  1. The gas tank is under the seat. I’m going to use a Holly NH to start with.  The 5 ball needs a little work. Adding a coil box and battery to go along with the magneto.  Still cleaning up and going through grease cups and cleaning crankcase and transmission. 
    I hope to have it running this week. 

  2. Home safely on Sunday, now the work begins.  Going through and changing oil in transmission and engine, cleaning grease cups, replacing wiring, hoses etc.  It has been setting for a long time but I intend to do some driving with it. It is a 1911 Model M Delivery Truck based upon sales literature I have.  Engine is in great shape with good compression and the magneto has a strong spark. It has a timer but no coil box.  But I have a coil box to install on it so it will have dual ignition. hopefully it will be running by the weekend. Having a lot of fun so far.  Paul 

  3. The terminals would connect as follows  C terminal to the timer, B terminal to battery positive, M was for magneto (not used on your car), and the ground from the battery to the engine frame.  Hope this helps.  Paul

  4. Matt, The shift fork is held in neutral by a piece of spring steel that is attached to the fork with a rivet.  Many times they are weak or broken.  Things to check are transmission oil, crankcase oil, timer, differential, and grease cups on the jackshafts.  Crankcase 1/2 pt of motor oil, transmission 1 qt motor oil, differential nonfluid grease.   I hope this helps.   Paul

  5. Jim, Great to hear from you.  I used several of the parts I obtained from you to keep my car going.  I have over 18000 miles of touring with my car.   I hope all is well with you.  Merry Christmas !!!   Paul

  6. It is located where the front and rear castings of the transmission come together right on the edge.  The number is on the front and rear casting at the 1  o'clock position.  hard to see usually painted over and old grease.  I have 2 transmissions on  my bench and found them on both.  I had to scrape and wire brush to find them.
