1907 Model R Ford

Post by jlrowett@gmail.com » Mon Jan 13, 2025 4:20 pm

I have a 1907 engine and transmission that is ready to go into the car, but the transmission needs to be adjusted. I’m not sure how to do that. Can you guide me to someone who may be able to help?

Paul Schaefer in Ohio is probably your best bet. I do not have his number, but he is on the forum.

Go to 'Extra Quick links' on top right and enter his name. You can contact him that way.

Tom,

Is the transmission fully assembled? Is it installed in the transmission frame and attached to the engine?
