The Jalopy Journal
Thanks for the knock info. That noise bothered me also. I just have not heard enough Model T's to determine if it was problematic or not.
Hello Everyone, I think I figured it out. Bruce and I outsmarted ourselves, I am pretty sure we have the coil wired incorrectly. My guess is by...
Sorry, everyone. Not much has been happening on the build other than what Bruce has done. Life has taken another crap on our family. Now my wife...
Forgotten Ford - Thank you, for the encouragement. I have not done too much in the last month or so, although Bruce has but it's been very small...
JERSYBOY, The mountain board gets very little use. It was a Xmas gift and there is not many places to ride it. Also riding alone is not much...
Hi Limey Kid, No real good reason for leaf and coil-overs other than very inexpensive for us. They were old VW (rear) and motorcycle (front)...
Hi, I had to rearrange the garage to get other cars on the lift for maintenance. So, Bruce worked last weekend to get this T set up as a roller....
Hi Everyone, We did a little more on the T. Passenger door was installed a few days ago. I had to move cars in the garage to get others on the...
Hey everyone, thanks for the good words. Clayton, The pipe that will "brand" everyone as they get in the car is a bit of contention:). My...
I will put in my 2¢. [IMG] Jim
Clayton, Since we don't have the steering column in we have no reference notches. I was planning on using a rod to move the cover manually. I...
We have a Model T starting question. We are OK with adjusting the carb. to get the motor started. But we will need to adjust the timing. I...
Hey, the carb is a Carter WA1 481S. It has been rebuilt and is ready to go. Also, I will be in attendance for the Start Lizzy Party.:)
Blownfuel and Koz your post times are the exact same....that is quite a coincidence. Bruce, you just missed Koz's post.:confused: And I know...
Hi Everyone, Nice to see the new people following the thread. Sorry it is slow right now we are pushing the "Lizzy" build and just gathering...

Hey, I will jump in on this one. I stole these examples from multiple Model T motor rebuild sites. Oil Leaks Remove pan and inside retaining...
Mr Model T. Thanks for the brake lever suggestion it makes sense to me. We are running Rocky Mt. brakes. That will be one of our next...
Wow....we actually did something. I can tell you how it went. 99 bottles of RTV on the wall..... Take the AUX trans apart. Clean and...
OK....I will put in my 2¢ as a co-builder of this hot rod. We picked the name because we want to paint the block, tranny and wheels a nice medium...
I put the AUX trans back together last night with the gear shaft in correctly. No gremlins in the shop this time! I put paint marks on the...
That looks like a flathead 8ba in front of a Model T? I hope it is used to help a good koz. Figure that one out! See, I can post. Jim
"This box is meowing."
OK OK....Bruce keeps whining that I need to post something on the thread I started. 1) I don't need to post every time something gets...
Hello again everyone, Disappointment has struck Lizzy! The weather in Ohio has given us crap so the painting has been put on hold....
We did more sanding last evening and Bruce patched the passenger side panel. His phone died so we will have to post pictures later today. We are...
MrModelT, That is great and just what we needed to get us busy to work on the car as the weather gets colder. That is pretty close to our...
Thanks for the info. Clayton. We are making plans for some alterations to help us with clearance issues. We can do some grinding and cutting to...
OJ--- We put the 2 sides of the rear end together and used lots of rtv just like the model T guys suggested. Then I look on the bench and...
Welcome, from Malvern OH. We are just a little south of you if you need help.
