This is a heavy casting. It’s apparent where it goes, but what is it for?

I'm hoping to find a mint condition tall Canadian nickle rad shell. Dan Hatch sold one a few years ago and if it didn't get used, please write to me.

Is there anyone near Waterford pa that has experience with the model T magneto ? I’m having issues with mine not having much charge on the magnets , have done the in cr flash with 3 batteries and a dc welder to no avail .
Thank you !

When I was putting the 22 into the garage for the winter, I couldn’t back it up my very low slope driveway. I had a bunch of things to do before I could get into it to find out what was up. I took the transmission cover off today and I can’t see anything wrong. The triple gears look fine, the drum shows no sign of heating or cracking, and what...

If you've got an early T here's an engine for you. According to the T SN listing, this engine was in a car sold in Dec. 1911. There isn't a casting date on the engine (that I've found). The SN on it is 88211, So this was probably in a 1912 Model year car. However, it could have been in an 11 sold late. Here in Ky we didn't have a title law until...

After finally getting the engine to run in a friend's newly-purchased '26 T, it was noted that the ammeter did not register a charge even when the engine was revved up. The ammeter was wired backwards (of course!), showing a charge when the lights were tested. Once the ammeter wires were corrected, turning on the headlights gave a discharge on the...

Last year I bought a very original early model year 1914 touring that has a late November 1913 engine. It has some transition parts like a two piece driveshaft and likely the original carburetor that was used for the 1913 model year, a Holley S. The car was in running condition when I got it, but for some reason, I really had a hard time getting...

I recently saw the post about the frame riveting tool that sold on eBay and was curious if anyone has any information about the Stevens T-50 tool? It seems like a very helpful tool for our hobby.

Last week my 26 sedan ran so great but this week there’s a slight missing in the exhaust and a noticeable loss of power. And when I shut the engine off there’s a noticeable vapor coming out of the choke. 🫤 shorting out each spark plug seems to have no noticeable change in engine sound.
