Hi , I came across this and would like to find out what it is. 20210226_111851.jpg

Last post

Right at the base of the E-Brake lever is a circular bit that looks like the hole that the gear lever should go in if one was still attached. Yes, this is a large car and it would be great to ID it.

Is more info available?

Although it's been said that a T will run on practically anything, I put more 93 octane in (after another 60 miles of driving). It definitely ran an easy 45 mp/h on a 10+ mile run and was capable of doing more. But I'm not...

One of the photos show the wheel without the disck. Your spokes are upside down on the hub.
The cut off part of the spokes should be turned to the hub flensh.
I think you should start over the build for this wheel and use furniture wax too.

When a sealant (Ultra Black, RTV, etc) comes in large and small sizes, from now on I'll get the small size. If I buy a large size and use only part of it, the remainder will be useless by the time I need it. If you infer from this that I just tried to use a previously opened large tube, you're right. :)

Last post

I seal silicone sealant and similar tubes with a drop of hot melt glue after cleaning the end of the tube. I just peel it off and start work when I need it, and re-apply another drop when I'm done.

Dimsdale always looked old for his age. He was just 19 in the above photo.
Some said it was on account of having two left feet. Others said it was the
mushroom moss. KD suspected a misfiring kaphistulator, and redid the windings

Does anyone have one handy that they can check the diameter? The one I have is home made. When I put the boring bar frame on a block with original bearings (no sign of pan rails or main bearing pads being machined or molested), it looks to be over too far when mated up to the false cam. I have not checked the center to center which as I recall is...

I did check it last night. The front is .006 under and rear is .004 under. The front part is a snug fit in the bearing hole. Did not check for straightness. Knowing the correct diameter, at least I could work with that, ether by shimming or build up and turn back down to correct size, more then likely would just shim. So yes it is off a little and...

Hi all,

A long time since I have posted anything on this forum. So long in fact I had to create a new user name!!!! Glad it’s still going as strong as ever.

I am looking for a pre NRS project ie A, AC, C or F if anyone knows of anything? I’d love a restored early Ford but the budget just isn’t that big... so a project over time seems a good way...

I’d like to find a cover for this, or I’d like to get the dimensions for this cover. I can maybe 3d print it and cast it in aluminum.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
