Thanks Norman, they split around St Louis, but Little Rock Ark and parts of Illinois got some twisters.

Ben Martin does outstanding work!

Thanks Frank. That's the one I had seen. And, thank you Gene - as always. Can anyone speak to personal experience with the new truss rod? I have read posts from the past on how different years' axle housing diameters, being different at the point that the clamp mounts was a concern.

I’ve been running fiber cam gears for close to 50 years in multiple engines. The key factor is good gear mesh. They must Not bind. Probably about.002-.005 clearance is good. The same applies to the generator gear

Any more 2839 lug wrenches available? Jim Yuill

Thank guys for the input, this is my 3rd 14 and yes 1 was black I left it alone and decided for the brass on the other two and my 12 which is ok. MTFCI Judge standards are fine for the purist mine are drivers and get alot of attention but those people don't pick my cars apart. Yes to each his own. George what the hell is bling bling?

The name of the coupe is in question until its in my possession so I left it open but you get the drift.

Go to www.yesterdaystractors.com and look under Ford and you’ll find them. 6 and 12 volt.

I live within 10 miles of a major city (over one million). I drive on the shoulder of the highway whenever possible. We have quite a few paved county roads. I try to avoid rush hour when driving the T (which I’ve been doing for 48 years)

I think the overall Model T paint was was pretty shiny for a while. After a month or so in the weather and maybe being washed and dried off a few times that’s when the sheen started to change unless the owners may or may not have used some type of polish on it. There weren’t many if at all black top roads either. After a few years in the country a...

Anyone remember Pink Air ?

Unless the idle circuit is compromised by crud, the richness setting for idle is the same richness setting for driving (on a properly rebuilt NH). If the float level is too high or too low, you'll have a carb which is NEVER completely happy and unless you like taking your eyes off the road while driving to constantly fiddle with it, you will not...

I've been there twice. It's a lot of fun, but quite an expense from California! I flew out last year to Richmond, and was able to view the countryside on the way there.

I've seen a lot of old, poor quality die castings crumble and fall apart. Indoors or out, it doesn't matter. Often, other die castings in the same piece of equipment are as-new. Pre-WWII radios and phonographs often had pot metal parts, and indoor storage did not proetct the vulnerable parts.

Still available. Come take a look.

If Steve can't help let me know. I have a few nuts and lugs as well.

Sold to Wayne. Email sent. Thank you. 😀

The only issue I’ve had with the 5014RE switch is the fact that the holes on the switch did not line up with the holes on my frame but it’s no big deal if you don’t mind a bit of drilling.

Sold thanks! Email sent

Until it just starts coming out the filler hole.

May solve the letters and could be a special key they made
Perhaps a key blank was modified for a special lock, not for a car

Sorry, no hubs

1/2 -12 threads and 1/2 -13 threads used to be commonly available.
The standard thread now is 1/2 -13, but I have a tap and die set for 1/2 -12 and I see them advertised occasionally on Ebay and other sales sites. It became obsolete in the late teens, (probably during wartime production in WWI it was dropped as a specification), although...

Is there anyone in here who is a longtime member of the Noken T's. I was on one of their tours a good while ago and at an evening supper/get-together that song came across on the P.A. system. We all got a kick out of it, mainly because we had all been in the same udn-udn situation at least once. I was told that the song was sung by one of their...

Don
Thank you

Sold to Larry. Thank Larry! 😀

Sorry I'm late seeing your add. I didn't know I needed an ignition switch until now. I have a 25 coupe that has an after market (repo) switch that isn't worth dealing with. That is all the dealers have. I need an original, usable switch.

Looks like Champ is living a pretty fine Dog's Life. A full time job to hang around with Jim and his friends, take rides in a neat old car and eat treats. He makes a fine mascot and I'm betting a great companion.

When I die I would LOVE to come back like Champ!

Melba do you still have the wire wheels

Sure enough, that free dangling starting crank may have met up with a high curb while bouncing in on your last stop at Wawa for coffee altering the 90 degree bends.

Sediment bulb sold to Shannon. Thank you Shannon. :)

Are the Top Bows different on the '26 than on the '27?
The length between the first and second are different. It seems that the last is a little shorter than the third.

Sold to Scott. Thanks Scott! :)

I am having the same problem with email and pm’s.

Distagon2 I have been trying to reach you ever since the forum messed up and slowed down. Could you please contact me on email at gtojesse at yahoo dot com

Judging by the spring rates provided, a new higher tension square spring would work fine
with possibly a little extra tension via the 3 finger adjustment.

Do check the new springs tension. I have found a wide range from 110#'s to 130#'s
The stiffer tension preferred for the Watts disks.

Please state the year you are looking for!

1924 Coupe

I'll have some boxes of miscenalos stuff with some of them,
I'll be in Luray in May.

unfortunately, your experience is all too common, but trust me, when you FINALLY break through the crust and meet some folks, they'll ask what took you so long??

:lol: :lol:

Thats funny and im sure when i do they all know the car (bought here)
and i do love the Tyranny quote by the way

There is probably more uniformity of dimensions for the later bodies. The original floor boards and the sill rebate in my Wilson-bodied '13 are 5/8 .

I broke my cabin fever 4 times in February. It was a nicer month to bring out the Fordor than March was! I'm glad March is over.

The head has been spoken for pending payment. Thank You Steve

looks like you are showing the back side of the panel, what does the front look like? is it straight? any rust pits?
