I am interested in the 1917 to 1922 latches, 1, 2 and 3. Send me an email with better pictures and price with shipping please.

Thanks Dan, I am interested. Please email photos or post here. Thanks

I would like to find a good used or reproduction early water inlet connection that was used from 1909 to 1912 supposedly. This is the style with the heavier boss around the bolt holes. Please shoot me an email with photos. Thanks

Would someone happen to have an early water inlet connection original or reproduction? This is the one with a heavier boss for the bolt holes used 1909 to 1912 supposedly. I was given the name Eric Vandenbeemt as one who reproduces them, but I am unable to locate a contact for him.

Hi Mike,
I would like to purchase this if still available.
Shoot me an email please.

Dan

Yes Clint, I had originally ordered a 16 foot but found that they could not do the beavertail option unless it was a minimum of 18 feet.

The rear ramp door is 92 inches or 7 foot 8 inches, enough to clear a tall early T.

Has anyone had any experience using a product "Lucas Oil Super Coolant" in their Ts with aluminum heads to control electrolysis?

Still needed

I am in need of a usable Radius Rod Ball Cap, part number T217. Must be the forged style used from 1909 through early 1914. Please send photos to my email or post here. Thanks very much

Ok guys, I wanted to let those that responded to this post, and anyone else interested about Enclosed Trailer Options of my decision thanks to the tons of advice you provided together with my personal research into Trailer options. I ended up purchasing a Celltech Trailer built to the attached spec...

Would someone please tell me if this two-piece 1909 Two Piece Timer B.jpg 1909 Two Piece Timer A.jpg timer is original or original reproduction? I am in the process of pulling my 1909 engine from my car that has been sitting for forty years and never run. I need some assistance identifying this time...

Walt,
I tried emailing you. Please let me know the measurement of the width center of hole to center of hole at widest point in the front.

Thanks

When were the long and short arms used? I have a '24 which is the correct one for that year?

Thanks Mark, but I am looking to find the classified listings from 2019 through 2022.

Just to clarify, I want to search chronologically postings from 2019 to 2022. Thanks
Dan

I will take it Allen, email sent.

I meant to say 2019 to 2022

How does one search for posts between 2029 and 2022?

Hello Ron,

I would like to purchase four coils from you. Let me know the method of payment you prefer.
Thanks
Daniel

Thanks Miles for those pics. If anyone else has any ideas that are different please post here. I would like to see the wheel nets or anything else.

Some of you have recommended that when installing E-Tracs in the floor that they be placed inside the wheels to allow straps to hold the front and rear axles down close to the wheels. In measuring, I come up with 40 inches between the e-tracs. Does anyone have any input upon the position of E-Tracs...

Chris, I pretty much did all what you suggested. Then I removed the Horn and took it to Julius Neunhoffer where he tested it and found the horn itself operates as it should when connected straight to a 6 volt battery. Mounting on my car and closing the horn switch I only get 2.5 volts which is too l...

Sent email.

I will take it John,
I will mail a check, please email me your address, do not post here.

Thanks
Dan

Thanks for posting that photo and info on your trailer. That is about what I am looking for. Who is the manufacturer. Does the trailer hitch crank get in the way of the tailgate when dropped?

George House,

Could you please either post or email me the specs on your TRex trailer you wrote about earlier? Thanks

Richard, let me know if you still are looking for a set of hood shelves. I have a few.

Daniel

Dale,

I would like to see your build sheet and photos. Please send via email.

Thanks

Jim,

I will be happy to share the spec sheet once I have it finalized. Should be soon.

Thank you Russ for pointing out about the tailgate clearance. That is very important and may have saved a lot of trouble.

Hi George. Thanks for the comments. I was thinking of having a winch installed by the manufacturer of the trailer, that way they could control the way it mounted to the floor from the get-go. What do you think of the coffin front verses the v-nose? Do you think an 18 is plenty big enough and that a...

A couple of years ago I posted a request for information about Enclosed Trailer for hauling an 87" high early Touring car. I got a lot of responses for which I appreciate very much. Freighter Jim provided detailed information and from that and the others, I have formulated a list of what I would wa...

I will take the Hood clasps. Will send email
Daniel

You might try Newspapers.com
They may very well have what you are looking for.

Chris, Thank you for that great dissertation on Horn repair! We are now departing on a ten day trip so will work on this upon my return and let you know. It is great to have such kind people on this forum. Will give you a shout out in a couple of weeks.

Dan

Jerry,
I am posting two photos of the interior of the horn. When I depress the horn button, the diaphram at the back does move a little but no sound, just a suttle click.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I will take it apart; what do you suggest I look for?

Dan

I confess that I have not taken it apart as I do not have a clue what to look for and have never attempted to. When the horn button is pressed, I just hear a mild click. I have checked all the connections but that is all.

I am looking to purchase a good working Horn with Bracket for my 1924 Touring Car. My horn on my restored car finally went out after 40 years so am looking to replace it. Please let me know if you have anything. Email through the forum or call please.

Ron,
Do you require a set of 4 rebuildable coils in exchange?

Located one early Model 160. Thanks MTFCA

Bill has not responded to my email or phone as of yet.

I am in need of a good functioning or rebuilt Stewart Model 160 Speedometer head for my 1924 Touring. Mine seems to have frozen up. Please contact me through the forum or by email. Thanks

Thanks to all for responding. I have contacted both Bill and Russ, we will see what happens. Meanwhile, I will post a wanted add in the classifieds.

Anybody have his email or phone number?

Can someone recommend someone who works on Stewart Model 160 speedometer heads?

Thanks
Daniel Snell

I am in need of a replacement 5-foot-long speedometer cable like the one shown in the attached photos. It needs the Stewart ends. This inserts into the cable housing in lieu of the chain type cable. Anyone that can help me locate one, please contact me through the forum. The supplier, Langs, are ou...

I have located one. Thanks MTFCA

Email Sent.

I would like to purchase either outright or with core exchange if needed, one serviceable Sediment Bulb for 1924. This would be part number 2902B. The handle must turn and not leak. Thanks. Please email to Danielsnell2@twc.com with photos.

Are these originals or reproductions?

Dan

Still looking for a Stewart Cable and Housing, 63 inches in length.

What is the outside diameter?

Hello, I am in need of a decent speedometer cable and housing for my 1924 Touring with a Stewart 160 mounted on the right side of the dash. The length of the cable should be 63". Call me or email me if you have something. Thank You very much.

The noise I am experiencing comes from the exhaust pipe area or perhaps the muffler. Although it is not super loud as if something was seriously wrong, it is much louder than other cars. I have tightened the exhaust manifold nut and changed out my exhaust pipe and muffler purchased from the vendors...

What is the secret to a quiet running T? I recently had notice that my friend's T was way quieter than mine, but he could not tell me why. Can someone enlighten us folks that would like to not hear so much noise coming from the exhaust pipe area? Even when I replaced my exhaust pipe and muffler on ...

Thanks Mark. Would you happen to have a photo or two of this mount being used?

I am seeking help in mounting the speedometer swivel mount to the right front of my 1924 Touring car. The attached photo shows the assembled mount I am using parts. The Stewart parts #11296 and 11295 photo attached that I have are shown on page 64 of Russ Furstnow's speedometer book. They were corr...

Is this still available?

George, what year car are they correct for?

Will this fit a 25 pickup with 30 inch tires?

I am wanting to purchase an Enclosed trailer to haul a single Model T Touring and am looking for some advise on what the size enclosed trailer one should use. I want to be able to go in and out with the top up with a 1924 Touring Car that has a height of about 7 feet and a 1909 that is about 7 foot...

Kim, I am sending you an email about the brass hub fan. Thanks

Larry,
I just got your message, I'm out at my ranch where connection is poor. I'll call you tomorrow. Thanks
Dan

Thank you, I just ordered them. I always prefer Ford originals but they decent ones don't appear to be out there.

Hi Larry,
What year is that off of?
I'm in need of a cable and housing for my 1924 Touring. Tell me the length of the housing and the condition of the drive and cable. I may be able to use it.
Thanks Dan

Still looking!

still looking.

Frank, thanks for posting the photos, they look a bit rough to me, I am hoping to find some in better condition if they are out there.

Frank, the length would be approximately 54 inches from the end of the threads to the clevis hole where it connects to the brake cam.

I am looking to purchase as quickly as possible a pair of good used brake rods for my 1924 Touring. Must have good threads that will chase well and no wallowed-out holes in the end where it attaches to the brake cam lever. Thank You

Daniel Snell
Danielsnell2@twc.com

Thanks guys for all the helpful input. I guess I'll be looking for a good usable pair of original rods 1920 to 1925.

Here are two additional photos. Thanks guys.

So the two on the left are the earlier type, Forged?

I am in the process of hooking up and adjusting the emergency or parking brakes and realized I have differences in the ends of the rods where they attach to the brake cam lever. I am attaching a photo showing the differences. My car is a 1924 Touring and the rods that were on the car are the two on...

Where are you located?

I was totally blown away when I saw Rich and his Model T in Yellowstone two days ago. We pulled over and I had a nice chat with him. His Tudor ran well, so well in fact that I kept passing him when we pulled over for a quick stop along the way. Thanks Rick, it was great meeting you and your wife. A...

Marty, that is a nice looking Touring you have there and I also like the name of your beautiful state, "Commiefornia". I used to live there back in the 70's when it was still fairly sane, I could not imagine what it is like now. Anyway, what I am needing to know is how that front seat back attaches...

Thanks John and George, I shall do some research to see what I can find.

I am trying to figure how the front seat back attaches to the front seat riser on a 1917 thru 1922 Touring. There are nine holes that go thru bottom of the kick panel then through the bottom of the seat back. They then would hold the bottom tack strip. Could someone post a photo (or email me with o...

Anyone have a contact for Bill Barth whom Larry Smith indicated used to rebuild the pitman arm ball? Thsnks

Thank you all for spending time to help me out, I appreciate you sharing your information.

Sorry, forgot to attach

: Original 1921 screws and nuts

Rick D Here are the original 1921 screws/nuts that were removed from this car that I believe to be correct based upon the number I have, size etc. No other quantity of screws/nuts from the original stash fit the pictures sent. Size of these are: 1/4 x 20 x 3/4 and there are 18 of them. I'd like to k...

Anyone know about earlier models, I have a 1921, could be different?

What size bolt, 1/4 × 20 x 3/4?

What size bolt, 1/4 × 20 x 3/4?

It's hard to see but it appears like they are slotted head machine screws with square nuts, correct?

Thanks Richard, are both sides with the screw head toward the side of the body and are the nuts all square? Just curious as to the method of assembly, perhaps it was somewhat consistent.

In the process of assembling the body sheet metal together on a 1921 Touring and have a question regarding the joining screws used to attach the rear center sheet metal to the side quarter panels. I would like to know what was used originally (i.e. slotted machine screws 1/4 by 3/4, square nuts). If...

It is a 1925 RPU. Parts listings show part number 3547 for that year.

I have a pitman arm ball that measures .965 by .992 is that too out of round to be used successfully? if so, what are the recommendations, go with a repro? Thanks

I would like to add my name to the long list of persons wishing condolences to the Anderson Family. R V has also helped out me several times including building a set of coils and coil box for my 1909. He was a special person that will not be forgotten.

RIP R.V.

This is for a 1924 Touring that I have been working on now for three years. Just waiting for a friend to come over and help me put on a new top, everything else is nearly ready. Thanks

I had an experience shipping a Model T from Texas to Spain a few years ago. You must go through a shipping company and it was like pulling teeth from an elephant to find one but finally settled on Schumacher Cargo. They specialize in shipping antique cars. This was about 7 years ago but it went ver...

That would explain a lot. I thought they looked different than the original type. Correct me if I am wrong, but the original type (pictured here) just used the felt for a seal. I was mistakenly thinking that the modern neopreme seal would be hidden by the metal original cover. Anyone use the origin...
