The “K whisperer” and I have arrived........ in Dearborn
Posted: Mon Sep 02, 2019 9:24 pm
Started at 1:30 a.m. and met Dean Yoder at his place about 9:00. Dean did what he does best, quickly rebuilt the roller and the yoke that holds it for our K roadster. In a couple of hours, it was better than new, and off we went. Arrived at the Pink Pallace in Dearborn a few minutes ago.
Now, a week at Benson, and OCF. It doesn’t get much better........
The roller was worn down unevenly, and the brass holder grooved on the bottom:
Dean turned down a new roller, and tinned then babbitted the uneven surface. Now it’s as good as new, or better.
This is the third Model K Dean has brought back to life, and fifth K motor he has worked with.
