They look very familiar to me but I can’t place them. Anybody got an idea ?

I have a few, not sure of the ratio.
They are not easy/cheap to ship.
I have one with a cracked tube, maybe I could get what you need and ship a little cheaper, but it does sound like work.

Send me an email if you want, Dave

Andre, that is a manifold for a heater.
All the little dimples are screws for a shroud that goes over it and directs hot air to the floorboard.
I have one too, with no shroud the same as yours.

I have to did to get a measurement but they look at least 23” maybe a little bit bigger. Looks like 8 bolts on the hubs. You can see a large slot for the lug clamps and the spokes look a little bigger than a T also...

Can someone please let me know what year these roadster top irons and bows are for.

Bruce Klawiter, I still need your address for the plugs, thanks.

Funny part here is, I don’t own ANY vehicle that’s eligible for coverage. 99 Subaru is too old and 270,000 miles is just slightly over the qualifying mileage. And that’s the newest thing I have.

Lots of fun here ! The '13 gambit didn't go the whole nine yards for me. The "representative" apologized he couldn't find a 2013 model T, asked if it was a 2013, I had to tell him it was 1913.

Yikes on the wheel, on the bright side...possibly there's nothing wrong with the rear axle.

We did get to the ice cream stand and the dollar store on the way back the other day,

I had a head gasket leak on my car a while back after putting a used aluminum head on it. (What I was using for a straight edge, turned out to be not so straight). Had the car running and drove it.

So I have a front wheel with a lot of side to side runout. I found a very nice looking wheel I want to try.... but it looks like the hub is out farther than my others and the spokes seem to be bowed the same way. I see no evidence of it shifting. The clear is not showing any marks. Can I loosen the ...

My first thought was aircraft. Wouldn’t need a crank if you could spin the prop.

The gasket(s) between the pinion housing and center section are what would be used to adjust depth. Ford did not have a gasket there, not even listed in the parts books. Maybe not as precise as the adjustable setup, but would be fine for most applications. The modern type, still have to fit the upp...

Probably a high demand for road apple

removal in his neighborhood....

I want to see more of the AMX beside it !!

Start with the basics like it never had started....
Check spark, timing, fuel and compression.
One of them has to be the culprit.
Could be the valves are hanging up.
A little MMO might help.

As I understand, the fiber gear was supposed to be quieter than a metal gear.... but they don’t last for long. I was a little guy when the gear let go on our way to east of Columbus to the family reunion. Coasted into a driveway just past the 4way stop in Homerville. A town where if you sneeze drivi...

I backed mine out of the garage yesterday so it didn’t get crap all over it while I machined a couple brake rotors.

The driver looks to be having a good ole time...
The passengers look petrified !!

Glad you found it Steve !
That wasn’t the problem you were after to begin with though.
I hope the valve job and rings did the trick.
Anxiously awaiting for it to come back to life.

I love trench art. I have a few pieces I picked up over the years. It’s nice you have a piece from a family member. My wife draws the line with lamps though!

You mean no leg lamps Danny ?....

Steve, in my opinion, If you’re sure the ignition timing is correct.... I believe the engine is too tight to get the initial speed from cranking it to fire off....

Been driving mine.... Delivered a radiator shell to my buddy to haul to Homecoming for me and another fellow. Found a nice looking wheel in my stash for my left front.

B-25 I believe....Same as used in the Doolittle raid on Tokyo.
Wonderful piece of aviation history.

I have a couple Mark, I will have to get them down off the wall and take a picture.

Thanks to all the ones who sacrificed all !

Wife and I drove to Western Reserve National Memorial Cemetery where my father is... and sadly mom will be joining him in a couple days since her passing this Saturday at 90 years old.

I can appreciate that Stephen offered an apology. But he obviously has Tim’s email address or he wouldn’t have bought the washers and got an address to send the check...just sayin. And maybe check the Mail a little better before deciding the package was not sent. Open mouth, insert foot. Good job ke...

Who sells Hartford tubes? I understand they are the best quality available.

I got mine from Coker

I bought a couple Hartford tubes with rubber stems and had no issue with my 30X3.5” Hayes rims. Stem slid right in, I run 55psi in the rear and 50psi in the front and have chirped the back tires stopping before with no problem.
The Hartford tube seems a little thicker than some other brands....

That looks more like just a gasket blow out to me... As I understand, electrolysis occurs when an electric charge is created from a water pump or something rotating in the cooling system. I would make sure that the head surface is flat as well as the block surface. Be sure to tap and clean out the h...

A family friend had an early Bantam Jeep when I was a kid. He had it at a campground we were at with the T club one year and his son and I drove it all around the place. It was a real blast for a 14 year old kid. American Bantam was the designer of the Jeep, but lost the contract before the war to W...

Engine has not been started in a couple of years. Mixture knob counterclockwise about 7/8 of a turn. It did start once, and ran for about 4 - 5 seconds, roughly.

Just curious, is it not worth the trouble to repair the lip where the washer rides ?

I have a pair of bronze washers with the spiral groove....

The best I can say without actually seeing it is...
It seems the wedge was fitted to the worn part of the hole and then drilled and tapped.
They are absolutely using another axle.

My friend Bill is helping another friend with a 16 front axle. Took the spindle off and found this previous repair to the lower threads. Looks like it was worn almost through. Anyone else seen such a creation ? I’d be catching my stomach with my tonsils with every bump if I knew it was there. :shock:

Sold ! Thanks Danny and MTFCA

Met my local friend Bill and his wife for ice cream tonight too. Beautiful day and evening !

No fires, but the line was around the building

Took my 44 year old Harley for a spin today also.
Got more looks in the T though.

I have plenty of mouse droppings and oodles of dead stink bugs.
For the right price, I might throw in a raccoons nest.

Very nice older radiator American Flag set with clamp for neck.
$35 plus shipping, please contact via email through contact information.

Probably worked fine....60 years ago.
I try to wire brush the threads on old crusty stuff before I attempt anything.

I have had gratifying thoughts of being alone in a room with an engineer and me with a bag full of nickels from time to time !!

As far as OTC radiator flush products....a total waste of time. Most are only a detergent and won't touch anything that will plug up a Model T radiator. Years ago, there was a 2 part acid flush with a neutralizer, but that's been gone for 50 years. But it worked !! I agree with removing the radiator...

I use an app called “speedometer simple by Tevfik Yucek”. GOS speed, average speed, miles per trip, nice big analog gauge and a digital gauge. Also a compass.

Happy birthday Clarabelle !! She’s still got it Tim !

I remember Clarabell the Clown on the Howdy Doody Show.

I assume you’re talking steel rod welding, although brazing is about the same.
If you get the metal or rod too hot, it will pop.
Staying in one spot too long or just too much oxygen can also get it too hot. Or too big of a tip for the metal thickness...lots of variables.

Mom always said, “you can please some of the people all of the time and all of the people some of the time”....or was that fool some of the people ? Well you get the point.

Which style of shifter is on it ? Lack of lubrication internally can cause that - how was it shifting prior to "locking" up ? Have you tried to "do the dance" between the low & reverse pedals at the same time ? Sometimes that will do it as that is the best way to shift sitting still. I don’t unders...

How many things are in this here barn ??

This would work, 1938 Indian 4

Message sent

Ignacio, I sent you the wheel and another email per your request. You should see it tomorrow or Tuesday.
I still have received no joy here. PayPal is good thanks, Dave
I was surprised that shipping was only $42 UPS.
I found a recent radiator box worked very nice.

These all will probably need the heat wrench to free up the threads and I can cut the mounts off of the one you pick for easier shipping....
$30 including shipping....

Here’s two pretty good ones...$25 including shipping. I’ll send you an email Mark.
Same if anyone needs the other one.

I'm sure I have a couple Mark.
I'll be over there later today and look for you.

Mark. I have several racks that are pretty rusty.
I'll look later and see if the mounts are useable on the rougher ones....

Not a wish....had it since 1985. 1973 Grand Torino Sport fastback, originally from NC. 351C with 4V closed chamber heads, 11:1 compression. Needs the flywheel replaced and me to finish getting it ready to paint, for the second time. Thought I had a picture, but can’t find it. :roll: (After divorce i...

Here’s 2, they both have some wear but not bad.
The right (dirtiest one) has smoother lugs.

I use UPS only for larger bulky or heavy stuff.
USPS is generally cheaper for small parts, but you do take your chances.
Without a new purchase receipt, even additional insurance is useless. Not sure if UPS is much better.
Packaging is everything....

Let me look for a good one, I have a box full of drums....
Dave

Yes, my guess would be around $50-$60 UPS shipping. If that’s doable I can box it up and check. I was thinking $75 for the wheel plus the ride.
Let me know or email me, Dave

Looks like a good ring and pinion, 13 teeth on the pinion should equal a 3:1 ratio.
Sure wouldn’t take much to go ahead and peer inside....just saying.

Same year my car and dad were born. He didn’t make it that far....
Hi Grandma !

I just saw in the last picture, the part of the radiator I see looks a bit less than desirable.
Not saying that it’s your problem, but.
It doesn’t take very long running down the road under power to get hot with a poorly circulating radiator. But it should run ok, till it gets too hot.

Here’s the one I have.
It’s got one hub bolt broken off and one spoke has a small crack, but looks tight and solid.

I have one Ignacio, shipping might be a killer....
I'll get a picture later.
Dave

Mine is my wife and I arriving at a Halloween party a few years ago. It was about 45 degrees and rainy. The side curtains kept us warm enough that she didn’t have her coat on for the ride home !

I put my 24 on my lift today and changed/replaced the front spring shackles and bushings. Found the right perch was easy to turn and tightened the nut at the wishbone close to half a turn ! Also had a lot of movement at the U-joint ball when applying the handbrake. So I put a shim in it and greased ...

Very nice Tim.

I've got 5 used ones on the next page and another that had a booger in the threads that I filed out (not shown)
