Amazing to watch these super speeded up video's without any crazy commentary or silly music... only trouble is, I find myself eating my peanuts and drinking my beer at a frantic speed too! 🤪🤣
Fantastic to see the nice job you are doing on this one, and that you are keeping the old paintwork, I myself am now restoring a 1918 model T Couplet Coupe'. I live in Sweden.
Though I will *NEVER* take on such a project as this, I still find that I am absolutely spellbound while watching you bring this lovely old girl back to life :) .
Can't wait for the start up! Enjoyed the silent video but I do want to hear it run. I have a 23 runabout, it is nice to see how they built the closed car.
Another step towards getting it up and running. Again, I really enjoy the silent build. But we DO want to hear it fire up! Subtitles give a good description of most of the details. The Sunday recaps finish up with any questions we have. Thanks, and Woof to Walter.
I really admire the research you had to do to pull this off with this old school technology. This is so awesome! Maybe watch out for that wire around the steering column in the firewall. Looks to me it could get tangled when steering.
Only a few steps away from firing up that engine. I was hoping to hear it crank already in this episode but this will most probably happen in the next one. You did the front axle already, right? Now it's just the roof, the floor and the upholstery if I see this correctly. Another project coming to an end. Thumbs up!
Love how this is coming along so far. Excellent job on keeping the patina look. Can't wait to hear it running and see what u got planned for that interior!!!
I don’t know why but the steering wheel looks upside down to me. I also would have cleaned up the clock face. I also am in awe of your talent and drive. Great videos!!!
Throughout the late teens and early 20's, my grandmother drove the T's and/or until we asked that the Iowa Highway Patrol restrict her license due to safety concerns (her's and others in the Iowa countryside).
That car was very first class for its day. It had a clock, dash light, motor driven wiper, window cranks. At least that Is what I have noticed so far. Amazing. Oh yea a generator, battery, and starter. I wonder who was the first owner of that machine. Machine, That's what my great grandfather called them.
I think you should put the two front spark plug wires inboard like the rear two to help keep heat away from them. plus I think it looks better as well. Nice job.
Have you researched the history of this automobile? Where? When? Was it built. Are the numbers matching? You should have found the numbers by now. Enjoying these videos. Keep it up!
It only has one number which is on the engine. It matches the title so I guess that makes it numbers matching. They didn’t start numbering the frames until later. The woman I bought it from said her husband owned it when they met 30 years ago and it never moved in that time. He has passed and she was selling off his stuff. I suspect it sat in the same spot much longer than 30 years.
The clock is a Waltham . Henry Ford went to the Waltham watch factory see how the assembly line worked . Waltham also made speedometers for Ford as well . Ford created his own assembly line ideas to his factory. I would restore the clock for this car if I could. I restore pockets made by Waltham . I have never seen a clock from a Ford it be pretty cool to see one.
Hi ... I'm a mechanic I didn't understand what makes water circulate in the engine .... I didn't notice the water pump ... good job your ... congratulations
It uses a thermosyphon cooling system. "As water (or coolant) is heated in the engine's water passages, it becomes less dense (lighter) and rises up through the hose into the radiator's top tank. As water in the radiator is cooled, it becomes more dense (heavier) and sinks. Over half of the water in the radiator is above the level of the engine's water passages, and its weight pushes that cooler water at the bottom up through the pipe and back into the engine where it's again heated and rises into the tank, and on and on".
@@Jerod_Helt of course, if you need the original, then without a water pump, but if you have a hot climate, it will overheat. It is very interesting to look at the process of work, we practically do not have such machines, only in museums
I have watched each episode and now I'm on #12 . Just sorry ... I don't like the crinkle finish of the dash . Certainly , this is a purely subjunctive opinion. But , I would have finished it to a gloss coat...Otherwise , terrific work.

You sure made that dash change from dirt to gold! I love how there is a mechanical clock installed, as well!

Excellent look forward to these videos every week! Keep them coming .
Excellent progress with the T. Can’t wait for a road trip with Walter aboard!

That little clock is so cool...!
Amazing! And hard to believe that these are things made nearly a 100 years ago!
after 92 years that clock still work that is crazy

What an impressive design.
I started fellowing you because of the Bug. But now I've become a fan of everything else thanks.
Thanks buddy👍

Great work, she is a beauty. That is cool the clock still works and so load. Cheers 😀👍
very nice videos. I had 7 model A´s but never a T. And thanks to your videos it gives a great overview of things !!!!!!!
Love how this is coming along so far. Excellent job on keeping the patina look. Can't wait to hear it running and see what u got planned for that interior!!!
Great progress. Too bad the upper hose was cut too short, but you live and learn :)
Amazing restoration thus far. Wow!!!

Any glass shop can replace that broken plate glass with safer laminated glass. :)

@@Jerod_Helt Thanks. Ford stamped the serial number on the chassis on the Left front on the "A"s.
fantastic
Me encanta el FORD T saludos desde Montevideo Uruguay
might I suggest the dash lights are all so floor lights .... if bright enough
As my Dad used to say, I've cut it off twice and it's still too short.
LOL
Nice work.... Very detailed.
Thanks. Great job so far
👍💪 excelente solo lo restauraste
Impressiv. Great project. Whats on your playlist by the way😃

Excellent!!
Missing things are normal. still great jobs
It amuses me how he appears to make silly mistakes because he's rushing. But it's the video that's on fast forward LOL!!
When are you going to clean and redecorate the interior of the T?
Soon. I already have all the fabric 👍

@@Jerod_Helt thanks
@@Jerod_Helt with this system of cooling you can't stay in dense traffic with on engine))
Can't wait to see that engine fire.
これだけキットと部品、配線図が手に入るなら、レストアはそれほど難しくないですね。
Hey that bottom part of the windscreens broken! You can't drive with that.
Nice job boss
I think i would have cleaned the face of the clock and other instruments....Looking shiny is part of the restoration...
very good- Amaurí , from Brazil.
question why would the speedo be on the passenger side?
The ticking sound of the clock is TOO HIGH, it probably (not probably, SURELY haha) needs internal oil maintenance...
That looks like a spanking new radiator! Berg’s or Brassworks?
Yep, and it was expensive! Bergs I think... I got it from Snyders👍
I don't think the dome light is working ?
You have to wind the clock?
How long did it take to do all of this? Forever.
How long to start the engine? 2 seconds
Muy práctico debes tu se muy diestro en la mecanica
Эркек экенсин брат 👍👍👍👍👍
Don't forget the oil. The radiator did you recondition it or you bought a new one.
I bought a new radiator 👍
@@Jerod_Helt I seen the miracles the Pakistanis do as far as radiators, I thought you probably try. Good skills man, all the best
Didn't the horn mount over top the head ? 🤔
Yeah but I didn’t like that I would have to remove the head bolt to install the horn. I used a bracket from a later car to mount it were it is now👍
@@Jerod_Helt 🤔 makes sense ! ,, was just curious
Maybe I missed this , but did you put oil in the engine?! Sure don’t want to see anything happen to this beautiful rebuild.
no split washers on the manifold bolts?? i suppose what you have is more oiginal?
I bought the bolt and stud set recently. I don’t think it came with lock washers. But that’s a good idea. I think I’ll add some👍
@@Jerod_Helt I know from bitter experience that they loosen easily.
👌
genial!
Why did you remove the water pump? Model t has cooling problems. The pump, although not original, was installed for a reason
It was broken and the general consensus is not to use a water pump👍
@@Jerod_Helt of course, if you need the original, then without a water pump, but if you have a hot climate, it will overheat. It is very interesting to look at the process of work, we practically do not have such machines, only in museums
how do you know how to do all of that?
I learned a lot of it from TH-cam 👍
@@Jerod_Helt you are doing a very good job restoring it!
А помпа, которая стояла на этом двигателе? Охлаждение с ней намного эффективнее же...
На самом деле он предназначен для работы без насоса, и его не рекомендуется устанавливать.
@@Jerod_Helt Do you use a translater or know a russian language?
@@СильвестрСталоннне I wish I could speak Russian. I use google translate 👍
Did these cars not have a water pump and just rely on the syphon effect?🇦🇺
No water pump, no fuel pump. They didn’t get an electric starter until pretty late in the production. Cars before 1919 were hand crank only👍
please update on fj40
I will be working on it again soon👍
@@Jerod_Helt cant wait,
👍👍✌️
👍👍👍👍👍👍
you forgot the GPS :)
Find any hidden silver dollars in a doors
ok
