Hey all,
In need of the spare tire mount for the 26/27 model t pickup.  This is the mount that goes in front of the driver door.  Attaches to the running board and the convertible top pivot mount.  I have heard these are extremely rare to come by.  
Anyone have one they are willing to part with?

Re: WTB - 26/27 pickup spare tire mount
Someone was making reproduced versions of the original.  I understand that they were excellent quality but I don’t know who it was or how to get ahold of the person.  I now have a 1926 pickup and if someone knows who was producing the carrier I would also be interested in purchasing. But I don’t want to be ahead of you if they only have one, you get first right of refusal.

The past is a great place and I don't want to erase it or to regret it, but I don't want to be its prisoner either.

Re: WTB - 26/27 pickup spare tire mount
I got one a few years ago in a big purchase of 5 cars, all disassembled.  I had no idea what it was until another forum member pointed it out.  It sold for $750 in "fair" condition within about 20 min of posting it for sale.  Grab the one from Craigslist if it's still available!!

Re: WTB - 26/27 pickup spare tire mount
Thanks everyone.  I did find an original and at a decent price.  I was aware of the Craigslist ad.  It has been up for a long time.  Seems to keep getting reposted.
