    Got a question regarding a T

    Looks and sounds like a great price to me. She's beautiful and worth every dime.

    My "T" is a little gutless!

    This may be too simple to fix. Before pulling pistons and looking at rings, try finding the sweet spot with the spark advance before diving into the motor. Often, if you are running too rich or too lean, you don't get much power out of a T engine. Adjust the spark advance until you notice a real...

    Model t high gear

    make sure the hand brake is all the way forward, or it will keep the trans from going into high speed.

    Brass Polish?

    I used to polish with Simichrome, but bought a jar and then a tube (comes both ways) of Blue Majic polishing cream.

    A Model T in a Model A mans world

    You just have to remember what car you are driving, to operate the clutch on a Model T one foot on the brake and one foot on the clutch, pushing down for low speed will get you as close as you want with no fear. Forget what car you are driving can result in pushing a lot of stuff out of the way.

    Brass model “T”s

    Re: Brass model “T”s I usually get plenty of free starts with my 1909 Model T, but always when the engine is warm after a run and then starting it shortly after. I never heard of a free start after the car was sleeping all Winter, unless you cranked it with the ignition switch off to prime the...
