At school,(art dept.) bronze is now about 6 bucks a pound. Depending on how thick the casting is this could easily be 10-12 pounds.

$400.00
I can for no additional cost deliver to the Denver Swap meet Saturday the 8th. This is the larger Weaver twin post, tricycle jack. Use the send message thru here to contact me. Too many scammers. Jerry

Still looking, let me know if you plan to attend the Clinic.

Still looking. Had one good lead, but the other was a scammer. Before you text me a picture, make sure your rim looks like my picture. J

I am looking for this style of spilt-rim. I will be at McPherson for the clinic next weekend, and if you will also be there, I would be interested in looking at your rim. Please contact me so we can talk terms. Jerry

When I picked up mine, it was also missing the punch. Had I seen this ad first, I would have better understood that it did not need a handle. A post with a picture and some dimensions would be great if anyone has the punch. J

If you are interested in putting the original style on, let me know; I have NEW castings. J

I also have one of these presses. It works great. I also have it mounted backward. That is the way it was when I got mine at auction. I had to make a press plate as it was missing. If anyone has the correct dimensions for an original, I would very much appreciate it. If anyone has one with the cup, ...

I was about to ask if it was still being done the first weekend of November. Can't make it this weekend unless I had been able to plan 6-8 weeks ago. Darn, was really hoping to go.

Keith, I have plans to cast a couple out of Bronze, just haven't gotten to it yet. I have the steel plates if you want to make one. You can make it whatever distance you want. I also have the exhaust side plates. J

What type are you looking for? I make several different plates. Let me know what you are look for. J

Somehow, this needs to be located. If anywhere close to me, I will stop by.

PM sent Thx J

I am in need of a set of plans for the 23-25 Roadster, if any out there feel free to drop me a line. Thx. Jerry

Please put me in line for them next. J

Heard over the weekend that Yello Truck Freaight is in the same boat.

Thanks for the work, they look great. J

Congrats Jack!

I have a Question: I am working on restoring my switch plate for my 1924 Touring, the back side terminal cover is this one on the left, it uses tabs that are folded back onto the piece to hold it together. It also has 6 terminations. Because I still do not have this project done, I have decided to u...

In my experience, having a Rucktell, most drivers have changed to a 3 to 1 ring and pinion. This gives you a little more top end. Sorta like a poor mans overdrive. When the engine is tired, and needs to be rebuilt, you will most often start out in Low Low, then shift to High Low, and then High Direc...

Dave, dm me, and I will try and get some pics this weekend. I have hardware from a bed that may work for you. Jerry

Have the dates been set?

Thanks, Dean, that's it!

I try to minimize these types of posts but I have no clue on these brackets. Iif somebody knows what they were meant for, much appreciated. I'm helping a buddy on his Model T project and these came with it. Just sorting things out. Thanks in advance.

I too have a NOS moto meter that was stored on its side for the last 80+ years. It will be one of my winter break projects.

Does this new firewall look correct for a 1919. I have a 21 and would think this one should look closer to that one. Many questions. Is the outside edge correct? Seems like the angle to the bevel is greater than it should be. He has new firewall brackets and should raise this a bit higher. What are ...

Reassembling this switch I'm working on and can not remember if the little hole is placed at the top or bottom. I have it circled in green in the photo. This is riveted and I only have one set of rivets so don't want to mess it up. The nuts and bolts is to hold it while i rivet it together. Am I cor...

Per Ford Drawing the rear crankshaft flange is .316/.320 then finished ground to .3125 give or take. This should give you a starting point. J

I have gone to the swap meet in Richmound every year starting in 2015. Last year because of the Nat'l tour in Richmond the date was moved to follow the tour. I looks like it will be back to the first weekend of June for this year. The same weekend the Denver MTFCA chapter is having a Model T only sw...

Ment to insert this pic also.

Here are a few pics from the afternoon, Steve was gracious enough to talk about Spark Plug restoration and installing metal Valve Stems in new tubes.

I don't ever recall it being featured on the cover of the Vintage Ford or Model T Times. I've seen the car, know the original builder and he was on the old forum, so maybe he's here. If he posts here, great, if you get tired of waiting, let me know i'll give you his contact info.

Still taking RSVP's, the caterer has a number for lunch and so not able to add to that number, but would still be nice to have a number if your coming. Dinner on Friday is open and so no reservation needed but again a head count makes it better for the restaurant to handle a larger crowd.

Up to 25 now, still have a few days. J

We'er at 21 pre reg. Still needing some people to talk about tools, we have a little over half the time allotted for this filled.

Customary Bump back to the top. A FYI I've only had so far 14 pre register, not enough to even get a caterer involved. Lets hope we don't have to cancel. J

I've got saved emails from June of 98', back in the day of dial up. Has when I first started a 486DX compac that was ok, the problem was after work (5 o'clock) I would try and log on to check the form and e-mail, and all the High School kids would be on there and it may take 20-30 minutes to make a ...

Monday Morning Bump

Ok I finished the clean up on my aluminum case Warford this week and today I found a used CI case on eBay thanks to a fellow forum member. Same seller had an aluminum case. My brain went to an Oh, and Will it mode, and came up with a couple of questions: so If anyone here has the answer I'd be grat...

Having a little difficulty reading part of the print, anyone have a cleaner copy?

Just todays Bump[/size]

Thanks Dan, that will work for me. J

Right along I-70 at the west edge. Raining a good bit right know, expecting it to change over to snow in 3-4 hours. Forecast is 3-7 by tomorrow afternoon. No plans to take the T to coffee in the morning, it will have to wait till next week.

Just a bump to keep it relevant and so far those interested in bring tools are angling away from Ford Tools, so if you want to talk about and show your Ford stuff let me know. J

this pic, posted earlier is of the 09 front axle. Am needing the equivalent but for the later axle with room for the spindle arm hole. Help?

Cris Essaguards(sp) plane in the MTFCA museum in Richmond is equipped with an aluminum head and uses two spark plugs with two ignition sources.

Thanks Steve, I missed that. A question has come up about where to send a check, there is no need to send us the money first, Just let us know you are coming, this way an accurate count can be made. J

My phone number is 785.32.3993 and please use the clubs email: sunflowercrankers@att.net to both Reg and confirm lunch, and any tools ideas you want to bring. Thanks Jerry

dadnmeinTm.jpg I used this pic and downsized it to work. It is a picture of my farther and me ( I'm about 18 mos old) about ten years before he started on the restoration of the 1924 touring he bought in 1948 at the age of 21. His plans was to put a v8 60 in it but never got around to it. On the Na...

Lunch, Cutoff date to R.S.V.P. is Tuesday January 22nd. I have to call the caterer with the total a li...

Here you go George. If on a Windows machine right click this pic, go to save as, remember where you put it on your computer then open paint not 3d paint and you can do this by finding the file where you put it, then clicking on it once, then right clicking and scroll down till you get to "open with"...

Soon to be a non issue as most everyone gets used to the new forum.

OK YES IT'S IN ALL CAPS SO YOU WILL NOTICE. RESIZE YOUR PIC THEN SAVE IT AS A .GIF THIS WILL BE THE SMALLEST FORMAT AND SHOULD UPLOAD EASILY.

I went thru 5 pictures trying to change/upload and each time I got the same thing, file needs to be 90x90 and smaller than 21KB. It finally downed on me that it was restating the obvious, and even when my file was small enough so when you get a pic small enough to upload hit submit if it isn't small...
