I searched for past forums and did not find anything. I’m starting to focus on my wheels and notice some spokes are slightly bent. Does anyone know who can straighten rims and true the spokes. I did see a video of a original rim straightening tool. Any help? Thanks.

Hello to all. It is with some bitter sweet emotions to say I sold my 1913 Touring T. Owned it for 8 years and had a blast wrenching on it and mostly driving around the back roads. I still have my ‘30 Model A and thought it was time for the T to go. The man who bought it is a genuine person and...

A sad day as I sold my 1913 Touring. Owned it for 8 years and had a million dollars of fun. Learned a lot while wrenching on it. The person who bought it was as nice and genuine as a man can get. He will continue to upgrade the car and was pleased with the condition I had kept the car. I still...

Hello. Is there information for repairing/restoring the rear light. Can the brass pieces be replaced. Thanks.

I acquired a model A engine and transmission at know charge. The serial number has been removed - seems it was machines off. What does this do to the value? I want to rebuild for the heck of it and if I wanted to sell - would no serial number be an issue? Thanks guys

I have the head off my 13 motor and was wondering can I test the magneto with only turning the engine over by hand cranking? Thanks guys

I read the past post referencing engine removal. Know one mentioned using "Lifting Hooks" as shown in the Model T Ford Service Book. I do not have lifting hooks -but THINK lifting straps would work as well. I am sure I would have to remove the intake and exhaust manifolds not to damage them. The...

My 1913 Touring has the following serial number 304972. Would like to verify the block/engine year. I looked at one of the parts supply house list and could not make out what they referencing for numbers. Thank you guys

Good Morning - I am looking to purchase a cover for my Touring T. The car is kept in a garage but stills gets dust etc... . Seems there are polyester and other types. Looked at MAC's - polyester type - seems to be OK however I thought I would ask the Forum if there is one that is preferred over...

The numbers, symbol and letter are stamped on the wood at/under the tank lid. 1 800 symbol 1 M. My understanding these are to be indication of month and year of manufacture. I can not figure this out. Any help? Trying to attach a photo not sure it will. Thanks

I searched earlier Threads to see if there was information about All White Tires. What I have been told is T's ( Early Brass) came standard / offered all white tires. What is the word on these. , Thanks

I found a crack in the block at the manufacture stamp on the right side between 3 and 4 cylinder. I hear there is a repair that can be done without taking engine out/apart. But I rather have it looked at by someone who is familiar with block repair. Any suggestions would be helpfull. Also...

Hello, been a while since on the forum. Fall and time to get cars up and running. What is best way to trouble shoot ignition and starter. I'm looking for the " Remove this before that and don't have to remove that to get to this" experience. Battery is good, starter will not engage. Thanks Guys

I drive the "T" - it does not sit in garage, I do the same to the "A". I live in Florida -so no freezing cold days. This happened in August 2014. I had her tuned so well when starting, it fired up immediately. Went for a drive -ran around for a couple hours stopping here and there. One of the...

The last time I drove my '13 it was after I timed her and she started with little effort. Drove her around and put it in the garage. Came back about three weeks and went to start - but could not not turn the engine over, I pulled on the handle and was able to get the engine to turn over, pulled...

Dropped my motor off today in Clearwater Florida. The guy is good and has great references. He is to survey motor then let me know what he thinks and then we move forward. Looking to see the completed by end of July this year. No worries on the the time line as I have plenty to do until its...

I have nasked how to set timing and was very successful -Thanks to aal . I drove around for a three day break and the engine started acting like it was running out of fuel, so while I was rolling I went to battery and all was fine -then back to Mag and it cut off - back to battery fine. When I...

Have '13 T. I'm sure there is a post for changing the transmission bands. I have not been able to find one. Would like some direction where to find reliable info to do this. can this be done with transmission installed or does it have to be removed. and what special tools would be needed. Thanks!

I am new to the Ford Barn and look forward to this whole thing. My 1913 T all of a sudden stopped starting and is kicking back on the hand crank at the 11 o'clock position. Before this -it would start fine and would usually start at the 12:30 position on the hand crank. I just ordered new...
