Re: Ford Racer drawing mystery - any idea what this is?
The drawing looks like an escutcheon plate. It does not look like what is on the tank in your enlarged photo.
The faint lines on the drawing may mean that the part was changed but not the drawing.

Re: 50 worst cars of all time?
My wife's grandfather was born in 1903. One time I asked him if he had ever owned a Model T. "Hell no" he said "I wouldn't own that junk!"
At the time he was driving an early 70's AMC Hornet station wagon.

Mark the car runs great. Zoom Zoom as Stan says.
Not ever a hint of fuel starvation with the fuel filter.

Re: U & J carburetor and manifold
The generator was rebuilt by Ron Patterson and has a sealed bearing so the oiler is not necessary. I plugged the hole with a screw which leaves about 1/8th inch clearance.

Re: Why Do You Do it ?
In Pennsylvania one of the restrictions of having antique license plates on a truck is that you cannot use it to haul anything.
A display of old junk that you take to a car show would probably be OK but a load of lumber might get you pulled over.

Re: Wood stove
Raoul, I buy my coal in 40 lb. bags from an Amish gentleman who lives about 10 miles away. It comes from a town 60 miles northeast of Hershey.
Anthracite (hard coal) burns clean. No smoke, no soot, no smell.

Since the front wheels don't seem to be throwing up any dust does that mean that the cloud around the car is oil smoke and exhaust?
