Although I've never seen one, nor have I heard that these existed, my guess is that when in current production, there was a drawing of a finished engine block with all the machined areas' dimensions. Does anyone know what the "when new, finished, and ready for assembly" did the block's intake and ex...

Would anyone know what year range this piece was originally made for?

Hummingbird flew into our house 47 years ago.

I took her apart in 1977, steam-cleaned all the components, and put them into the attic.

In 1988, I began restoring her.

I can't tell for 100% certain if the wrench currently for sale is sold, so I wanted to post a WTB for the wrench.

Richard;

Thank you for the suggestion. I looked through Lang's, Snyder's, and Chaffin's websites to no avail.

I'll write them next and see.

Thanks again!

Some years ago, I saw an '11 T that had both a Stewart speedometer and an eight-day clock. What I remember about them was that one bracket held both the speedometer and the clock. I'd really like to find that bracket, or have one made. I had written to a man, somewhere in Massachusetts I believe tha...

Some years ago, I saw an '11 T that had both a Speedometer and an Eight-Day Clock.

The difference between this car and others was that both were held by the same bracket onto the firewall.

I'd truly like to find the same type bracket, or perhaps get one made.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Larry, please see e-mail; I'd like to buy one of the speedometer brackets.

Thank you.

Beautiful lamp, Terry!

Please see e-mail; I'd like to buy one ifvthe brackets.

Thank you.

Is this considered a right hand drive or left hand drive horn?

I want to see if I have a tap for these threads.

Can anyone tell me the thread size for the studs that thread into here and hold the manifold clamps?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

I've had excellent luck with Noah Stutsman, a true wheelwright.

I've posted a link to his website in Baltic, Ohio.

I understand that Carmine Red was a common color used to paint the earliest T's.

Can anyone help me find a modern color chip so I can order some Carmine Red paint?

Any help would be appreciated.

Can anyone help with where I can find a color chip, and/or a color code?

Since you're so close, go see Mike (Bender) and see for yourself. His work is exceptional.

Soon we will begin the task of lifting the body off the frame and putting the new round gas tank in place.

I'm wide open to suggestions to prevent rust forming in this new tank...

Does non-ethanol gas pose a smaller chance of rust forming, or is it and ethanol gas equal in that regard?

The block in our '14 was cast 106 years ago today...Happy Birthday!!

Mike;

I toyed with that, too.

In the end, I sent my axle to Dan Hatch near Birmingham. It came back, flawless.

I don't recall exactly how much I paid, but definitely worth it.

I'd like to buy two of the second from the bottom running board brackets, or two like the picture showing just one.

Please send me a picture or two at bill.everett@epickett.com

Thanks.

Ben, please send your list to me at bill.everett@epickett.com

Thx.

The nut came off fairly easily.

I've sprayed PB Blaster and let it soak in for several days, but no look; it's in there pretty tight.

I'm open to suggestions on how to get it out.

Thanks.

Tom, I'd like to buy the puller (looks like a claw) at the bottom of your picture.

Please let me know how to send you $$.

Thank you.

Bill Everett

Wonderful video, Pete!

Rich, where in Florida are ypu?

You and I have probably driven by many of the same fields!

May have been me, Tim.

I just stirred the 50 / 50 mix of Acetone and ATF; I will check on the contents Monday or Tuesday to see if they're any easier to disassemble.

Thank you, Richard.

Acetone and ATF, yes, I think I've read that on the forum before.

However, I don't remember the mix.

Is it 50 / 50, or something else?

Anthony, I sent you an e-mail.

Thank you, Bill.

Bill Crosby...

Do you remember the p/n of that puller at Harbor Freight?

Clarification...

What puller do I need to pull the entire hub and drum off the axle?

Bob, please see e-mail.

Steve, I'd truly love to find one of those for sale, or rent!

I meant brake drum, not hub.

What modern puller will work to remove this hub?

Please e-mail pictures to me at bill.everett@epickett.com

George;

No, gas only, and probably non-ethanol. No, I will drain gas out during non-driving time.

Question...Is rust less likely to form if the tank is full?

I'd like to find a pair of '26 - '27 front spindles.

Please e-mail a few pictures and how much $$ you'd like.

Thanks.

I was lucky to find a new gas tank.

Before installing it, should I clean and/or seal it to prevent rust?

I second that..good to see you back, Bob.

Jeff, sent you an e-mail.

Anyone know about when the Ford script began appearing?

I'd like to buy this crossmember from Bob, but only if it's correct for a '12, AND it will fit a '12 frame.

Please weigh in here.

Thank you, Steve.

I want to prevent "Analysis Leads to Paralysis" on this project!!

In an earlier post, those that responded told me pretty clearly, "You have to remove the body of an '11 Touring in order to remove and replace the fuel tank." Before I undertake that project, I'd like to give cleaning the tank (without removing the body) another try. My idea is to fill the tank with...

The pinstriped front axle is on my '11 Touring. Note how there are no holes for pop-in oilers, AND how the bottom leaf IS tapered. The other pictures are of an axle I bought a couple of years ago.

We have to leave Thursday, mid- morning.

Are none of the crews expected earlier than Saturday?

I'm currently in Seattle for a few days and would like to be there when the New York - Seattle crews arrive.

When is their eta, and where in Seattle?

Thanks.

William, I sent you an e-mail.

Nice crankshaft, Steve.

I was planning on coming over to Petit Jean on the 13th, but wanted to ask if anyone knows whether or not the meet will even be held.

I've been watching the flooding on TV, and I do hope the meet is "on".

Anyone know?

Roger, I'd very much like these.

I'm sending you a PM.

Thank you.

This picture was posted in an earlier topic. I have some pitting on my block, and I want to get some of the High Temperature RTV that's mentioned in the post where this picture was.

What High Temp RTV should I get? If you have a picture of the tube, please post it.

Thanks.

Thank you, Mark.

I had, but have misplaced, a copy of the frame's dimensions.

The one I had was of an earlier frame, like an '11 - '12, and it may have been drawn by John Regan.

If anyone has this drawing, please post here or e-mail it to me at bill.everett@epickett.com

Does anyone rebuild Ruckstell's on a professional, paid basis?

I bought this unit last year and cannot seem to find the time to rebuild it.

If there is anyone who does this, please let me know.

OR....

If not a full-time rebuilder, but you know how, please contact me.

1911 Touring...Gas tank needs to come out for cleaning or replacement. There are screw heads not easily seen in this picture all over the seat area.

Instead of using the spoons, I'm wondering if anything in the modern tire world would remove these tires from these rims without damaging either one.

Let me know of anything I should look for, or ask at a tire shop.

Thanks.

A common them in oil posts is to not use oil with graphite in it.

How can you tell if the oil you're thinking of using DOES have graphite in it?

Pictured are the old, blue floorboards as well as the body of the '11 Touring.

Also pictured are the new floorboards.

I don't know what type paint to use, what process (brush, roll, or spray), or the color's part number.

Any input is appreciated.

Thanks.
