Check this out. Seems like they're made for reaming out triple gear bushings. But just doesn't make sense. Anyone know what they're designed for? Found 'em on eBay, pretty cheap. I already had the Wilson reamer, which I tested, and iit fits inside the fixture bores.

This was made from picture of the wrench, creating a cad file and sent to a 3D printer shop and printed out of stainless steel for ~$120 . All I know for certain is the hub cap end of the wrench fits and I have pressed pins into the spanner pin holes. I haven't a clue what the rest of the wrench is supposed to fit thus I...

I don’t recall ever seeing much discussion on engine splash pans on these boards over the years. Just curious whether anyone has researched them, and if there is a chronology that attends changes in their form.

i set the body on the frame the other night and used 1/2 inch bolts to secure to the 6 frame mounts and everything seemed to line up but I see the front fourdoors seem to be above the firewall so I'm guessing the firewall was not raised up to where it should be. My question is am i overlooking something as when i picked up the car the firewall was...

One hundred years ago in March of 1926, My Model T coupe rolled off the assembly line. When it was 44 years old in 1970, 56 years ago I bought it for $600.00 and began restoring it when I was 16 completing it 2 years later when I was 18. I am now 72. Jim Patrick

Free: Three rusty side and tail lamp bodies. One tail lamp is pretty beat up, the other is just plain rusty. The side light body has a lot of surface rust but you might actually be able to bring it back. They're free just pay shipping. I would prefer to get rid of all of them at once.

Free: I still have a whole bunch of Truss Head (or mushroom head or brazier head) rivets, with a 3/16 x 1 shank, made of what I'm pretty sure is mild steel.
