearings for use in my rear end rebuild for my Torpedo. If anyone has spares with tight cages and rollers hopefully pretty close to .500" please let me know. Ultimately would need a quantity of four but certainly willing to put together a piece ...

I had both a Rands and an Automatic ‘11 Torpedo windshield. The Automatic had the screws in place for the bumpers and the Rands had original bumpers intact. Here’s a picture of the Rands.[image][/image] Here is a photo of a late 1910 square tank Torpedo courtesy of the Detroit Public Library showing...

Andre,

I responded to your post last year on this with a few dimensions. https://www.mtfca.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=26704

Let me know if I can be of any other help with dimensions or anything else. I had detailed engineering drawings made for these brackets.

Back to the top, this is $15-$45 less what is seen online and the ride is free.

ahovey

FYI - threads for cap are different between the repro and originals.

bump to the top. These are great boards and ready to ship for FREE asap.

Hi, shoot me an email with any questions. I have a NOS i am going to install, but I can give you any dimensions you need. Austin

Does anyone know if both Rubes and Nonpariel produced the Torpedo horns. I think most of what I have seen only shows Rubes, but would be curious to hear otherwise.

ahovey

Check out some pictures, I believe they are solid ash.

Back to the top, they’re built to factory drawings

Have a set of new floorboards I purchased at Luray last year that I don’t need anymore. Made by Jonathan Anderson for an ‘11 Torpedo. Would like to get back what I paid for them, $210. Willing to ship domestically at my expense.

Feel free to reach out.

Thanks,
Austin

Back to the top, I will be at Luray.

I have brand new .502” kingpins and new bushings in the spindles so I don’t expect play there. I was told the axle would need new threads on the bottom, so that’s what I need to use the tool for. The potential bend in the axle is another issue.

ahovey

It’s an early, no ford script, T-202 axle going on an ‘11. The bend in the axle I believe makes it bow outwards slightly per the seller.

ahovey

Steve - not brave enough with a T that isn’t in alignment anyway. Robert - I primarily need to use the tool to replace the upper bushings and the threaded inserts. I would do it on a mill, but I don’t have the proper taper reamer and fear there is a risk of the two inserts not being concentric. I ha...

Jim, just sent you an email. The parts would help us get a car back on the road.

Hi, I am in the process of rebuilding my front axle and I wanted to see if anyone offered a repair service around NJ or had a Stevens front axle repair tool that I could potentially get access to.

Appreciate any help.

Sold $220,000.

Sorry for the wacky orientation but this should help. These are the dimensions from a likely repro bracket I have. Email me if you need anything, good luck!

ahovey

Thanks John and Rick, I will take a look inside as best I can and see if anything’s is binding and then try a dowel.

Someone mentioned to me that they could be potentially soldered in place. Is anyone else familiar with that?

Hi all, I am in the middle of a steering column rebuild for my ‘11 Torpedo and would like to ask for some help. I am disassembling an ‘13 column that wasn’t usable on the flange end but had a quadrant and gear case in great condition. I have drilled through the rivets passing through the quadrant in...

Correct me if I am wrong but I don’t believe they were ever supplied on Model Ts out of the factory. I have seen them on quite a few different brass cars, often luxury marques. At least on some Pierce Arrow’s I have seen them with plano convex lenses. The lense is flat on one side and convex on the ...
