more parts to identify and possibly price. Anything I part out will be posted here on the Barn before trying epay as a last resort. Thanks Bill

Two different gas tanks. one ion the left has a recessed end cap. Both very clean inside. Possibly never used. Radiator looks excellent but I want to do a leak test before doing anything with it. I think the adapters at T to A but no way to tell for sure.

Both Tops are not T. The red one is probably a tractor sun shade, the other top is maybe for a car, but I don't know what car.
 
Many thanks guys. Really a lot of help. I ended up with all this stuff when a 90 year old fellow sold his farm to move into a care home. I really have no use for it but did not want to see it sit in a barn or shed and rust out. More to come. Thanks Bill
 
Those hubs look like 5-bolt hubs that Ford made for the optional wire wheels! The adaptors? The Ford hubs would be 5-on-5 for the "T". Model A hubs are 5-on-51/2. Model A wheels are more plentiful than the "T" wire wheel. Perhaps the reason for the adaptors? Measure them up, Bill, and see what you have.
 
Id like to see a pic of the back side of those hubs with 10 holes drilled like Swiss cheese! 6 holes for wood spokes and 5 for the wire wheel and using one from the wood pattern would net you ten holes. Then the front with the THIRD pattern for the "A" wheels. YIKES! ws
 
better view of the spacers. Found this info on the net. It was suggested to me that these may be for switching from T wood spoke to wire wheels.

These wheel adapters that will space your 5 lug 5" HUB pattern to a 5 lug 5" WHEEL pattern about 1" inch. SEMA approved and made from high grade heat-treated aluminum. Each adapter is approximately 1" thick.

But these are not 6-bolt to 5-bolt adaptors! And 5-bolt spacers don't have 10 holes. So, are both bolt circles 5", and if that's the case what is the intended use of these? Just kinda curious.
 
So the first pic shows T hubs screwed onto the adapters with one extra adapter redrilled for a bigger pattern. The T hubs (wooden) needed to be drilled and have 10 holes as one will line up. Both front and rear. These really look like offset spacers, but the one hole is slotted so that different lug pattern bushings can be used, as in putting chevy wheels on a dodge. Post a pic of the back side of the T hubs will ya??? ws
