Copper content in brass-top coils

I have a question for the coil experts out there. Different brass-top coils seem to have different copper contents in the brass. Was this a change that was distinctly made based on a date, or was it random or vendor based? Some look to be very high copper content, but I assume that they are still so...

Since a lot of commutators wear out in between the contacts, I’m guessing this one is designed to help mitigate that by having the rotor always be supported by metal.

Roger, that is probably the earlier 3-z-605 or 5-z-287, both for the T hub. Sometimes the numbers is on the inside cavity. In 1926 Ford came out with the heavier 5-z-1170 with center strike bolt.

Buffalo or House Wire Wheels and Hubs

With Tulare and Luray coming up, I thought there might be some pickup options. I have decided to part with this set of four wheels (30x3.5) and four hubs (2R, 2L) with caps in Model T size. Some might run them, but were it me I would re-rim all four. Two rims have pretty deep pits on the inside and ...

Re: WTB 30 x 3.5 disc wheels

Happens!! How was it this year. Made it last year during peak gas, according to the regulars, it was smaller than normal. I was hoping the owner would see this and link up with you if still available. It was good! I don't know numbers, but the general feel was about the same as last year - I felt l...

Re: Some more Chickasha pics and finds

It's always interesting to see the things you missed out on or just didn't see. Thanks for posting. "1/2 as big as it used to be" is still more than you can truly lay eyes on in 2-3 days. I wish people who can't justify it in their own minds wouldn't run it down for other folks. If you get out and h...

Re: Moore Auxilury Transmission Help

Matthew, you purchased this trans from me, and I’ll offer up various theories set forth from others on this trans. The leading suspicion is that it is a car version that originally bolted to the rear end like normal but that has had the front housing from a TT version bolted to the rear of the car v...

Re: No pictures from Chickasha?

A great time as always. I sold a lot and bought a lot. I got a couple of Weaver Auto Twin Jacks, an original ruckstell shift link rod, part of a set of very early pre-beehive hasslers to hang on the wall, a Chicago Mark-E trans, an original metal battery box cover, etc, etc, etc. It’s also great to ...

Awesome! I’m glad to hear that! It sure shifted nice, and I’m glad the gears look good! The Muncies haven’t sold, so if anyone is through Kansas City sometime and wants one or two, let me know.

It's great for buying and selling big/heavy things that are difficult or expensive to ship! There is also plenty of eye candy, and it's all relevant to the hobby as opposed to most swap meets. Is it as big as it used to be? No. Is it more than you can lay eyes on in two days and truly see everything...

Re: WTB: Original A-C Brakes

Thanks, Steve. Those Lockwoods look like a good design, too, per our emails. It looks like they bias a little more forward braking but still have some self-energizing effect in reverse. Still in the market for original A-Cs if they surface!

Two Pasco wheels and two hubs with nuts but no caps. One wheel is missing one spoke. I'm happy to answer any questions I can. Pick up in Kansas City metro area or free delivery to Chickasha. $1000.

Re: WTB: Hassler Springs with Part Numbers

Thanks, Steve. I have a few with hints of color, but it’s hard telling what happened over the years. I’d like to get together enough stamped springs to characterize what is what from dimensional and spring rate perspectives - the idea being that that data could then be applied to non-stamped springs...

I’d like to buy Hassler beehive springs that are stamped with their part number. Below are examples of a 39 and a 40 with the location of the stamped number circled in red. Can also pick up at Chickasha. Thanks.
