I’ve been a member of the Model T Ford club of America since1993 and the local club the Lone Star T’s in Dallas. I have restored five modelT’s over this period of time and currently own and drive a 1921 Center door anda 1915 Model T touring.  A friend of minehas asked me to help him sell this car. It has been sitting in his mother’sgarage for a while and he wanted help in starting it so he could sell it.

With some fresh gasoline and a new charge on the battery Iwas able to easily crank the engine to get it started on the 4th crank. Of allthe Model T’s  I have worked on over theyears, I can tell you that this car has the smoothest engine I have ever heard.  You can tell by listening to it that thevalve timing is perfect, and there are no typical model

T noises that you find in most other engines.  The transmission is as quiet as a mouse aswell; no triple gear noise.  I don’t knowwho rebuilt the engine and transmission, but he did an excellent job.  The brass Holly carb has recently beenoverhauled as well.

The first thing one notices is the impeccable workmanship ofthe rebuild; especially the trim and attention to detail overall.  The car is in nearly perfect shape, however,there is a small tear in the upholstery of the driver’s seat and one of thebrass hood latches is missing.  The brasshood latch is currently on back order from Snyder’s.  

The radiator is in good condition and there is very littlewear on the gray Firestone balloon tires. The car is also equipped with an accessory “double wishbone” typicallyused on speedsters. The car is nearly museum quality.

Additionally, it has a 3:1 rear end gear ratio.  The engine was manufactured in March of 1917according to the engine number.  Themagnets have been removed and replaced with oil slingers.  A Ford oil can is mounted on thefirewall.  The coils are in perfectcondition and all measure 1.3 amps.  Thecar has been driven approximately 100 + miles.

The bodywork has been refinished in blue base and clearcoats with polished hood panels. A Ford brass radiator at the front of the carfeatures a Boyce Motometer. The floor is constructed with using wood with brasstrim, and an electric STOP light is affixed at the rear. The fuel tank isexcellent with the #58 decals on the sides and the battery box his mounted aftof the driver resembling a tool box.  Ithas a 6 volt battery in excellent shape.
