Hi Tim,
Had someone with this issue on a tour once, took two to three feet of Teflon tape, hold it between your thumb & index fingers and spin it
into a string, fold it over & spin it again. Turn the gas off, take the bowl nut loose & wrap the Teflon string around the stem between the bowl
& nut in the direction that it tightens in & snug up the...

Maybe a wick burner screws in where the cork is.

Just to clarify...it is desired that the WTB '21 or earlier Coupe have a later engine and trans. My friend avoids cranking because of physical limitations. He likes the suicide doors, body type and low hood design.

I have a 1924 T Coupe. The upholstery was done in 1984.

It is starting to show some wear, especially on the drivers side seat cushion.

What can be done to help protect the seat from getting any worse?

Outboard is the standard fitment. The large holes in the frame are there to facilitate the removal of the shelves without having to dis-assemble the hood hooks and springs from the shelves. Who knows what the speedster builders were thinking.

At 79, on two metal hips and one knee, I am over getting down and dirty under the car.

Being unfamiliar with standard US Ford cars, I do not know how the floor boards are configured. If you are loathe to alter the original boards, lay the rear one aside. Then mount the pedal on a small piece of a replacement board, screwed to left side body rail,...

If you are having this much strife getting the thing off, imagine putting it back on!
On our RHD cars getting the exhaust pipe out of the way often means taking the system off.
Sometimes the HH scrapes on the exhaust manifold getting it off. This means the exhaust manifold should come off, so you don't have to fight against it going back on....

Pictures for my friend Larry!

Great seller! Has good communication and willing to work with you.
Thanks for giving me your time

6 weeks later and the climate controlled room is built! Wheels off the ground, tire pressure lowered to 15 psi, fuel drained and purged..., let the coma begin. Better things to do in life!

Gee Jerry…. great minds function simultaneously

I think it was right after the lunch hour. :D :lol: :) :P

Here is an old thread about it. Original plans of his I have seen had a copyright on them. I have also seen copy’s with it blanked out.

Very illuminating. Thanks, John!

Sure looks like a 1924 to me? 1923 Coupe had suicide doors and the back window had rounded corners and a little more narrow window. Good luck on the sale!!!

Phil's 1911.
Note at the mounting end of the bracket, the shaft comes to a rather distinct point.

If the eye width is in the neighborhood they can be naturally lowered for a speedster. What's the height & eye to eye length?

That's good Keith, because it can be a begger to fix.

Horn has found a new home - thanks MTFCA !

Did other manufacturers use the same skinny valve stems as Ford, or are they all he same?
No, they were (are) not all the same. Half the cars in the world were Fords, which makes it a bit surprising that original metal stems in Ford's preferred size are a good deal less plentiful today than the larger size used by so many other automobile...

For the gasket I bought a sheet of cork material from the local tractor store. I traced the valve cover and cut the material to fit. Still working on the engine rebuild, so I haven't run it yet.

FWIW, my valve cover, valve chest cover and intake block off plate are the reproduction aluminum parts. They were true rough castings (rough and warped)....

Well, beat out again! I came fairly close, but when you're computing in seconds, a couple minutes is enough to put you out of the money Congratulations Andy and Jeannine, that was a well deserved win. This had to be one of the toughest routes we've ever had with about every type of terrain (no gravel or dirt) you can imagine. That first long...

Mechanical brake cable adjuster. Mid 30’s tool for real car folks.

Thanks!

I just cancelled a room at the Baymount by Wyndam if you're looking for a room. 6/11

I guess whoever's it is isn't a member of the forum. Even so, it is very pretty.

The speedster that I have takes the same exact Bosch 14mm plugs that you use. If you go on ebay and look there are normally deals for a box of 10 for usually $19.99. I consider that a screaming deal. If you don't see any send me a PM and I'd be glad to get ya some of my stock. Anything to help in this hobby.

What part of US are you

Joe:
I have a rebuilt starter that I would like to sell. It was rebuilt a few years back and never installed. I want $200.00 plus the shipping cost.

If they are concerned about lights being too bright at least in Oregon then they need to do something with the strobe lights on police cars especially the blue light, at night they are dangerously bright.

Sent you an email.

I'm away on a short trip, back on Monday.

I have a few pairs to choose from. I sent you a message. Thanks

PM sent on spark plugs.

I'll take it

Take a look at these fenders. They are solid. I would like to see someone use these. Thanks

Flares are sold
Thank You Bryan!

Chad is correct this is a pic of Rossie Morris's T racer he ran in the Great American Race.

Make me a fair offer. Thanks

Thank you so much for your contribution to keeping these GREAT cars (N, R, S) on the road. I purchased a set at Homecoming in Richmond last Saturday - can't wait to get them installed. Your deligence and perfection in turning out parts that are no longer obtainable is a big help to our Early Ford projects. Again - I really appreciate your help in...

Useless fun fact: Louisiana is the rainiest of the 50 states for average annual rainfall. So, I don't worry about lack of humidity. I second the motion about care with linseed oil as i have seen the contents of a concrete building get burned out by the stuff on a rag, spontaneously combusting after only a few hours of sitting on a shelf.

Art,
Thanks for the photos. I sent you a reply to your PM. I will take it and will let you know if I need the eccentric. I might have one and need to check.

Will go to Mike pending funds. Dave

Thanks Russ. Art

Hey John, Jeff sold his irons to me. I have a set, but the tips have welded C Channel on them and I'm not confident in my skills to adjust them. I called Lang's and Steve told me that it was common for them to be repaired. In fact, the ones I just bought have been repaired with original tips. The tips would have to be worked into shape. I would...

Chris,

Rich Eagle had a running White bus and many White truck parts, and they are being offered at his estate online auction that is running right now. You may want to look at it online to see if there is anything that you can use to restore your truck. Most of the White truck parts are on page 9 but you will see other White stuff offered on...

James has nailed it, I think. One wire to the magneto post. The second one goes to the switch. The top-of-the-column switch used on a 1917 model has an inbuilt ground connection in the form of a brass plate on the bottom that has a tab going to the other switch terminal.When the button is pressed, the ground is made and the horn blows.Relying on...

Keith, I can't tell if both beads are still to be fitted over your rim. Your ratchet straps serve the same purpose as the clamps i use do. When levering both beads on at the same time, in the last little bit one bead goes on first, and I need to be careful levering the last little bit of the second bead on to avoid possible damage to the tube....

I have some swap meet video. I'm editing things together now and should have an overall homecoming video ready by Friday

Thank for the reply. I am looking for a another one of this type for a matched set.

Did it sell?
he was online today June 9th, you might send him a message and ask he might not have seen the post.

Daisy Mae, I love radio dismuke. Thank you! I like listening to music without all the commercial intrusions. :)

In between fenders is 77”, the fenders are 10-1/2” tall
The door opening is 85” wide x 76” tall

Do you still have this?

I use the old tar I took out of the coils.
To fill up the missing tar I have 10 kilo of new tar that I had from a nearby roofing business for free.
