    Kudos to Snyder's- Good vendor alert

    [/url][/IMG] I also rebuild Messerschmitts and BMW Isettas and sometimes getting anything from Germany is a task. It seems businesses and individuals go on vacations more than they work. I have had parts ordered and in stock from Germany only to have them shipped 6 weeks later. I have not...

    Magneto question

    To answer your question most set their coils for a “hand crank start” to work best between 2 to 2-1/2 volts so that would be the minimum a magneto would need to produce to get the engine started. Good magnetos at idle produce 5 volts and at road speed 30+ volts.

    Model T Transmission

    First thing to look at are worn pedal cams and the slow speed notch. On every Model T I have owned they were worn out and needed replacing. Then check the band linings out and if they need to be replaced buy new springs also. Finally, Yes the pedal stems are usually bent from years of stomping...

    I usually deal with Snyder’s or Lang’s for parts. Snyder’s sells both Model A and Model T parts. Lang’s only sells Model T parts but also has a huge inventory of good used parts

    Model T Haven

    Most will go for scrap metal. All the large Model T vendors are in their 70’s and 80’s with no interest by younger members. Like auctions of the past the auctioneer will spend less than 2 minutes at each large pile and most will be loaded into scrap trucks and gone in a week. Sorry to say but...
