Dad and I have a two cylinder plan car. It’s about half restored. They are very interesting little cars. I’d have it done but Model T projects seem to get in the way.

I measured our front window opening it’s the same at the bottom as it is at the top. 39 inches and our top wind folds out and the bottom one in.

Dad and I have a late 16 with a lot of early features on it if you want to drive to Battle Creek to check it out. Great job.

Email me your phone number and I’ll text you a photo of the c cab panel. meyre14t@yahoo.com

I have one side panel but I’m in Michigan. Email me at meyre14t@yahoo.com and I’ll send you a picture this week.

Oddly I have a pair of repo 15-16 rear center door fenders available to provided I can find them. Mark Eyre meyre14t@yahoo.com.

I can help with a lot of the chassis stuff when your ready. Rear end steering column and such appropriate for a 15. We are not that far away from you. Mark and Phil Eyre

I’m in need of 1911 closed door torpedo side curtain patterns. Any information would be appreciated.

I will bring a right side perch for you look for a red 09 touring in the show car area. Blasted new bushing with a good nut. Yours if you want it I’ll throw it in for the cause! Mark and Phil Eyre dad talked to you at the auction. We will probably only be there Sunday.

I grew up in the hobby as my dad had one three years before he had me. I’ll be 50 in February this year. Between my farther and I there are about 30 of them in various states of repair. Now my son and daughter have their own and really enjoy them. They are the third generation of my family to be in ...

I to am looking for the washer and small nut for the swivel. I would try have some made if I could find one of each for a pattern. The small gear is available repo at Lang’s. I may have a second wheel gear just like the one in Russ’ book I’d have to find it though. My email meyre14t@yahoo.com.

My dad Phil Eyre would like to purchase this from you if it is still available. Please email me your contact info at meyre14t@yahoo.com. He is a long time collector past MTFCI president but doesn’t do the computer thing.

Wow I’m user Name Model T Mark with spaces. This is going to be confusing keeping us apart.

1923 Centerdor knocked down doors still have most of the wood. Sheetmetal is solid little rust here and there. All seats included. This was a complete body that has been in storage a longe time. 85-90% complete will need a complete rewooding. 800.00 you pick up her or will ship for expenses. Phil Ey...

I believe this is a Canadian head. The 12 style US has a distinctive smaller or more crisp Ford Script.

Good luck to all the participants! We did it in 2009 and it was the ride of a life time! Anybody Driving through Michigan that needs pars, tools, pieces or ...... post here on the forum we have a large amount of parts on hand and are near your route in Southern Michigan.

I’ll take it. Get me a price of shipping to 49014. Here is my email meyre14t@yahoo.com and I’ll get you a check. Mark Eyre

It was just posted the 1911 roadster got its senior grand national award and Eric won what he was up for. The last time we have had the 11 out was in 2011. It was restored in 2001 I did a lot more work on it to make it pretty in 2006-2007.

I don’t know yet. My son is a senior and was playing in a district baseball game at noon. If they won they were saving him to pitch in the championship game. They won and I left at 3. They lost but he pitched a complete game again. They lost 8-9 after 4 delays for lightning. It was one of the best d...

I’ll be there with a 1911 Commercial Roadster provided I can make it run tonight and polish all the brass which we half about half done. Making it run is should be no big deal. The last time ours was at an aaca meet was around 2011.

The owner of the restoration shop would always say “Slow down and think, don’t work like your killing snakes”. Another one he would say “If it was easy everybody would do it” or “It’s like your making a career out of it”. He was a true believer in that your life’s work needs to mean something. In hi...

It’s very possible to restore a car in a pole barn. I do have some experience restoring cars. I worked as a restoration tech. for Beckley Auto Restorations for ten years. Then a stint for Bud Hicks Buick restoration service. Now I teach grade school but do restoration for others in the Summer. That ...

Yes that is how it will be. Wheels fenders and springs and axles yet to go. It was too cold to do it when we did the body. Thanks for the good comments.

The body number is b 6433 and it doesn’t have the biscuit joint just a screw like in one of the pictures on Trents website. Is post pictures but I’m not as tech savvy as my buddy Eric.

I has a b and then a number under the seat. I’d have to go look at it to see the exact number. It’s in the early 60000 and I do have the build sheet. We have it all including the pedals. It’s pretty much as it’s invoiced but I can’t read the carbide tank maker. It should have brown side lamps and a ...

This is an interior kit in leather that was installed and very lightly used. Includes kick panels covered in leather and all trim. Taken out carefully can text pictures. 450.00 plus actual shipping, good condition over all. Phil Eyre 269-964-9248. Michigan.

torpedo dash and filler. Old reproduction needs to be refinished. 75.00 plus actual shipping. Phil Eyre 269-964-9248.

Eric is correct on the 11 torpedo in the above post it has been apart since 1987. We took it apart to store it when I was 17. Next year I’ll be 50 and it was time to get it done. Life certainly gets in the way of the hobby sometimes. I’m not too computer savvy so Eric has been posting pictures as I ...

I’m a little further away but have 30 plus years of restoration experience. Mainly Model Ts if your interested, I’m in southern Michigan. I have experience with partial restoration to complete restorations. You may contact me at meyre14t@yahoo.com.

I’m going need a copy of that if your are willing. Dad and I don’t have one of those. We have the latest 12 manual. It’s great that copy number four is almost in my back yard. Thanks for sharing. It’s one thing to have a lot of knowledge and even better when your willing to share it with the rest of...

I have a 13 touring also. Dark green in color probably assembled in a branch assembly plant. I restored it in 2004 for a friend who passed and I ended up with it. It’s my car I like it green. In my friends honor I probably would never change it. 13-14 in my opinion are the most fun to drive. Enjoy!

Everything Eric does is first class! It’s a car that has been used but maintained over the years. I was talking with him last Thursday night and he has the correct rear axle housings and front wheels to change to. He has the actual housings that are original to this car. So as far as homework I’m su...
