Re: FS All original 1914 Model T Touring car

Hi Bob,

Re: WTB - Gas head lamp, glass mirror insert

Hi Steve, Remeasured and it appears that your mirror should fit. Mine is 6" wide and depth is 1-11/16", attached is a poor man's drawing of the measurements of the bevel.

I have been helping a older gentleman getting his T back on the road. It was put away 1 1/2+ years ago following a loud "Clunk" while backing it out of his garage, then pushed back into the garage, and due to health issues there it has sat. While we were attempting to get it going with the electric ...

Re: Removing lamp font

Thank you both for the info and pictures, very helpful. It is as I thought but did not not want to apply to much pressure out of fear of causing damage. I will try some penetrating oil in hopes it helps to loosen thing.

Thanks again,

Removing lamp font

Recently up graded from a 1923 Touring to a 1914 Touring. The 1914 has side lamps made by The Victor Lamp Co. I have been attempting to remove the font on the lamps to add oil, but will be damned if I can figure out how to do so. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Rick IMG_1029.jpg IMG_1028.jpg I
