Re-built model T transmission - For Sale
I believe this was intended for our 1925 model T roadster project (please do correct me if you know otherwise)
The transmission is a complete rebuild and was done by Dan Mceachern in Alameda Ca.
Most of the parts were supplied by my father, a few small things supplied by Dan.
This is a complete transmission and has not been installed
1700.00 OBO
Located in Santa Rosa Ca
Text/Call Marie at 805-218-0849
Or message here
Beware, this is heavy, about 80-90 pounds - I am happy to package/crate and ship to someone at the buyers expense. I have a slightly discounted shipping rate with UPS and I also have a shipping cargo account with Alaska Airlines.

Marie, that small drum transmission should weigh around 90 lbs.

Advise you to remove you phone number from the listing. You are exposing yourself to scams given the price of the item. The b est way for Buyer/Seller communication is use the Forum's PM or email process. This way, at least, you know its a member & can check their membership date. Additional communication then can exchange phone numbers, addresses etc
The past is a great place and I don't want to erase it or to regret it, but I don't want to be its prisoner either.

Re: Re-built model T transmission - For Sale
Marie, I see from one of your pictures that the transmission has splashers and magnet spools in place of the magnets. Do you know if Dan in his rebuild used one of his transmission pin retainers to keep the pins from backing out ? If you are unsure, you can post a picture of the crankshaft side of transmission, just tip the transmission on its side and have someone take a picture. Dan’s pin retainer is really a nice addition to a T transmission with magnets removed.

Re: Re-built model T transmission - For Sale
Thank you all for the tips - will get the additional photo this evening when I have help - and I agree with the weight of 90 pounds because it is not easy to move LOL

I am not versed on transmissions at all.. I can shift them and know when one is mad but I have not built a model T transmission before.

Re: Re-built model T transmission - For Sale
FYI, when Marie's father brought the parts to me for rebuilding, the triple gear pins were already installed as was the ring gear using the magnet spools and bolts you see. I added my oil slingers to ensure adequate oil circulation. The retainer plate could be added if desired. Additionally, every rotating part in this transmission has been dynamically balanced and the tail shaft runout reduced to less than .005".

Also, there is a bag of some extra parts but I do not know what they are, I can take photos of them also.
