Gear hole diameters: .378, .380 and .380 inches.

Hi.

A frame, motor, axles, steering parts...other random bits.
I don't have much of a plan, but i'm very excited about this almost car.

I have a '23 Runabout, see picture. I'm on the prowl for a Model T-appropriate tool box that's shorter than the one I have now, to gain more running board luggage space. The current one is 22 long, so anything shorter than that may be of interest. Tall or short, I'm flexible. Thank you.

Hi, Is anyone here bringing a T to the San Clemente Classic cars show tomorrow?

For years I’ve been curious, why did Henry Ford and his designers develop the Model K with individual jugs, when the Model N motor was cast in pairs? It seems that pairs were the natural wave of the future, leading toward the future Model T mono-block.
