    Here are a few pics that I was sent by the Cal Auto Museum and authorized to post up. Just a "Sneak Peek" for now.....gotta go check out the museum yourself to see the rest of this great exhibit!

  6. I just saw this thread for the first time; very impressive. I also noticed the use of 1913 White spark and throttle levers and quadrant on the T.

    It was quite a journey and a real honor.

    You noticed! :D Those were from Bill's stash of spares. I had a heavy box and one of my spare wire wheels fall from the garage wall into the T (top down) and hit the steering wheel. It snapped the original aluminum spark control hand lever off. Repairing it proved fruitless, so I got the set from the White as a replacement. I am quite pleased how they turned out.
