Re: If you’ve ever wondered how wooden body parts were made…

They used irregular shapes of wood put together with sliding dovetail and tongue and groove joints.

Re: Head Light Identification

Being that the fork mount doesn't have set screws or bolts as the Model T lights did, the vehicle that this light came from must have had threaded forks. Both top and bottom have been machined.

Re: Head Light Identification

Keith, no inscription or markings anywhere that I can see on the out the side, I will have to try and open it maybe the reflector has some markings on it.
Pat, here is a close up of what I see as bubbles or air pockets.

Head Light Identification

I have this one head light that looks similar to a model T, but I don't think it is, I am hoping someone ID it.
It is 10-inchs in diameter, original glass with bubbles.

Re: Replacing the coil box on my late cousin's T

Michael, the wiring is rather simple as long as you make the proper connections, you can use factory made harness like the vendors sell or make your own. The connections on your switch plate may need to be cleaned or replaced. You didn't mention if it was 6 or12 volt system on your truck.

Re: Sorting out the Clutch

Vernon, your linkage is binding on the inside radius, I have taken a file to that area and removed enough material to free things up.
That will give the linkage move lateral movement, perhaps just enough to clear the Bendix cover.
