Looking for a triple twist brass horn

Engine head for sale. Taken off a running 1913 touring. After a little running turns out there was an old crack in the water jacket. Attempted JB Weld repair. Was not sufficient, repair needed. Asking $125 + shipping. Please email if interested.

I am looking for a front wood wheel clincher rim in good condition, as in no pitting. This would be for a 30X3 clincher tire. I am just wanting the rim as I am going to get a newly respoked set of wheels and one of my fronts is pretty pitted. Please direct message or email me.

Don't have it at the moment, I'm working on getting an 11 project from a seller to work on and give to a family member or if they don't want it, flip it. Trying to get a general idea if it's worth my time.

Hi all,
If I have a running, very original (original body, wheels, upholstery, top and mostly original engine) 1911 touring.
I really only got it running, got a complete lamp set and fresh paint. What would be a fair selling price?
Just want to get a feeling for some project ideas.

Thanks everyone for the advice!

Did the 180 degree turn, no change in position. However the axel shaft easily goes to center with little fore, like simple finger force. Could the differential be the problem?

I am replacing my outer and inner rear axel seals on my 1913 T. When I removed the outer original Ford bearing, the axel sprung to one side by 1/4". The bearing slide out just fine by hand. Should I be concerned the axel shaft is sitting in the housing to one side without the outer bearing? Is there...

Just got my 13 up and running, found out my radiator is shot. I have a new brass works one on order. I am going on the Midwest tour in September but the new radiator won't be ready in time. Anyone willing to do a trade? Meaning if you have a new radiator not in use I will pay for shipping and you wi...

Thank you sir.

I am very familiar with driving a T. I also have a family member who has driven T's for decades, so no fear of "over running" the engine. The radiator is original, no leaks and was not boiling over when I ran it stationary in the drive way as a chassis. I have a new radiator on order coming in 4 mon...

I have a newly restored 1913 touring with engine splash pans installed that boils over after a drive regardless of idle time. Does anyone have any experience that points to the pans causing this?

Thanks Mark, exactly what I was looking for!

I would like to make a rear mounted luggage rack for a wicker basket (have yet to get one) on my 1913 touring. Any advice or information would be helpful. Pictures would help as well.

Hi fronty,
Sorry for the long delay, I've been busy. If you could send me a photo to my email, click the contact bubble under my name and I believe it will send it to my email.

I'm looking for brass step plates as no model T parts dealers have new stock. I can do with one, three is preferable. Open to the "new style" with the black or the "older style" with no paint. Please contact me if interested in selling.

Hi,
I am looking for at least one of the brass cover plates for the Rand type windshield hinges. Pictures below. I am willing to buy a pair if offered.

Thanks Russ! Any advice on how to reset the main odometer?

On the model C speedos there is the large brass knob on the right of the housing. What does it do? I know the other knob/pusher is the trip counter reset.

Thanks for the replies! I'm so excited to have my car road read in a couple months!

Any advice on where to get new windshield glass for a 1913? Every place I go to wants a template, none exists to my knowledge and I do not have any original glass to use.

I am wetting my engine for the first time and have found my engine head water jacket has a leak. I am going to attempt repairs but am also pursuing a replacement.

Any one have a 1913 or low head engine head they are willing to sell? Preferably one casted in 1913?

Thank you!

Thank you, found a set on ebay!

I'm trying to identify the proper name for the square U-bracket that holds the rear spring to the rear of the frame. There are 2 per car.

If anyone has one for sale I need one. (part found)

Thanks everyone for the information

Update, I am working with a couple people outside the forum. So the parts are found.
Thank you every one for your time and help! And thanks you to Melba Nolan and Steve Tomaso!
