Refurbished original Ford model A cutouts
City:
Fredericksburg
State:
Virginia
Price:
$60-$70
I'm refurbishing original Ford cutouts. I'm offering a few for sale to see if there is interest. I know a lot of guys like the diode cutout or electronic regulator - that's fine. But I have found that the original cutouts are very high quality and work very well if the points are in good condition and the unit is properly adjusted.
Here is what I do with each cutout: -cut the spot welds and remove the cover. -clean the internals with electrical contact cleaner. -inspect and dress the points as needed. If the points are badly worn, the unit is not used, or swap in a better set. -adjust the point gap, point alignment, air gap and point closure voltage as needed. -each cutout is tested on my bench using a variable power supply and a Simpson 260 meter to verify operation. -cover is reinstalled, then the unit is painted with a metallic paint to simulate the original finish. It is not an exact match, but pretty close. -new terminal hardware and insulators are installed as needed. Below is a video that goes into detail on how I refurbish these cutouts. I realize these may not meet fine point standards, but I have tried to use as close as possible, the correct hardware. For the average "driver" car, they looks good and function as they should. Here are five cutouts that are available. The 2 cutouts on the very left (Oct 1927 - Jan 1928) are $70, the others are $60, plus $9.45 USPS small priority mail box shipping. I need more original cutouts to refurbish. If you have some gathering dust, please PM me. If you have a cutout that you'd like to have refurbished, please PM me.

If anyone wants an original patina cutout, I can do that too. Fully serviced as above, but left with original patina. Perfect for a survivor car or truck.

Re: Refurbished original Ford model A cutouts
I have 4 refurbished model A cutouts available.
The two on the left are for early, January 1928 and earlier cars. They are $70 each. The 3rd one is November 1930 and later, but left with the original patina. Perfect for survivor cars or just every day drivers. This one is $50. On the right is a refinished November 1930 and later cutout. This one is $60. Check out my video in the first post to see how I service them. Shipping is $9.45 US priority mail to a US address. Thanks, Steve |
