1) From John Deere; a little glass sediment bowl with two separate and very fine mesh screens that are easy to clean periodically, and with a built-in shut off valve that is not only convenient, but a real safety item. This is a "universal" type sediment bowl for many different farm tractors, but works well on Model T's and other old cars, and almost looks "period".

2) From Tractor Supply via mail-order: A universal type tractor muffler. Inch and a half inlet/outlet, compact, straight thru' all welded design to replace the multi-piece original type Model T muffler that commonly falls apart or blows apart from backfire. This tractor muffler fits well, sounds pleasant and similar to the Model T sound and not much louder.
