    Period Camper Trailer

    I have a period wooden tent camper selling later this week at auction. It is a Warner Auto Trailer Prairie Schooner. It could be restored as a camper or with a little work used in the same way many people use the Mullins trailers. A bunch of original paint and pinstriping are present and it...

    Period Tent Camper Trailer

    If you're looking for a period accessory nobody else has I have a Warner Prairie Schooner pop up camper selling in the Aumann pre-30 sale this week. It would be a neat addition to any collection and would compliment a restored or original T. It needs some smaller repairs and a new tent canvas...

    Two Model A's will be sold in Aumann's pre '30 sale this year. Both sell with titles.

    Deluxe Roadster Question

    Even though the deluxe roadsters upon introduction in 1930 (my only reference on this subject is the dealer letter on pg 80 of how to restore your model a vol 6) came with a rumble seat as standard equipment could someone special order one with a trunk? I

    Commercial Bodies question

    For all you commercial body enthusiasts/experts, this question deals with aftermarket bodies, specifically York. When these companies were producing bodies from 1928-31 were they essentially the same body regardless of make? Or would they differ from company to company? Lets say hypothetically...

    Haha, it kept rotating it to fit, and I haven't used the desktop computer lately so I haven't been able to resize it :o

    1925 roadster

    And if the list I found is correct the mag was rewound. I have a camera but I'm going to have to find the cord. In the meantime I still have to sell my parents on keeping the car. They don't think it's a wise idea for someone pre college to have a lot of money ******* in something like this. I...

    1925 roadster

    I'll have to check, I haven't pulled the car out of the barn yet so I'll have to look at it next time I'm over there. Pretty sure they were sliver though.

    1925 roadster

    Found the firewall! Also found the ignition switch panel. And the engines been rebuilt. Found as list of all he did to it, and I looked through the plug holes and the valves look like the engine hasn't ever been started since the rebuild. They look brand new.

    1925 roadster

    I just bought my first model t, a 1925 roadster. It's been in a barn disassembled for twenty years. The last owner passed away before he finished restoring it. It comes with a stash of parts as well and I need some help identifying it all. There are photos in an album in my profile and I will...

    Motor UPDATE!!! It aint pretty

    No need to cut up any good cars! It sounds like like multiple problems occurred and it would be impossible to blame any single person. As Henry Ford said "don't find fault, find a remedy" If the engine has to be rebuilt again isn't it worth the money to get the car back on the road? It's not...

    Edison Car update from Gilmore Museum

    IMOHO Many cars should be left the way they were when they were in daily use, like the one in the picture and the Edison car. Any one read/ see this before; http://www.hemmings.com/hcc/stories/2011/11/01/hmn_drivable_dreams1.html
