better photos of the 1918
 

I was asked to share the hood repair photos and other so here you go.

I had to take off the passengers side engine pan to help keep the carburetor form overheating, seems to have done the trick. Almost have the headlights wired up. Need to have the front wheels re spoked, not in the best shape to re finish, plus a bit wobbly.

Beautiful just beautiful. I love this. Let me know where you are getting your spokes from.

There are 2 guys here in Denver, both a bit o money so I have to save up for it but I am sure they will come out fine. Both guys are very good at it and have been doing them for decades.

Thank you 32 Chevy vet. I will give them a shout. I have a 1923 rolling chassis I'm thinking of making a speedster. I appreciate the info.

Hammerless-12 and 41 panel mark if you go on my post Winter build project T body there are photos of the jig
used to replace the spokes. And you can also see the spokes I clear coated them no sanding.
I got the blue prints from Steve if you need them he may respond with them. if not let me know and I will look them up.

32, thanks for the note about your thread. Fantastic work on the T. I understand that there are several sizes of spokes if you order them that way. Anyhow nice work.

thanks for sharing.

Yes you must know who made the wheels. I Think their are two one has a 1/2" tenon and the other has a 5/8" tenon.

Thanks MercMan. I am going to try to get it out this weekend and get some photos in front of a historic Coke sign that was discovered during a demolition locally. Should look pretty neat.
