  1. Joe Our friend KEAN has 2 shells in AU . Why not have one of our Aussie friend hammer one out for you, using his pattern?? Im sure he will be glad to help out. Check out Keans inventory in this picture.
  2. I agree, There are SO many cars to buy, they are only hurting themselves. Im a impulse buyer, strike while the iron is hot!
  3. When I was a kid between 1968 to about 1972 , and old enough to handle my prized Springfield 22 semi automatic, dad would let us shot rats at the dump. We would head up with our cans , back up and dump em out. There was no dozer pushing crap back on the weekends . It was real thrill... My older brother had a 410/22 under over, I think it was a Stevens??? Not sure. It was a nice little gun until a 2 legged RAT stole it out of pickup.
  4. Has ANYONE heard what the price is? Its a dark secret... Ive asked twice and no replys. its a odd way to sell something. I like the car and it would make a fun project keeping it original.
  5. Looks like the car behind curtain #3 with Bob Barker "The price is RIGHT" If it ran and drove .... 3k on its best day. smile...
  6. They made the 1902 Pat Date carbs as small as 1/2 inch pipe. I ran one on my Crestmobile for several years. They are a good carb.
  7. Al Ill send you one no charge for your continued efforts on my present project. Your efforts are not unnoticed! Mike
  8. Yes al Im going to get 6 made. How is your hand healing up?? I hope well.
  9. I bought this great looking filler cap recently for a project Im working on. I like it so much Ive decided to send it to the foundry and have some brass copies made for the future and to sell a few. The opening at the threads is 5 inches!! Ive already started to polish out the wings and wangs so the new caps will finish that more easy. I dont know the cost yet but shouldn't me too bad. If interested in one , drop me a note. Mike West
  10. Thats great news ! Great job Joe, She will operate like a WALTHAM WATCH!
  11. I misunderstood Craig. In at least my case the front end is "Lemoine STYLE" Im sure Mitchell borrowed the design.
  12. Lemoine is the term for the king pin arrangement . As the front end wore its bushings , the slack was removed by adjusting the jam nuts on the top. The king pin is tapered. My 10 Mitchell uses that same arraignment. I think if you look close you can see it. The big brass nuts on the top that are missing on the subject axle appear to be missing They are actually a oil reservoir.
  13. They also catch the parts when the joint fails....
  14. Joe, I got the Woods electric front end blasted, primered, and new thrust bearings installed . Because the new bearings width was shorter , I had to shim them up /I have a great selection hardened shim washers, that filled the order.
  15. Joe , all looks good. This rear end assembly is about done, isnt it? mike
  16. Jim please text me your phone number. To 585 738 1541 or call me thank you mike
