Post by Dropacent » Thu May 30, 2019 5:21 pm

:shock: I have these ready to ship.

A couple of folks have changed their mind or not ready for one, so I do have several extra available right now. These new controls have a SS flat wound Bowden cable covered in black vinyl and will blend in better on a black steering column. Makes an accessory carb such as the Stromberg RF,OF,LF or others much easier to handle. These continue to be made in USA ( my shop) with all stainless steel fasteners, and come with the bracket to mount to a model T steering column. $165 postpaid to you door. Tmorsher@icloud.com to reach me, PLEASE NO PMs or messages here. I may or may not do another batch in the late fall.THANKS! T

Thanks Hank, nice words coming from another blacksmith ! Bill, I’m attaching some photos. The LF instructions state about 10” from top of steering post. I’ve found about 4 phat phingers phrum the quadrant is in the ballpark. This gets you right above the horn wire tube, if you have one.

I had one of Tim's choke controls and then sold it because I found an original. Let me tell you, there is almost no difference between the two, other than the cable, Tim, I think that coated cable was definately the way to go. Dave

On some of the last of these I shipped, I’ve been supplying with a braided stainless steel choke wire instead of the solid. When I shipped them , I used a small ferrule crimped on the end to keep the wire from unwrapping. It’s really good wire and doesn’t seem to, but I did it anyway. I’ve wired a couple of ferrules to the end, so for most applications ( the OF ) just cut off the one I crimped , and use a new one if needed when you get it adjusted. I’ve attached a picture. On some applications, you may want two crimped, one on each side of the arm, such as the RF installation. I’m not much for written instructions to include, perhaps I should have, but if anyone needs help, just ask, tmorsher@icloud.com

Tim,
Probably in my haste like a kid at Christmas I may have thrown out my column mount. Can I purchase a spare?
