JB coil box 1910 style
Are new coil boxes made that have JB fittings and will take later coils (1914-27) ? I have the switch and key. If available, does someone wire them?

Re: JB coil box 1910 style
Darel,
Yes both styles are available -- they are made to order.
Info at Lang's see: https://www.modeltford.com/item/4250S.aspx for complete box for use with original 1910-11 style coils
and https://www.modeltford.com/item/5000JB.aspx is the box only for the later coils but it looks like the 1910-11 Jacobson-brown. It does NOT include any of the hardware, coils, or switch etc. But I'm 90% sure the builder can build you whatever you want.
From memory -- NOT that reliable -- I think R.V. Anderson's and his brother probably make them? See the article with a nice JB coil box in their hands at: https://www.hemmings.com/blog/article/t ... -brothers/
Respectfully submitted,

Re: JB coil box 1910 style
We do make them, but only in the original style to take the original style coils (which we also make). This is because when we got started, there was already a fellow making boxes for the later coils, so that market was covered.
Besides, I have an affinity for keeping things original
