Model T saw platform - PA lumber museum

Post by Arbs » Sun Mar 10, 2024 4:18 pm

I was at the PA lumber museum today and they had two model T's there. One is a 1917 runabout that I could see was missing the wiring harness between to commutator and the coil box. After talking with one of the staff, they said they have been pulling parts off of the runabout to keep their Model T saw running. Of course I had to see that, and share it with you.

Apparently during the annual Bark Peeler's festival, they run it for the crowds.
Where is the OBD2 port on this thing?

That is about the neatest and most well constructed doodlebug T model I have ever seen. It looks to have a functioning brake on the transmission and a working clutch to engage drive, both activated by T model brake levers. I wonder what function the siren fulfilled?
