Master brake cylinder.
Installing the master cylinder was easy. Finding the parts for and installing the brake & clutch pedal was another matter.

This is me cleaning the brake/clutch pedal shaft
It took us 2 days to find the brake/clutch pedal shaft and couplings. Our pictures were very incomplete in this area. |
This is Dave starting the process of cleaning the tranny.
We needed to get the tranny cleaned up so we could take it to a Transmission shop who hopefully will be able to adapt a 5-speed tranny in its place. If not a 5-speed at least some kind of overdrive. |
Wire harness
This is Al's next project - recreate the electrical wiring harness. |
Here's the new update - July 18, 2004
We had quite a few things going in June - Local Model A Ford events and the Model A Ford Restorer's Club National Meet in Madison, Wisconsin.
We've managed to get a few things done. The steering is in (still needs adjusting), the engine has been installed and the transmission is almost ready to go on. |
The transmission almost complete. We will have to use the original throw-out bearing. The shift tower is our biggest problem - it is almost entirely rust.
|
Here's Al cleaning transmission bearings and gears - looks like everything is salvageable.
|
The engine fit on the new rubber motor mounts almost perfectly.
I had to modify 1 motor mount - the bolt hole was too close to the rubber and I couldn't get a wrench on the bolt. See next page for more! |
