"New" engine for my 1912 Ford Model T. That's a water pump that was an accessory.

when you write "new", is it NEW or is "new to you"?

the reason i ask is that i can imagine that there is a huge aftermarket for those parts, and i think it is in the realm of possibility that a company is making new engines for the application.



a picture of me, my son, and my triumph, right before i sold it. i love this bike. it is probably the only thing that i am expert at in the world. i also hate it. i bought a ducati 900ss less than two hours later.

I love a place I can get gas and a reach-around at the same time.

Oh, and a boat ramp. That's key.

Obligatory pic (I recently did my CFI reinstatement in this plane...)

No reach around; as far as I know that stick figure is a girl.

Original block, most everything else new. Saving my original engine, not many left original. Lots of stuff available for the T. I wanted it period correct, so only has about 5 more HP than original. A whopping 25 HP!

Not ANY Subway, it's the one in Elkart Lake Wisc. Not many places to get a good bite to eat fast up there.
