This lid/cap came with some Model T parts I picked up a while back. I’ve had a lot of T accessories over the years but I haven’t been able to figure out what this lid’s application was for. The lid measures 3.4” in diameter.

Thanks!

I’m always learning about rare T accessory parts and this is another one!
Just maybe you’ll find the rest of the oil filter but I doubt it will be easy. That’s another old T part that got thrown away over time that was laying in the corner of old garages.

Hi Ron,
I have found Timesaver works great to lap the taper on the valve. Use a socket the handle fits in & use a drill motor to turn it. There is a
heavy valve grease that works great for keeping them working for years.

Stand kind of bowleged on the tire with your feet at 4 and 8 o'clock. Rock your weight from one foot to the other and work your way to 12 noon being careful not to pinch the tube between the bead and rim.

Column Length is about 54-56 inches.

Steering wheel is finger-jointed wood.

Spark and Throttle control levers are near the top of the column and have spring loaded lockers to maintain a setting.

The control levers and quadrants might be brass, but I have not done a test.

I probably will purchase direct from manufacturer to get a true new battery. Others that have purchased thru cheaper sales have actually purchased used...

Last post

The 6 volt Optima has terminals central at each end of the battery. They can also be mounted each way around. Generally in a T battery carrier they are mounted diagonally anyway, so it is easy to get the terminals organised to suit the cable lengths.

Some of Fred’s cars were featured in Bruce McCalley’s books From Here to Obscurity, and Model T The Car That Changed the World. It has a show quality restoration and was driven only 11 miles following its...

Darel, one day I asked Fred why he painted it red? He replied, At the time I always wanted a red Model T. He had restored this car before he got #220 from Kim.

I used this car as my guidance when I was doing the upholstery and top for my 1911.

Pat, I agree that the car looks fine in red and it is a stellar buy at the price. You would not be able...

There is the possibility it is very early Model A before the changes to how the pinion was made and assembled. Not later V8/B enclosed driveshaft.

The one in the middle and the one on the left are two variations of the exact same thing. Either one will work fine for you. The measurement from the inside top (part that goes against the top of the crossmember) to the cotter pin hole is the only measurement that matters.

Bill, my T has an ammeter that I believe is like yours. When it gets sticky, I remove the back of it and spray it real good with starting fluid. Let it dry, reassemble, and it's good for another 5 or 6 years. Electronic parts cleaner would probably work also, but I never seem to have any around.
