26 generator was functioning in the car.
On this car I have rebuilt the drive train, so I thought it would be a good idea to go over the starter and generator.
The previous owner had gone through the generator as it has a new insulated brush plate. The field coils are not new, however they are not grounded . Checked the armature on a growler,...

I’ve been making new transmission drums for a little while. I’ve made a sample main shaft and now i’m considering making gear sets for the transmissions. I started by making one triple gear to see if I could do it. I think I’m going to try to make a full set and have them heat treated.

Hi, Looking to buy a full set of good 26/27 Wood Wheels and Hubs. Happy to pay for shipping to Chicago.

Last week my 26 sedan ran so great but this week there’s a slight missing in the exhaust and a noticeable loss of power. And when I shut the engine off there’s a noticeable vapor coming out of the choke. 🫤 shorting out each spark plug seems to have no noticeable change in engine sound.
I was hoping to post a short video of the fuel vapor coming...

A nice, unrestored pair of headlamps that would date to about 1908-1912. The approximate measurements are 9 1/4 in diameter and height and 8 in depth and 7 1/2 inches between the fork mounting holes. There is no name on these so they can be used on any car. One has a broken reflector and the other one is missing a plain lens. There are a couple of...

Constantly inspecting and cleaning up parts, I noticed something odd about my fan hub.
The belt hub itself spins true. The fan blades themselves spin true. However, the hub shaft and blade flange are spinning 0.097 off center!! The rivets for the blades were drilled true to shaft center, not with the flange.

Begs the question as to production...

With all due respect, I am not looking for generic speculation but what I am looking for is what is considered authentic on the 'color' of Brass Glass Channel?

Cleaning up parts on Daisy (1914 Touring), working on the front fender irons. The headlamp pickle forks are DB's, but I'm not familiar with the mark on the actual fender iron.
Anyone?

My 1924 touring is having problems in performance. The #3 cylinder is not working correctly. Have replaced all plugs, wires, cleaned all contacts in coil box, rebuilt good coils. Good compression in all cylinders (40 - 44). Yet when you short out each cylinder, #1, #2, and #4 will short out the engine, but not at #3. All 4 will spark with a strong...

With or without the distributor is ok but I would like one with the toggle & levers. I'm looking for the type with the distributor on the front, not the magneto on the side.

Located in CA but happy to pay shipping.

Saw this tool on a FB Vintage Tool I.D. Group, was unidentified by the poster.

So looked up the tool in a Stevens Speed Up Catalog. Rather useful to have when one-man replacing rivets, makes a real good bucking bar.

Not sure who produced this head, or the compression rating on it. It appears to be greater than 6 to1 but that's just my opinion. The only markings on it other that the Ford script and made in USA is a 4 at the water outlet and a 2 and 4 at the back of the top surface of the head. These numbers are raised and part of the casting.

There are no...

I have a question for the coil experts. I've been rebuilding some coils, checking the primary & secondary winding's, and replacing the capacitor. I am using both an old amp type tester and ECCT tester to set these up correctly. I've done about 10 so far and 5 have a strong spark and 5 a weak spark. The resistance of the primary & secondary...

Well, the last Model T of my more than 30 year hobby has left with a shipper to its new home. What started out as the first car I bought actually turned out to be the last one I fully restored. It was a 26/27 roadster Frankencar found in Idaho and I drove from Texas to pick it up with a flatbed trailer in February, needless to say NOT the time to...

I am trying to id the side lamp brackets on this 1914 Touring I recently acquired. I have gone through all of my reference materials and can't find a match to the brackets. Maybe aftermarket accessories? The car is a late August 14 build with a Hayes body. The side lamps are Victor Model 2. Thanks in advance for any help. 14T.jpg 14bracket.jpg
