Allan noted rim is Canadian, the two holes opposite are for the Rim Tool to open and close the split rim.

SOLD! Thank You!

In the UK they are spire nuts

Bumpity bump.

Just a bump to the top. Need minimum of 12 per style to make a run. See post on the parts side please.

Dan,
I too would like a set.

The dogleg at the back end of the hood shelf indicates that it is a high cowl body. There is no dogleg on a low cowl car.

Allan from down under.

It would appear that this piece is a poem. Still amazing to listen to something that was recorded over 100 years ago!

Enjoy :)

Consider adding Cal Stewart’s 1919 Columbia recording of “Uncle Josh buys an automobile.”

Please call me about your tires Tim. 216-387-9544

I've got them as well as the wires responded to your email this morning

Nice ! I have a NOS w/the H.B. boot also.

Mike,

I used your ECCT when I rebuilt these KW coils for our 1911 T that I restored a few years ago. Since then I usually check them each winter and tweak them as needed. I cheated when restoring it by installing a new coil box that looks like the Heinze box but is sized for KW coils. 3 of the 4 Heinze coil that initially came with the car had...

Thanks Mark, and I'm aware of Scotts post.

Mike,
Well, I'll confirm your suspicions about white lithium.
When I tore down my TT in the 80's I had to store machined parts until I had the money to restore. That was one of the recommendations then, greased up and wrapped in oil cloth.
Only to discover later the onset of serious rust after only about 4 years. And that was in arid Calif.
Why I...

Jeff:
many years ago at a farm auction i saw a T motor with a Dodge Brothers starter generator jury rigged on to the front cover using the DB sprockets and a crude assembly of angle iron and flat plate ... possibly any DC motor might be adapted for this purpose and also double as a generator ...Gene French

Certainly tractor or industrial.

How can I help?

Bill, Message sent.

It looks like a casted oil pan and my guess is there is some sort of oil pump that runs off the cam. If you look closely there is a little oil sight glass.

Sold to Charlie. Sorry Ed, thank you . you are 2nd in line if Charlie does not take it.

I think I've answered my own question by an earlier photo that I took of my timer's brush two weeks ago.

I have a bunch of fronts and wheels not to many rears shoot me a message I'm in wi as well

Send me a note.

Thanks, now I need to find one for a complete set. Dan

Felloes would need extensive straightening or re-rolling.

I'm going this year. I'm looking for 23 coupe (suicide doors). interior parts and passenger side door latch.

Sending email— thanks!

Mike, Your assumptions are almost entirely correct. In the interest of clarification I will restate that the genesis of this project was to create a mechanism which would allow me to test various versions of rare earth magnet replacements, primarily as an experiment. There are many options for rare earth magnet types (high temperature neodymium...

Art:
Congratulations! That has to be a tremendously rewarding project, one that meets the Steve Jelf definition of 'rocket surgery'. Best to you, jb

TTT please !

TTT please !

All bolts sold to Jon thanks !

Thanks Henry,
I just bought one to put in the spare parts toolbox.

Update, still searching for the right car. It's tough finding a 1914. Hoping to hear back from Don.

My gut is telling me it was a 26-27 coupe wood window frame body then chopped off right behind the quarter windows and reworked to make it into a truck.
The seam for the center rear upper panel is now bent to be sticking straight out the sides.
It has some kind of car to truck conversion (extra and longer frame rails) adding the stake bed to the...

Yep. I wonder if it was store-bought, or home made from an old casing or boot top and wired-on or laced-on with cord of some kind..... . Bumpity bump, shimmy and shake! The tires look a little under-flated, so maybe he had just got a rim cut.

Well, it's not a TT frame, and interesting use of a mating plate to adapt a car torque tube, ya wonder what happened to the TT torque tube given it would have to use a TT drive shaft (shortened as well), not a car ds, to spline into the worm.
Use what ya got!

With snow on the ground its the perfect time to learn the art of coil tuning and play an active roll in how well your engine runs this touring season.

Check out the MTFCA Coil Testing and Tuning Webinar on Youtube:

Its a great review of the Model T ignition system, Model T coils; how they work and how to properly tune Model T Coils.
Great...

It’s a reference from the Model T Ford Service Manual.

Has anyone tried annealing the bras crimp ring and re crimping it?
Also anyone here live close to Hartsville SC?

That rim is indeed a Canadian rim. The give away is the pair of holes in the side of the rim each side of the split. These are there to accommodate a special tool used to split the rim. There are two similar pieces on each side of the split, like T model door hinges. A pin fites between the two pieces when the rim is properly, just like the hinge...

Many years ago there was a shop in town that specializes in Carburetors. On their counter was a carb off a B17. That thing was huge! Dan

Likely the same type as the ones we play with. The B 17s used R1820s. The T 28s do as well, although with a few changes.

Larry, No truer words were ever spoken! :D Russ

Gulf T's is disbanded, it was Kathy Tagert I was in contact with. Several from that club attend events organized by a South GA group, there was one last Fall in Tallahassee I missed, unfortunately.
My '14 wasn't local, it lived its life in Michigan, but nice to know there may be another '14 close by.

Finding a 55 210 2dr Chevrolet in good shape isn’t easy to find! Lot of those were hot rodded when I was in HS in the later 60’s. By now when you find one they are usually just a shell of a body at the end of the road. When you find one it definitely won’t be real cheap if it’s in decent shape.

I decided to put together a dedicated video of Austin:

It’s genuinely inspiring to see an 18-year-old with this level of passion for the Model T hobby. Austin’s enthusiasm, knowledge, and willingness to get involved give a lot of hope for the future of antique car preservation.

If you haven’t watched it yet, it’s well worth the time.
