Evening, Dan,
I think that did not include a 10% buyer’s premium nor the about 10% Tennessee sales tax. That would be an out the door total of about $7080 if my math is correct.

Morning, all,

Noticed that mention of copper tubing was made in text above.

My small local acetylene supplier warns against use of copper tubing with acetylene. It can produce copper acetylide which is unstable and dangerously explosive. Brass is okay.

Just sharing a concern.

Not to pull this way OT, but forgot to mention the fenders all around were replaced once upon a time with period accessory fenders. Note what I call an “outrigger” support (both sides). Neither look to be homemade. Still looking to figure who manufactured them. The dealership owner’s son in law ment...

Well, I felt someone was going to turn this into a string showing existing remaining early Ford dealerships, so it might as well be me.

Not to undercut Ken’s response, but I have a bent up piece of 3/8 inch x 2 inch wide strap that served as a mount for a kluged up electric taillight on my early ‘14 Runabout I recently picked up.

Afternoon, Jack,
I have a '22 Center Door. The door latch (or lock) is identical to your photos.
Best I can tell, mine are original to the car.
Would upload a photo, but, for some reason my iPad is reluctant to allow me to do so.

Best of luck with your rebuild.

Afternoon, Martin, My wife encouraged me (actually she insisted; turns out rightfully so) to buy a couple of these for the back of our '22 Center Door. The website follows. I purchased two of the F-263 Red with the 2x25 lb magnets for use on the car. The magnets supplied with the original unit are t...

Well, I recently purchased, for a very modest price off of Tbay, a 1922 Ford Manual for our 1922 Center Door.

On our '22 Center Door. Cost us 16 bucks, one time cost, to register the YOM tag in Alabama. Funny thing is the tag expiration is 12/31/9999! I hope the car is still around then, I know I won't be! Stay tuned, I recently received info on prior ownership of the car and will need help from you Forum f...

Is there any way to recover it by chance?
