1913 Ford Model T Runabout

For consignment, a 1913 Ford Model T Runabout with a handful of miles since the engine rebuild.  This is an AACA Senior Grand National award winner, for “best exemplifying the restoration, preservation and enjoyment of antique motor vehicles in keeping with the purpose of the Antique Automobile Club of America”.  This car is trailered to shows and has not been on roads.  If your collection would benefit from an early American two seater, this is a worthy contender. 

Exterior

Its Midnight Blue body has been called “all but black blue” and is very dark, but still contrasted by the black fenders, base, and running boards which are indeed glossy black.  The dark blue is a particularly stunning match for the brass trim which includes the radiator shell, headlamp rims, horn covers, and window trim.  The black canvas top is in excellent condition and also is accented by brass grommets.  In back, a handy trunk is built into the body while a singular brass trimmed red light rests just behind it and on one of those running boards is an acetylene gas generator tank.  A two part windscreen can pivot and rises over two cowl lamps and a wooden “firewall” while 21-inch wooden spoke wheels are blue to match with brass valve stems and hubs, and tires that retain the color of natural rubber, off white.  Minor imperfections include some chips on a front fender and some rough paint on the door.

Interior

Smooth black leather covers the inner doors plainly while the material takes on diamond tufting on the bench which is generously padded with a top rim that wraps around to form armrests.  The typical black steering wheel has four concaving spokes and brass levers leading to the wood panel housing a Stewart speedometer and boxed spark coil, all in great shape.  On the floor, each steel pedal is embossed with a letter and along with the handbrake, rise from the floor covered in a white mat.  The horn bulb is mounted to the left of the driver perched at the ready to warn pedestrians who may share the road.  

Drivetrain

Behind the engine cover is the rebuilt 177ci L-head inline 4 cylinder, rated at 20 horsepower and fueled by a state of the art contraption for 1913, the 1-barrel carburetor.  Its transmission is the 2-speed planetary type which sends power to the rear axle and 3.63 gears.  Mechanical drum brakes on the rear wheels were the standard for early cars and are found here.  

Undercarriage

The underside maintains the museum quality presentation and is clean and glossy.  Transverse leaf springs are used front and rear and a single exhaust meets a stock style muffler before ending via a straight pipe towards the rear.  

Drive-Ability

Our crack staff includes antique aficionados who know their way around a hand crank and provide all  the knowledge needed to take this ol’ girl for a ride and just the idea that a 112 year old car moves under its own power is pretty astounding.  That all available functions work as intended is icing on the cake!  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. 

In a world where technology becomes outdated and obsolete rather quickly, (think about your 2015 car versus your 2025!), to have the most basic of cars, the Model T in working order and better than new presentation is a rare treat.  If you’re the type who has a working Victrola in the living room and cast iron cookware in the kitchen, then you probably understand the historical and nostalgic significance this car represents.  Every room is a throwback, it’s time to include the garage!
