more parts to identify

[4tford]

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.

[Farmallcub49]

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.

[redmodelt]

The gas tanks both look to be Model T, radiator aftermarket 28-29 Model A.

[34coupe]

the two tops look like they might be for a horse drawn buggy.

[yachtsmanbill]

Not too sure, but did the model A have one radiator support rods or two? Maybe a '32 B model?? ws

That is a 28-29 aftermarket model A radiator. If you look close there is one brqacket for 2 support rods.

[yachtsmanbill]

That's what I saw and wasn't sure... ws

[4tford]

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

The 5 disc pieces sure are a joke. Wheel adapters adapted to Model T hubs!

[redmodelt]

28 -29 had two support rods and screw on radiator cap. 30 up had twist lock.

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.

[yachtsmanbill]

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

[4tford]

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.

[yachtsmanbill]

I cant do the math... Wood wheels have 12 spokes with 6 bolts. Hmmm. ws

[4tford]

this is why I ask. Yup I get six as well Wonder what they are for??

[van Dyck]

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.

[yachtsmanbill]

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

[4tford]

The pic above shows both sides of the spacers.

[yachtsmanbill]

Your first post show two spacers with T hubs installed. Id like to see the back side of the HUBS, not the spacers...
Look around here for a while... ws

[4tford]

no longer have the hubs, passed them all on to a new owner.

[yachtsmanbill]

WHEW !!! I read that to include the spacers AND the hubs, no? ws

[t42]

The adapters look like 5 bolt T hubs (5"BC) onto 5 bolt A wheels (5-1/2"BC). I had a set just like these years ago that JC Whitney provided.
I have a strange set (5) of 5" BC T wheels that take the '28/'29 hubcaps and not the standard '26/27 caps.

That is no way to measure a bolt circle.

[Dick Webber]

I had those adapters figured to mate T wood spoke hubs (6 holes) to late T wire wheels 5 hole 5 inch spacing.

[t42]

Take a piece of paper and cut out a 5" circle, and take another piece and cut out a 5-1/2" circle and lay them over the adapter and see how they line up. You will know that A and T items are used.

Just for the record the hubs adapted a five bolt T wire wheel ( hard to get) to a model a 5 1/2 pattern ( easy to get)....

[Dick Webber]

Thanks. Now I finally get it.
