manifold washers

[glenn in camino]

In all the years I've been working on Model As I've never seen any original, before July 1928, manifold washers as shown in the judging standards. Do they really exist. Does anyone repo them? If not, why not?

Glenn, They really do exist. I never seen anyone offer them as repro, but it seems they wouldn't be too hard to make. Do you need them for your Tudor? I have a couple, but haven't looked at them in ages, so I'm not sure of condition. Send me an e-mail if you need them and I'll see what I have.

Yes they do exist, I have a set ready for CA67, and gave a set to a friend who was restoring a June '28 Fordor.

I have a set for my May 28 Phaeton. I think Mick Isbell reproduced them at one time.

With all the cars produced before July 1928, it seems odd that there aren't more of them still arround

i believe these were used to about July '28
