Mark, per the reply from Allen from down under. They will not fit my car.
Sorry, for the late reply.
George

Allen, thank you for the heads up.

Mark, if these spindles will fit the T - 203-4. Photo attached. If so, I will take them.

Take a look on Marketplace. A party in your area has four that may be of interest to you.
I have no interest to these items.

This is the bi- line, to find the listing.
Vintage AAA License Plate Topper Sign Auto Gas Oil

Question, I had a wobble on the driver side and after removing the outsize bearing, I found that the outside cup was cracked.
My question is this, would the marks as shown on the spindle require that it be replaced?
I have obtained another hub and and replaced all cups and bearings.

George Schmidt

By the attached photos, the outer cup developed a crack and had to be replaced. Once the old one was removed, I dry fitted the new cup. My question is this, does the cup need to be pressed in. Mine just dropped in and has a great deal of slack. Note the toothpick sticking in the gap. Purchased the c...

I was repacking my front spindles and noticed the marks on the Spindle. Running a finger nail over the marks, you can feel them.. ( photo ). All of the other surfaces look unscarred, cups, etc.
Should I replace the Spindle or try to resurface it.

George

John, found your oil leak correction.
Thanks for the advice and I just ordered my WOSP starter.

George

I would like to hear from members who have purchased and installed the 5099-12v Model T WOSP stater.
How does it perform and if the standard bendix assembly fits.

Thanks

George

We agree to disagree.
It still looks good, on my wall of mistakes. LOL

RVA23T, thanks for the confirmation of my part, being a spring perch remover.
As the photo shows, it has the correct APCO number

George

Thank you, one and all. I now have a starting point.

Thanks

George

Please correct me, if I’m wrong. Did I see a post some time back, an artist hand draws your car, off of a supplied photo..?
If you have a name / number, please let me know.

Thanks Mark. That will be my first task tomorrow.
Mark, if you remember me, you gave me a great ride in your truck, a few years ago.

George

A quick question to the Greatest information page on the net. I had my Model T out for a ride this evening, about 35 miles. All went well with the new radiator on a warm day. ( I did have a small loss of antifreeze, due to over filling it ). I know, I’m a dum $#@&$. My problem was a wobble in the fr...

Mark, if you look at the attached photos, I have installed a starter solenoid. I’m checking the wire size but believe I put in #2 . If you can give me some direction, I’m whiling to try anything.

My Model T was converted to 12 volt before I purchased it. The previous owner hand started it during my first inspection, saying , the floor switch was defective. Once I got it home, I purchased an after market switch from Tractor Supply. At first the starter would turn very fast and the floor switc...

Thanks Craig, I will go in this direction.

I received my new Brassworks radiator but before installing it, I want to flush the motor. I have been researching different ways to do it.

Thanks for the fast replies from both of you. That was the way I was leaning but needed a push.LOL.

Scott, I like your line. Tyranny under the guise of law is still Tyranny

I’m putting in a new Brassworks radiator into my T. My question is this. Is it useful to also put in a thermostat, like the one in the photo.

George

The brass face, as shown, is very nice.
Asking $200 + shipping. Sorry, no international shipping.

Terry, thanks for the reply. But the used radiator market, is what I have in my cars now. LOL

With the long wait for a new Model T radiator, has anyone retrofitted any other type of new radiator to their cars.

Thanks in advance.
George Schmidt

William, please find the bumpers and brackets I have. I was told they are Model T. If you think they would fit. Let me know.

Can I ask my fellow Model T members. What is the felling on how I want to attach friction shocks to myT. The photo shows a dry fit. I still have to bolt it ti the front axle.

I want to thank everyone, for all the help I received on line. I finally got my coupe to start today. It has been stored and not started for over four years.

George, I have had the car for a few years. My son stored it for about four years. I did change the oil. It has great spark. The gas tank has to be cleaned, the tank liner put in it, has started to leaching into the gas.

I have a 1927 coupe. It hasn’t been run for a few years. It is very hard to crank by hand and the starter has a difficult time turning it over. I was told to Jack the rear end off the ground and try cranking it , with the hand break all the way forward. The motor now turns over by hand . As I click ...

Please find photos of bumper brackets, I purchased. They look to be 26-27 Model T. Can Someone confirm, for me.
I realize the Model T didn’t come with bumpers in 1924 but, I hoping to attach them to mine. Has anyone done it?

Thanks
George

Just went to Snyder’s and it appears they do have them. I will call them in the morning before ordering.
Thanks for all the replies.

No one in Nebraska does that. A local shop tried to fix the leaks, with little improvements. Have you used a shop. I’m willing to ship.

I’m looking to purchase a new low style radiator and found these two listed on Ecklers.
My question is this, has anyone purchased either and how did they work.

The customer service person was very nice but could not determine if made in America or any difference in them?

My question is, has anyone mounted 1926-1927 bumper brackets on an early Model T.
The mounting brackets on my 27 coupe are very different from my 23 Model T.
If so, can someone send me photos of how you did it.

Thanks
George Schmidt

Thanks to everyone who replied. I think I will try Scott’s method. Now, just to find another body to help me. LOL

I will be removing the engine from my 1927 coupe. It looks as if I should remove the clutch peddle to get the engine out.

Has anyone installed bumpers on a pre-bumper Model T.
The attached photo shows the parts, which may not be Model T. Along with the Model T in need of the bumpers.
The brackets from the car, to the bumper, were not included.
Any help, would be appreciated.

Does anyone have a drawing, with dimensions, of a crate, to ship my Model T engine.

George

I’m trying to have my 27 Model T engine rebuilt and collecting the needed parts. It appears the standard Scat Crankshaft and Stipe 280 cam, are in short supply.

A few days ago, a discussion was started on how to prevent wire breaking. In the post was a photo of a coil box, with a different type of nut, being used.
My question is this, has anyone used these and how good do they hold and were do you find them.

I put a roof frame on my Model T truck and stretched the vinyl over it. It came out very nice and tight. I now notice that the vinyl has space, between it and the wood cross members,that could attract air flow. My question is, has anyone used adhesive to glue their vinyl to the frame work. Thanks Ge...
