Well, here are some more pictures on the hinges on the windshield in question. From the drawings posted above, the tongue and groove pieces look identical to the Troy. It’s probably safe to say it it a Troy. It has to be fairly early, it has the studs for the windshield braces. I am pretty sure this...

Tourabout

Mine has the spring on the outside of the hinge. I am not sure what locks the windshield into position. I will have to take it apart and see what’s inside. Whether or not it has the tongue and groove.

Tourabout

Anybody have any idea if this was for a T Model?

Tourabout

Bottom frame is 41 5/8” X 14 3/4”
Upper frame is 41 5/8” X 10 3/4”

I have this brass windshield and am not exactly sure what it is off of. Can anyone tell me anything about it? I don’t see any markings on it.

Tourabout

Here is a better picture of the rotor.

Tourabout

I think the bigger backing plate is what I need

Tourabout

Joe,
Mine measures 2 13/16 diameter and approx 5/8” deep.
You mentioned rollers.

I found a picture of some rollers from a sales site.

Tourabout

Joe,
That looks like it. Let me see if I can measure mine here in a few.

Tourabout

Joe,
I will email you,
Thanks,
Robbie

Tourabout

Does anybody make new contact rings for the brass timers? This is the contacts inside the timer that the roller makes contact with. Also, does anyone make rollers for them?
Thanks
Robbie

Are they having Chickasha this year?

I am looking for a cap for my carbide Generator?
Has anybody got one they would sell?

Tourabout

I saw that this morning

Tourabout

Look at the horn, open bell. That’s the horn that came with my 09. Lots of people say that horn isn’t correct for an 09?

Tourabout

Do the hub thread chasers have left and right hand threads to clean up threads on the spindles? I’ve never had one before.

I’m not sure if this has been posted here but this is a very impressive working 1:18 scale model of a T Model Ford.

I’ve heard the timer called a communicator.
Growing up here in the south we always called the tin Lizzie a T Model and that’s what I still call it. I have been corrected several times over the years that it is a Model T but to me it is a T Model.

Tourabout

What the waht?

That’s a typo, right?

Tourabout

I sent you an email.
Thanks

Tourabout

I need three original spindle washers if anyone has any originals lying around.
Thanks,
Robbie

Tourabout

Has anyone seen these type spark plugs before?
They have the 1/2” NPT thread.

Tourabout

I may be wrong but I thought the original timers were made in the USA.

Tourabout

Do you have the 09/10 windshield brackets?
How do I tell the difference between the 09/10 and 11?
Thanks,
Robbie

Tourabout

That sucks

It was titled “Good Turn!” Here is a copy of it:

Good Day,
How are you doing? I was wondering if i can get a quick favor from you.

Awaiting your response.

My 16 is a January car but doesn’t have the riveted windshield bracket.

Looks like mine was cast exactly three months earlier than that one.

I found another site that belongs to Alex Dragone. Here is a link, I hope it works: https://dragoneclassic.com/the-rip-van-winkle-1916-model-t-ford/ I emailed him so maybe he will come back and expound on this subject. I am curious if these two cars might have come from the same dealership? I am goi...

Whatever happened to this post? I don’t know how I overlooked it back in April. This car is from Bristol, TN. I have a 1916 Touring that came from Morristown, TN which is about 70 miles south of Bristol via I-81. This car was bought from the original Family, that bought the car new, in late 50’s to ...

The spark and throttle rods and hand crank were also brass plated steel.

Tourabout

Looks like a typo. The tire on the picture says 30 X 3 1/2

Tourabout

Pretty sure I have a good one. Contact me if interested.
Robbie

Tourabout

Tom,
This reminds me, I never got those manifold clamps you were supposed to send me in July of 2017. I gave up emailing you in November because you wouldn’t reply. 6-8 emails.

Tourabout

I heard that Mark Friemiller, that owns Model T Haven, was looking into starting a swap meet at his place in Iola, Kansas.

Tourabout

This picture was taken in a neighboring county.
Can any of you guys identify the cars?
Thanks

Tourabout

Thanks Randy,
I do remember him from Chickasha.

Tourabout

Does anyone have a picture of Willie?
I talked a lot with him through email but don’t think I ever met him and knew who he was.
Thanks,

I have a nice useable radiator for sale. It came off of a 1911 Touring during a restoration over 20 years ago. Owner said it run fine but he wanted a new one. There is no Made in USA under Ford script. There are no holes in the side. It has the three rivers on the filler neck. There in no tube acros...

Thanks Phil and David for the information.
Wayne, thanks for getting back to me on the ring and felt,
I will keep looking for one to put on my tail light.

Robbie

Tourabout

Ken,
It is a normal looking 1915 lamp with brass top and rim around the lens. Round burner chamber which is correct for a 1915 lamp.

Tourabout

SOLD
Pending payment

Thanks MTFCA

Up for sale is a set of John Brown Model 85 Side Lights. They are complete except for the little red jewel in one of the lamps. See pictures.

Tourabout

Wayne,
I would be interested in the ring for my tail light if you have one.

Tourabout

Has anyone else seen a font like this one that has a metal ring with a piece of felt in it? I have had these 1915 side lights for years but I have never seen any besides these that has this ring. 9E49E71F-D188-4056-A717-DD6B8FAD2AE8.jpeg 61FB4593-EFA6-4D68-A08A-6975364D4153.jpeg 54FBD2F3-B430-4DCD-8...

I usually go but opted out this year. Not much T stuff there since Don Meadows is no longer with us.

Tourabout

Thanks Don, didn’t know that.

Tourabout

I have sent a couple of PM’s and noticed they are stuck in my outbox. Others I have sent went through. I don’t think I did anything different. What could be the reason for this?

Tourabout

Tourabout

I will take a 23”

Tourabout

Wait, that may be the front axle with wheels and wishbone attached....

Tourabout

How are they pulling the T model? How is it attached?
Looks like 4 wheels and a wishbone in the T also.

Tourabout

Sent you a pm

Tourabout

Got it
