Does the handle, pictured in your left hand, turn ?

I would think not.

He has 2 TT wrenches. With the hex holes behind the 15/16” spark plug open end.

I’m with Tim. A 1915 due to the brass headlamp and cowllamp rims.

Glad you enjoyed it John. This was my disappointing
“”totality”” in south central Texas. Wanted to do a little acetylene lighting but heavy cloud cover..No temp drop. No turkeys gobbling. No turtles mating

Will sacrifice the powdercoated steering wheel spiders for $75 each and 3rd one for $55….

Howdy Bert, … Loved the history and provenance of your family’s acquisition of your touring ! Do you know my Model T friend Don Vagaske there in Tucson? Hes real friendly and might be helpful. Anyway, welcome to the crazy fun of these wonderful old cars. Questions ??
Ask away !!

Then how about $55 + mailing ?

Then how about $34 + actual mailing ?

Refrain from emu oil….

Just found! In private stash : another cast/forged steering wheel spider - without the powdercoat treatment.
So, only $55 + USPS medium flat rate. This also has double keyways.

No rust on either gears. In deference to my Forum Friends, this is only ***btt*** until this ad falls into obscurity

And if its 1909 - $3500…1923-25 =$550

…with brackets. Langs lists new at $360 for 1913-1920 w/o mounting brackets. This is only $100 + new repop gas cap. It has solder repair but I sacrificed 2 gallons of gas in it without a leak. Recommend interior sealing. Local pick up only. gwhouse731(at)gmail(dot)com

Dress up your rear discolored isinglass like this:

Thank you… Joyous Resurrection Day to all !!

Only $55 plus USPS Medium Flat Rate Box

…for touring and roadsters. All small machine screws and nuts are there. Will need minor straightening. Only $34 plus the ride. gwhouse731(at)gmail(dot)com

You mean like these ???

Sandblasted and powdercoated glossy black. All 4 ‘arms’ rest evenly on flat surface. Top steering wheel spider has 2 internal keyways opposite each other. Only $75 each + USPS small flat rate box for either or both. 12.5”+- center to center opposite ‘arms’
gwhouse731(at)gmail(dot)com

Really Nice condition. I have them in both 1914s and they’re not loud. Designed for pre generator Fords.
Only $90 pr. + USPS small flat rate box.

Thats a great illustration of how Model T occupants stayed dry in a rainstorm but how did they keep their coil box from shorting out ?….. Beautiful touring Tom

Maybe this’ll help :

I think that rig in picture # 10 is solely for the pulley on the transmission to the left. In a sense, it’s a 20 HP mobile stationary engine. I have a real stationary 5 HP Stover that weighs 1500 lbs. !! Try moving it around to different harvests

Oh…OK….that do look like fun in a Model T… until a container ship hits one of those towers. God forbid

For those of us clueless, shoeless Southerners; what is a “Mighty Mac”??…. picture ?….. extra large hamburger ???

I’m amazed at the number of Model Ts in the pictures Tom posts that have the Firestone style 5 lug demountable rims. Theres 3 just in this thread !! I know several will chime in and say they have a set but I’ve not seen any since I’ve been touring..

AACA Class 22A: “Commercial vehicles. Load class under 1 ton. Thru 1927”

Thank you Frank !.. You’ve dug up some excellent advice ! I’ve even had that question. Including fastening back together a broken Fordite rim. Now to put your good advice to work

Yes. Cute as a bug 1914 T. But how can a cut down touring with a homemade truck bed receive an AACA Senior National First ?

Can’t help John but would this do in the interim ?
….george

Nope. The ‘26-‘27 Tudor in picture # 10 doesn’t have a ‘flare’ toward the rear of the splash apron. This flare was discontinued around 1914 when Model Ts were narrower but it was meant for rear radius rod clearance. There is a vertical appearing fastener in that picture securing an unknown object to...

Good idea John. As costs for all essentials have steadily risen, has the demand for swap meet capable venues also risen ? I think not. And I believe the most essential ingredient is a negotiator whose read - or even wrote - ‘The Art of the Deal’. Yes, I remember the heyday of March Chickasha when Jo...

Rec’d 2 emails this item. sale on hold

Picture #2 shows us another brass T without a hand crank. Wonder why??…Any idea where the first picture was taken ? I see 2 pyramids and a camel

intriguing body style too. Not a town car…

Dennis, you have me confused. I believed headlamp forks were similar from ‘11-‘14 but in early ‘15 head’lamps’ became head’lights’ and were fastened to fender irons by a ‘stem’. Are you looking for headlamp forks for carbide headlamps ?

Got it James. I’m going to another property after church today and will pick up the errant left fender for surgery…

Nice display ! Thanks for sharing it and promoting our hobby

Hes located in Spokane, WA

SPOKEN FOR !! Thank you Mike Noe and MTFCA

Spoken for pending $$ receipt. Thank you Roger and MTFCA

Here your are, Pat. They’re on Tbay now for only $1,985

…. You shudda posted a WTB earlier. I sold a restored set of TX 1927 plates for $125.

You might say expensive - but they’re rare ! License plate collectors will say TX issued plates in 1923 weren’t dated. But the ‘D’ on these plates is the clue. They’re Dealer plates ! And restored with no additional holes. Only $425 + free delivery in lower 48 states…. gwhouse731(at)gmail(dot)com An...

Well, if he can’t find a loose DRIV…er, ah; I mean left side bracket; contact me. I have a junk, non restorable left fender and a hand grinder

Good choice Wayne ! Beautiful ‘18 runabout. Although I intend on keeping my compression crank start ‘14 engines on both runabouts, I’m seriously considering demountable rims. Do you choose runabouts over other body styles, like I do ?

I don’t believe there’s a difference in the cross shaft. The difference is in the height of the curved cam that actuates on the transmission. The TT is taller like in my picture. And I see now that I can easily remove the rivet fastening the handle to the cross shaft to remove the former for ease an...

My only ***btt*** before this ad falls out

Last and only ***btt*** before this ad falls into obscurity

Last *** btt*** before this ad falls into obscurity

Four ‘New Day’ timers in the picture spoken for. Thanks John and MTFCA. Now rest in picture for only $50 + USPS flat rate medium box…

Ford script on the block quit around 1924 and casting dates quit around 1922. Others may be more precise. Ford script on the head quit for the ‘new and Improved’ models (‘26&’27). You have an original Ford block and head.

*** My only btt until this ad falls into oblivion***

***My only btt until this ad falls into oblivion***

I wonder about the date on that touring title in the 4th picture from the top. I’ve never seen ‘14 cowl lamps on a T with a Cowl ! And I can’t picture the style of those cowl lamp brackets

But, of course, we have pics of Two adults sitting on hoods

Thank you for visual entertainment Tom

Here’s a 3rd fender bracket for your selection

….and the round gas tank with mounting brackets will be listed next week

Jim,

Are these the brackets you need ? They’re pretty solid.
$20+ mailing….george

Thanks Frank. Received and answered your email. Will pack them up tomorrow…george

Good for homemade wood body project.

**Reduced Price** Now only $9 + mailing.

This is the best deal in the entire Classifieds! If I already didn’t have 5 powdercoated red on my ‘26 roadster, I’d drive halfway across the country in my 2010 Explorer for these !

Now Reduced Price !!

Now Reduced Price !!

Spoken for. Pending receipt of $$. Thank you Mike and MTFCA

Once upon a time I slung nylon tie down straps on the front and rear axles and used a come-along to pull the axles together just enough so the wishbone ball slid into the socket. Then another time I draped a leather welding glove over the middle of the front axle and clamped down on it with a large ...

You have a 1914 T. Shirley you want a rear taper leaf….
yes/no ?…. I have one in south Texas I’d sell

Thanks George and MTFCA…SOLD….. other George

….including taller cam. In excellent shape to include handle spring. Found a TT trailer and want to build a
truck ? You need this $75 system. Might have to find a very, very large pizza looking box for shipping. Plus FedEx
actual costs.

We’re going too. Staying at La Quinta Kerrville tho’. They’re pet friendly and we have a tour dog

Why Pat ? If you want a hot rod, go for a ‘56 Chrysler hemi

So… Keith…. you’re not bringing any 100s ??

Lower radiator apron matches up with the right front fender better than any ‘new and improved’ T I’ve ever seen…. And it’s obviously either a touring or roadster with the top down !! And THERES TWO WIMMEN SITTING ON THE UPPER WINDSHIELD !! How do they do it ???

Getting things back on track…..I’m a little embarrassed by the modernity of my hometown 1926 dealership built Ford house in Lockhart TX. See the script in stone above the door. For a low 7 figure $$ number you can have a place to store your T fleet, large work area and 6 offices.

Oh no ! What a wonderful, giving and encouraging man. I am so sorry to hear this and please pass along condolences to his supportive family.

Another interesting tidbit about that centerdoor in the picture - Ralph air conditioned it

I love it !! And I love your intentions for it. Interesting that the spare wheel has no hub and rubber is solid.

Yikes ! Only 1 set of two windows/lites left.
Whose will it be ?

I also have a few I’d sell in central Texas. Up to and including the U joint….

Got it.

will pack ‘em up Monday. Thanks Joe and MTFCA

Thanks Mike, Richard and MTFCA. 2 sets of window/lites left

Email sent to Mike….5 sets of 2 ea.left 🥸

It appears hideous when on a tour with the hood open. But I’m extremely glad to see you back Scott

Has anyone noticed those 2 women in the Torpedo 4th picture from the bottom - are driving WITH A BLACK DOG ON THE HOOD !

Tom; how do you do it ? thanx

Yeah ! What a hoot ! Is that windshield just hanging in the air ? And, of course, a pic of a grownup sitting on a hood. And that patient appearing lady in the ‘15 touring 6th from the bottom doesn’t have a luggage rack so shes doing wonders for her paint job with that suitcase

…. Made my day Tom

Spoken for pending payment. Thanks Richard and MTFCA !!

Price reduced !

Tim,… if those C Cabs were in the “Thumb of Texas”, I’d be highly interested…

Yeah. Thats a Rocky Mountain Six Speed. The driveshaft and torque tube-at the least- should be included with the sale. They’re pretty popular if in good internal condition.

Thats interesting Art. Scammers must be territorial and of different ilks. Every FS ad I’ve placed on the HCCA site has resulted in scammers - only. Whereas every FS ad placed here results in bonafide customers… just my 2 cents worth

One Shoe has good linings. Other shoe needs a few rivets. Both brake drums (for wood wheels) in excellent shape and previously painted black. Only $ 90 + mailing. gwhouse731(at)gmail(dot)com
