I found out right out of the gate that the car ran mu...

Re: Please identify very early Kingston Carburetor
I have this exact carb on my 2 cylinder 1905 Queen. It’s original equipment for my car. They work exceptionally well if they’re not in anything but excellent condition. Some of the Fords used a version of this carb with slight modifications.

Re: FS: 1912-1913 Brass Jno. Brown Model 19 Headlight
Thanks guys for the additional info. My ‘13 was built in September or October of 1912 and these are what was on it originally. My original lamps were in very bad shape and in the process of upgrading, I ended up with this one as a spare.

Here we have a really nice original solid headlight. Used on 1912 and early 1913 T's. May used on 1911's (?) You be the judge. There are a few tiny cracks and dents in the body and bezel, ONE tiny tight crack in the bezel. Nothing that looks like it's going to get worse from use. Glass is good. Hing...

These plates do not have black painted background, they will be etched as my original is. See pic above. If you have not already expre...

Just an FYI, It may take 3-4 weeks to get a price quote. I've already sent my original to the USA to get the plates done, but we'll get the quote first so we all know what they will cost.

I’ve had a couple of guys ask about replication of these plates. I own an original to copy. I can look into doing these if there’s enough interest. Hopefully it’s as successful as the 1912 data plates. Note that these always say Ford, Ontario. I’ve never seen a “Walkerville” example and doubt that t...
