  1. Proper wheel alignment has the tire contact with the ground in a direct line with the king pin. This reduces scuffing in a corner and makes steering easier. The larger the tire diameter, the more pronounced this tilt will appear to be. Left and right.....The standard for left and right are as seen by the driver when seated in the vehicle when normally driving. The wheel most prominently pictured ( one the drivers side of the car) is the right front wheel. If the tire tilt is not the same side to side, perhaps the problem is the left front ( on the right in your picture and this illustration).
  2. Complete and ready for restoration, no spark but that you can cure that when it is apart during restoration, right hand clockwise rotation. $250 Packaging included. Can post worldwide. Happy to answer any questions.

  4. Can anyone give a positive ID on this unknown application water pump? It appears to have piping for an opposed 2 cylinder engine. Yes it is for sale.
  5. Obviously a Dodge radiator on the Overland frame. Maybe someone can say where the serial number is located.
  6. Very good 24" Firestone brand rim with bead and lock rings, type "C" and will replace types A B and E. This rim has 2 wedges inside where it mounts to the wheel, they are 1 1/4" apart. This rim was used later in 1910s and into early 1920s. Happy to answer questions, can supply more pictures, priced at $150.
  7. The reason your #1 fits the best is that it is the correct lug for your Firestone wheels. This lug was used without a wedge ring for the lug to press against, thus the extension back over the felloe band. If a wedge ring is used then the lug is quite flat. Attached illustration is from a rim book and the " symbol 155" is their designation not Firestone's. I may have some of these, let me know if I should dig them out.
  8. ZR4 magnetos were offered as plain " independent" magnetos or could have a choice of options, does your application need options such as dual or ?? Picture of your switch will tell. Also what rotation do you need?
  9. Not positive but am putting out there 1906 Stoddard-Dayton Model E.
  10. California still uses the date of first sale from the manufacturer as the year on titles. We do not look at the registration to determine the model year when buying parts!
  11. The tires, sidewall and tread design along with being slightly large, are a giveaway that this is not a 1914 photo.
  12. I believe that to be a Holley. Very similar to what was used on 1913 Studebaker 6 and no doubt many others.
  13. That style distributor cap on a magneto was popular on many makes of cars for export. Magnetos were desirable on cars in remote locations as the car could still be hand cranked or push started and run in case of generator or battery failure.
  14. Morgan, I think you do not have a ring washer under the plain bridge washer in your upper picture. That is why the bridge washer can turn. First picture here shows what you should have, either the plain bridge washer with a separate ring washer ( on the left) OR a bridge washer with swedged on ring washer (on the right). Second picture shows a selection of plain bridge washers, wing washers (made to be separate pieces from the bridge washer), and bridge washers with swedged on ring washers that were intended to stay together as an assembly. Plain bridge washers are intended for use by themselves, without any ring washer ( either as a separate washer or swedged to the bridge washer), on stems that are vulcanized to the tube with a rubber vulcanizing pad as in the upper picture in my first posting ( which is a modern drawing of reproduction stem and tube).
