Seller's comments about 1923' Ford Model T

Do you just want to be in the parade or do you want to lead it with this 1923 Ford Model T coupe? This is the vehicle that put America on wheels, and this example has a more unique style and a driver-ready attitude. The Model T coupe is an interesting car. After all, were used to seeing plenty from the series, but most of them are open-top touring sedans. The coupe is a rarer body style that adds a touch of sophistication to the everyman car. After all, you get a weather-friendly full body with upright glass, a two-piece windshield, and an overall distinct upgrading style. This is Henry Fords famous black, and while it is not the original paint, it will have most people thinking it is. Thats because the 1950s application was done in a now-classic lacquer, and you have all the right aged in appearance that only comes with time. And there are terrific little details, like the manual windshield wiper, MotoMeter radiator cap, and a toolbox behind the trunk. This even has a tool kit that comes with the sale. The closed body means you get to have an interior done in cloth. Just like the exterior, this was refreshed in the 1950s, but the classic mohair style has aged in so that onlookers will assume its original (we wont tell the secret if you wont.) The dash is a simple affair, with just controls for the ignition system and an ammeter. Controls will be familiar to anyone whos driven a T, but if youve never piloted this famous Ford, dont worry because millions have mastered it before you. Working the controls is part of this cars charm. The Model Ts powerplant was the trusty 177 cubic-inch inline-four. This might not be large by todays standards, but the torque-filled powerhouse knew how to easily outpace the horse and buggy. Youll be surprised at how much youll enjoy driving it, and how intuitive the maintenance is. The motor has a very honest presentation, so it has the kind of style where you wont be afraid to work within the ample space of the engine bay. In fact, it has also been given more recent investment, including newer wiring and a newer water pump. And the result is a car that loves to be a runner. The sale comes complete with the owners manual, service manuals, and build receipts. This one has an honest style thats terrific, right down to the wood wheels. So as much as you love seeing it in the pictures, it will be even more fun showing it off at the events. Dont miss this T coupe, call today!
