Hello: I used https://arp-bolts.com/. I used them on my 4 valve Rajo and my 8 valve overhead DePaul. I cleaned each block hole and measured the depth and wrote it down. Measure the thickness of the head gasket and write that down. measure the thickness of the head and write that down too. Call them ...

Maybe a byline to the original poster?

Price seems right for both years but the Encyclopaedia lists 377 built for 1910 and 236 for 09

I found my numbers on page 13 of the BMC book. Gary

The BMC book lists the factory price at $ 950.00 with 298 produced.
The factory price for 1910 was $ 1100.00 only 2 produced.
That should be enough to start a discussion. Gary

Good eye Mark, that is an Apperson poster near the top.

Views of the parts dept and one of the mechanics. Gary

Photo appears to a TT truck, short running board and brackets. Gary

My mom told me not to play on the tracks.

Hi Tom: I have that exact photo in a postcard form. Also have the same car with original style headlamps also in post card form with hand scribed doctors name on the front. Gary

Hope this works. Gary

I have a Manzel catalog with a picture of a 6005 BLS adapter. Looks similar. Fits a 1952 - 53 Ford Passenger and Station Wagon. 6 cyl. O H V engine. Gary

Most obvious is the front body-to-frame carriage bolts: ( two for the early bodies and three for the "standard" 1910). I would have to say that other than the newer radiator (1911 or newer with the original 1909-1910 "FORD" cutout added to the core) and the steering wheel, the car looks like a reaso...

Here is what I did on my dual plug DePaul head. 90 * bases are 1920's Dodge. I did run Model "B" dist. first but then changed to Bosch. Electronic ignition pickup in the read dist. which fires a 1/3 of a Buick coil pack. Gary in MN

They appear to be cast brass, 15" long x 1 1/4" at the widest point.

Question 1. What year Ford / model ? Question 2. Original or reproduction ? Thanks Gary in MN

Magnets installed and checked with KRW guage. Also static balance.

More T transmission for a friend. Picture 5, new pins installed ready for triple gears. Triple gears with new bushings fitted on the lathe. Picture 6 is of an Allen 6 volt magnet charger. Picture 7 is of the test weight. Picture 8 is of the final test, this magnet is good to go.

A "T" transmission for a friend. Picture 1 shows some of the small parts to the transmission puzzle. Picture 2 is an adapter I made in 2000 to support the flywheel during removal and installation of triple gear pins. Picture 3 is the pilot wheel arbor press I used to install new pin part way. Pictur...

Interesting "T" at the show on Sunday. Imagination, leftover "T" parts and thinking outside the box. Well received by all. Gary in MN

A few more. Gary

Those are mine, I have been collecting Ford items since my junior year in high school ( 1970 ). here are couple more, these bare paper. The large sign was a Hershey purchase late in the 1970's. Gary

Here is a picture of the sign in question. I have a parts book with that sign on the cover..... 1950's. Gary

Here are pictures of the exhaust manifold. Gary in MN.

I have had this aluminium head for a long time, even had a adapter made so I could run it on a "T" . Never did the combustion chamber looks even larger than stock. Rajo 8 valve, Rajo 4 valve and a DePaul 8 valve pushed this head to the shelf. The top outlet " keep overflow warm" matches the engines ...

Three examples of Clum keys. Gary

This setup is a little more involved. I used Bosch dist. mounted on 1920's Dodge 90 degree dist housing. The rear dist has the trigger to fire a coil pack from a Buick V6.
