Wife did an adhesive test with three different products on two different types of scrap panel boards.

I took the water pump off, added a Waukesha Ricardo head, and replaced both tie rod bolts and bushings in my 23 runabout

Went completely through my 1912 engine and did considerable amount of meticulous adjusting and tweaking. Recharged magnets, set magnet to coil ring gap properly, a hundred other things. Runs great on magneto! And Heinz coils that were rebuilt by RV Anderson some years back. Test runs using an NH carb but will use the Holley H1 or possibly the Kingston 6 Ball (I have two of them). I am declaring the powerplant complete and can now move on to putting the car together.

Finished rebuilding my transmission with the help of a fellow club member!

Re: What Have You Done to Your Model T in January?
Wiped off the dust. oiled the front and rear axles and shackles, checked the oil and water levels, checked the tire pressure and freed up the sticking choke shaft. Then drove down to the Museum last Saturday for the monthly open house at the museum. This is the Alpine Historical Society museum. We have vehicles from a buggy, to my Horseless carriage, and a 1942 GMC fire engine which was used locally. The buggy was used in our town back in the early 1900's and restored by myself and several others. And my 26 Touring was restored here in town by me. We also have many other relics of our town's past.
