Re: 1913 Model T on Hagerty Auction
Glad to see this one will be preserved and went to the right place. Getting pretty hard to find a good unrestored mostly original 110+ year old model T. Close up pictures would be great for someone wanting to do a restoration and having another one to compare to is a big plus. Congratulations Mark! 👍

Looks like a good sullution has been found. I was thinking of the paintless dent removal while reading this but agree that it might not work in this case or could be too expensive. Knowing Bill, he would rather save the original top but original replacement top is good too.

Re: Any T owners near Smithville or Sparta Tennessee?
Gainesboro is pretty close, I have been through there but it's a little hilly for me. Which direction from Gainesboro are you Rick? North? South? I will look into the local chapters in the area soon.

Re: Early and NOS Parts Found
I just bought it all and will be sorting it out later. After I pick which 1909 chassis and which 2 pedal I want to keep the rest will be for sale. He is going to hold it for me so I can get shipping set up for April 31.
Anyone know what day it is?

Re: 1913 / 14 Runabout Side Curtain Photos Needed
I see a link posted to my old pictures (thanks Mark) but they can't be zoomed in on so I will repost the side curtain shots here in full size. This is a 1913 that was last registered in 1928 and has its original side curtains. I put the top up for the first time in who knows how long so it took a fe...

Re: 1913 Touring rear seat storage
Maybe the cut outs are later 13. Mine is an unrestored January 1913 touring. The side curtains were just folded up under the rear seat when I got it.

Grandpa lost his sight in the 50's ...
