Model T

I am uploading the pages from the 1919 to 1922 parts book. Hard to get some in the fold. This should have value as it gives all the timken bearing and cup numbers if you need to rebuild one of these transmissions.

The earlier transmissions/ pre 1922 had a sliding gear transmission lock. The difference in ratios according to the parts book are all in the high and intermediate sliding gears. The low and reverse sliding gears are part number 31919 for both transmission cases.

There were a number of different transmissions fitted into the same case. They had different gearing ratios. There were lots of options from 3.7 to 1 up to 5 to 1. They all take the same case so ought to fit any of the cars. Internals are different depending on the gear ratio in the transmission.

The 1919 to 1921 EG and EH took the same transmission case part # 31889. 1922 to 24 EK and EL took case # 100700.

It looks a lot like the cowl lights on my second series GE studebaker 1928

Not a 1940 st ude commander . They had running boards.

The oil gets thinner when it is hot. What weight oil are you using?

The never fail raccoon trap. Get a large metal trash can. Using heavy multi strand wire attach a small leg trap to handle. Set the trap in the bottom of the can. Add some canned or dry cat food in the bottom of the trash can. Put the cover on the trash can. The next day you will have a trapped racoon. I caught seven of them from my chicken house using this method when all else failed. And you don't have to worry about trapping other animals because they can't take the cover off like a coon can.

That last comment has to be a joke. I hope...

That would be true if we didn't have hundreds of year of suppressing certain history in this country. Even today the battle to not tell the whole story goes on. We need to tell all history not just parts because someone might feel bad. I'm sure this will be pulled but I had to say it.

Guys the second KKK was organised on top of stone Mountain the year before it was purchased to build the confederate memorial There are some pretty strong racist parts to its origins. Just saying there are two sides to the story.

In 1948 they went to replaceable insert bearings in the rods. When I rebuilt my 1940 I got rods from the newer engine style from Steve Allen. You should check with them and see if they still have rods and if so will they work in a 1937 engine.

What is the size? It looks very close to the clocks in 1940 studebaker commanders and presidents. Fit in the glovebox door.

My guess is a light six 1920 to 1922. After that they had single piece windshield and different parking lamps. The light six was marketed in Europe quite a bit. There is still a tile ad for the light six on a building in Seville.

Great car. My first car was a 64 Fairlane hardtop with 289 and 3 on the tree. I loved that car. Died of rust.

Some mid 20's studebakers had oval was control panels but this doesn't look quite right.

My local John Deere dealer carries them in various sizes in stock.

And to muddy the waters further I have a 1948 F-4 and the grill bars are not chrome, painted.

Do you have any pictures of the under neath of the car. I can't see what is modified on the car from your images?? Looks like a right hand drive export model to me.l

There will always be nay sayers and doom predictors. I for one have always been interested in different and interesting things. In the 1940s near my grandparents house in Rochester there were two old ladies who literally drove a Baker electric to church every Sunday. This sparked my interest and i have watched keenly the development of the new electrics. The technology has steam rolled ahead despite cultural resistance. last spring I was finally able to bite the bullet and got a Hyundai kona electric for under 30,000. Best car I have ever owned. I like to tell people it is smarter than I am. A joy to drive. Before you dis them go out and test drive one. There were people who refused to try a computer when a good old typewriter was so much cheaper. Until they actually tried one and discovered spell check and all the other niceties that made writing so much easier. Who today uses a typewriter? Go out and test drive one.

Not a Light Six. They used a conventional clutch.

Rambler classic.

Depending on the year, many old cars used the same type of dash light used on tractors through the 1950's. Steiner tractor supply sells new units. They come in black and chrome. https://www.steinertractor.com/JDS495-6-Volt-Dash-Light-With-Bulb

Have you unsnapped the interior upholstery panel after removing the door handle and the window crank? Handles are held on with pins accessed by compressing the spring in the grommet? First you remove the trim interior piece around the window by removing the screws. After all that is out of the way your should be able to access inside the door and detach the bottom metal track from the window lift mechanism. Then the window can be manipulated up and out of the door.
