Re: Any advice on brush painting a T?

Interesting article. If I try to paint some sheet metal parts, either by brush or roller should I use a primer first?

Re: Oil seals for ball bearing rear axle

Allen, or anyone else. Would it be ok to use a little heat on the back side of the gear after it's set up in the press and ready to push?

Re: Hayes Wire Hubs

I have only seen one style of rear hub and two sizes of front hubs, there may be other rears I'm not aware of. I've heard of using the large front hub and doing some machining to make a different tapered hub fit. How is it done? Is the rear spoke flange used or machined down to fit a brake drum and ...

Re: We have arrived "Iola or Bust"

I estimate that the scrappers bought at least 80 % of the T stuff on Tuesday.
I hope I am wrong and some of the buyers were volumn T buyers.

Re: Looking for a MATE!

You can purple the glass yourself with a special light bulb in a few days instead of years, if it has manganese in it. Use a germacidal bulb and fixture, mount it in wooden box with a lid, plug it in and open it in a couple of weeks and see if anything happened. Use all the precautions you can think...

Re: Driving back roads in southern Utah

I can't imagine doing the Elephant Hill area in a Model T. A friend and I did it a few years ago on off road bikes [motorcycles] . When your on top of the boulders, the way off is kind of hard to see except for the tire marks. More than a couple of time we would free fall a few feet getting off the ...

Re: U & J carburetor and manifold

Last night I was looking at a U+J with manifold I've for a long time.
I thought I should do some research and find out if their anything special.
I guess I'll start here.
Is a E+J any better than a stock T carburetor ?
