Re: What have you done to/with your Model T in November

Finally got my 1020 Wrecker on the road for the 1st time. As I know, that's its 1st road trip (even though very short distance) in more than 30 years! It all went smoothly but I am really still trying to learn how to drive it and more importantly stop it without stalling! It made me very happy to se...

Re: It’s Over

Duncan OK swap meet seemingly had good buyer with cash traffic last March. I made good money there - but mainly on small parts I could sell in USPO flat rate boxes from home. Also drove 6 hours to get there with 7 good T fenders and only sold 1. Also had restored rear taper leaf spring for $200 and...

Re: Stalling on a incline

Hello all and Thank You for your input! My problem is finally solved; after taking the carb apart yet another time to check everything, I decided to order a new float. Much to my surprise the new float was much lighter and ever so slightly smaller. After installing and adjusting this new float to wh...

Re: Stalling on a incline

Thanks all. The "new" carb came from Lang's and yes the bowl breather is where it freely flows out. The "potato" is new and clean the tank is questionable. I'm going to pull the tank this weekend; clean it and likely use a tank sealer. Has anyone had experience with tank sealers? As for the incline,...

Re: Attachment on inside firewall

It has several "oddities" becaause for the life of me I don't understand why it has a Bud Vase and now a ashtray when it doesn't even have doors! Naturally over ...
