Up for your attention is a sharp 1927 Ford Model T Runabout. This car has been nicely maintained with only a few modifications for comfort and safety; the roof is fully removable so you can take it off and drive on beautiful days without it. When closed it rests on the rear deck lid. The body is very solid and painted a green, it does have the normal wear and nicks from driving and age. The fenders, running boards are solid and strong. The interior is fully removable for cleaning and both cushions were re-done by an upholsterer, it isn't stock upholstery so keep that in mind. Nice clean running motor, car doesn't drip much if any oil or gas , starter button was moved to the dash for convenience. Has a newer NH carburetor which replaced the unreliable Vaporizer, newer wiring and re-built coils & coilbox. I can't get the ammeter to register, it is a newer gauge. The brakes were modified with a kit to connect them to the brake pedal with an Equalizer so this car stops by the pedal and not the transmission, but you can get both if you step hard enough and I am not 100% sure how tight to adjust them. Bands feel like Kevlar (I was told and suspect) and they are adjusted a bit loose, so maybe some band adjustment will be needed to your taste. Engine is a nice percolating Model T and I have uploaded two videos for you to hear and see the car. All lights work and rear chrome bright brake light gets good attention. Newer door panels, restored steering wheel, original Model T key-fob and overall a nice solid, safer car. Wire wheels are strong and the tires and tubes are good. Radiator keeps the car cool and the original horn sounds great! Runs strong on battery and Magneto and the rear end was rebuilt by previous owner so both back wheels feel tight. Winner to pay $200 down payment through PayPal and balance in cash or bank wire within a week or so. I can help load car, please ask any questions. Illinois title in my name is clear and engine number matches the VIN, so no legal issues. This is a nice old Flivver which isn't a show car but shows itself very well! NO international bidders.
