The Ford Barn

I had a bunch of problems trying to to ask this on the MTFCA website so I will ask it here. Ihave had this for several years. I removed it from a round gas tank that was pretty much ruined. I assumed it was Model T. Looking at Bruces book it says they were brass. So whats the deal with this identical on made of cast? The tank was not Fordson so I am lost on what the story of this is. Thanks Rod

1911 tank and yes the bulb was cast of iron. The screw in ones were of brass for a few years before they too went to iron.

Thank You, I had it on e-bay 3 years ago and really got blasted for it. May try it again one of these days. Rod

I'll check my 1912 T tonight, I think it may have the same bowl.

That would be cool. I have a freind restoring a 1912 touring. I do not know what he has as far as the fuel system. I owe him some parts anyway as he gave me an origianl mirror bracket for my 29 delivery. Rod

Went and looked and his 1912 has the next style. Will be selling this one. Rod
