Majestic generator output control
I thought this was interesting. It’s a period dash mounted rheostat that controls the voltage from the 3rd brush to the field windings. It acts as a remote third brush adjuster. A manual voltage...

Re: Voltage regulator
Wouldn’t the 10-12 amp output of the Ford tractor (NAA and later)one I thought of using be more appropriate with the amperage output of a Model A generator than a 35 amp regulator?

Re: Voltage regulator
I would only have to make a new terminal off the field wire which was connected to the 3rd brush to the field on the regulator. The armature wire which went to the cutout would go to the armature/gen...

Re: Voltage regulator
I spoke to him last fall. It was $110 plus shipping. I drugged my feet and didn’t get one then. It might be too late now. I didn’t buy one from Tom Wesenberg also when I had a chance.

Re: Voltage regulator
I emailed and called James Peterson. I guess his phone has been disconnected so I don’t know his status now.

Voltage regulator
Does anyone know if James Peterson is still doing his voltage regulators? I emailed him the other day but haven’t heard anything back yet.

Gland rings counter bore
Does the block have a counter bore for the gland rings like the exhaust manifold do? My block doesn’t show any sign of any counter bore.

Voltage regulator
Is anyone producing voltage regulators any more? It looks like Fun Projects are out of business and I haven’t seen any recent posts from Tom Wessenberg.

Re: Roadster top boot
Thanks for the info. I had found a 30-31 boot. If you ever decide to change to a 31 boot keep me in mind for your 29 boot.

Re: Tire cover with mirrors
Yes they do vibrate. I already have them on the car. I didn't know how they would look with the Ford logo tire covers.
