1916 Touring - riveted - nice !

Do you know if these will also prevent silver reflector tarnish?

I dont think so? They would drastically cut down on dust and ambient moisture getting on the reflectors and into the lights for sure. Mainly the idea being is to keep dust dirt finger prints of the outside of the lights. Thus making cleaning easier when you take the covers off...

I have an interesting dilemma.
I was talking to Joseph about selling him the wrench which he has been advertising for going on longer than 4 years now.
It got silent 2 months ago and he has not gotten back to me on my requests to find out what is going on.
It is possible he thinks I am a scammer, there are way too many of them out there.
I know he...

Not only in California, there are a lot of made up 1915 Fords. The quality of their assembly ranges from laughable to excellent. The best are undetectable, down to the nuts and bolts.

Stephen,
I’ll take this

In the trade they are called K-liners. The old guide is reamed, the liner fitted and expanded/ reamed to suit. It is a job for a machine shop, to make certain the guides remain accurately aligned to the valve seats. Being and OHV head makes it easy for modern machine shops to handle.

It does cover the timing gear somewhat, but it is actually the mounting for the generator for motors with electric starter and generator.

It is an early tie rod with the integral ball for the drag link. Later tie rods have threaded on ends held in place with a bolt-on drag link ball.

I tried to post a reply on Facebook, but it wouldn’t accept it(?).

I think this is a late ‘07 or ‘08 Model N. The radiator and cap are the late style, and it has a two door hood which provides easy access to the pressure oiler without removing the hood. The body is definitely an ‘07 and later because the buggy rail follows the top edge of the...

Y&Z's Yesterdays Parts in Redlands,California. He makes all of my wiring, as I've been unhappy with the vendors offerings! He even figured out how to weave the Ford tags into the loom!

Years ago Trent sent me a list of the bolts that were included for the installation of the pickup bed. I still have it somewhere!

Price drop, Holiday Special!

Ford may have used true babbit for thrust washers at some point. But they used the pot metal too. Babbit is a family of alloys. Pot metal, likewise. Pot metal is generally less malleable than true babbit.

I read somewhere that a Model T has about 5,000 parts.

Has anyone ever compiled a list of all the tool ford had ? Is there a listing some where? I've been collecting the 5z tools and there's more that pictured in the parts manual. Just wonder if any out there has an idea

Watching this was much better than the recent fast food AI commercial touting the “worst time of the year” that has since been removed. I enjoyed it and hope the dog remained safely behind the dash after he jumped down.

This technology can only help swap meet attendance. I am increasingly doubtful of emailed parts photos from people I don’t know...

I will take it.

In Alabama we have never had a “Pink Slip” for any ModelT. For that matter no kind of Slip for anything till 1975.

Extra holes affect the value downward. Just FYI

Keith,
I believe you want the upper water outlet from the head to the radiator. the water inlet is on the left side of the block bellow the engine number. Dennis

Great to hear!

I sent a crate from Illinois to idaho with haulistic freight. They were very good to work with.

I have what available a Stewart set-up to suit. I can send photos to your email address.

There are 3 bolts that attach the shift lock. (one also locks the inner lock plate) There are 3 distinctly different shift lock housings. Each one has a distinctly different bolt length set. Start by conveying which shift lock you have.

A year or so ago Hank Lee sold a Vega Box kit - everything needed (had to make you own support bracket with the instructions). Maybe he has one left

There are 2-1 quick steer boxes that can be put on in backwards to make Model T 8-1 or 10-1 steering ratio

I think the Model A would work too. They also have several pitman arms to compensate if needed

I was bored the other day and decided this was a worthwhile albeit quick little project. Until I recently searched the Forum, I forgot that I'd asked pretty much this same original question a number of months ago. I found the post and still don't remember posting it!

Additionally, with respect to the jet, after very careful...
