Evening all,
I recently picked up this wrench. It looked familiar so I grabbed it. From some searching it appears to be the 1910 T1349 wrench. I just want to double check.
Curious too, as to value? I dont really ask that question, but I think these are hard to find. Im always looking to supplement my 1913s fund if I can.

I thought I knew what I was talking about, but apparently I was way off, so I'm deleting this post...

I found this on page 655 in the encyclopedia. Not a perfect match, but awfully close.

I didn't want to reply when I first read the OP, because I am not a tool expert. But I don't think I have ever heard of Weston Mott supplying to Ford. It would anyway be great for someone with an early T wanting to have a "proper" tool kit, but not looking for maximum points in judging. You should make sure the hubcap and bearing nut ends properly fit the designated items. Similar wrenches were used on a number of other cars. Weston Mott supplied front and rear axle assemblies to many marques. Buick was one of the largest users of their axles.

The short answer is: Yes, this is what was supplied with the early cars.
