Seller's comments about 1927' Ford Model T

1927 Ford Model T Coupe Before the Model T became a production reality, Ford and his engineering team built around 20 prototypes before debuting the car in 1908, naming each design after a letter of the alphabet. By the time the team had reached what would become the Model T, the revolutionary features they had designed worked together to make it durable, reliable, and easy to operate. The Ford Motor Companys internal naming scheme stuck, and Henry Ford agreed to the Model T production name - naming the car after the 20th letter in the alphabet. Thx Slashgear.com For consignment, a 1927 Ford Model T coupe street rod showing 6,363 miles which are not actual. This tall but compact ride is riding on Weld wheels and packing a 289ci V8 up front. It may be a T but in our book, this green machine is an E-ticket ride that has one objective, providing fun for its driver and passenger. Exterior This light, bright green is called Metallic Peat and is striking on a car that was only available in more subdued tones like black, brown, dark green, and fawn gray . The rounded radiator shell streamlines the nose where an upright grille would be and the louvered hood flows back to a wide cowl, right as the sharp angles and square cabin begins. No chop here as a broad windshield and tall side windows prevail with a condensed cabin that will likely put occupants behind the B-pillar. A curvaceous rear waterfalls down to the round tail lights and exhaust tips that emerge from underneath, while an open wheel configuration showcases the 15-inch Weld DragLite wheels with massive 29x15.5x15 tires in back. The glorious polished headers meld into a side pipe and there aint nothing to muffle the sound we anticipate. The vinyl roof is in great shape, as are the metal elements. One small bubble down low and some scuffs where the inner tire rubbed on the body are the only imperfections we find Interior Mocha cloth door panels hold a pleated map pocket and are framed by a black vinyl kick panel and both doors are in nice shape. Tall black velour sport buckets fill a good part of the cabin and show some robust side support. The driver grabs a white plastic steering wheel, also in great condition, which tracks down to the dash painted in white and metallic peat, delineated by a red pinstripe and housing the center instrument cluster with ivory faced AutoMeter vintage dials on a ribbed aluminum backing plate. The shifter and handbrake rise from the floor covered in a textured rubber mat while its back to mocha for the headliner which wears a red dome light. A small and unlined trunk holds the battery box and has enough room for your show chairs and a cooler. Drivetrain Is there a 289 Cobra missing its engine because this one is decked out with Cobra accoutrements, specifically the ribbed valve covers and air filter housing. This ones been bored .040 over and distributed fuel via a 4-barrel carburetor. Behind it, a T5 5-speed manual transferring power to the Ford 9 in back. Of course, headers are the mode of exhaust extraction and power brakes as front discs and rear drums slows the roll. Undercarriage This street rod has some street dust on its uniformly black frame and green belly, but minimal surface rust and no oil is seen, so we would classify this as a clean underside. Suspension here is made up of a 4 bar and a transverse leaf spring in front and a 4bar with yellow coil overs in back. Drive-Ability Despite its modest size, the cabin is a fine place to be and visibility is made viable by the large side windows, while the narrow rear window does create a small blind spot. We crank the 289 to life and the unencumbered exhaust bellows throughout our halls and we row this rod out of the receiving area and onto our tarmac where its difficult not to smile by this car with almost toy-like dimensions. It does feel like a ride at Disneyland, only its unfettered and theres no track in the center keeping you from exploring the world! Now, we have no brake lights and the brake pedal is very soft, and if you end up careening down the street, the horn wont help as its not working either. All other functions including lights and gauges work as they should. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase. Hey, Ford fans take note, a Ford Street Rod that not only isnt packing a 350, but does have a Ford powerplant! This is a cool little ride thats got all the right ingredients for some fun weekends ahead, cruising Main Street or hanging with your Rodder friends and just talking cars.
