Vehicle Detail

{eBay forced me to put title type in listing, car comes will bill of sale it doesn't have a title}Up for sale is my model t wire wheel race car. It is a 1909 to 1921 model. It was originally raced in Tulsa in the 30s with its original drive train. In the mid 1950s a Nash Flathead straight six and 3 speed transmission were added. This is the most original racer i have seen from this era, it still has motorcycle tires on the front which was an early race car practice. The car has spent the last 5 years in the Auburn, Cord, Dusenburg museum as part of the owners personal vintage race car collection. I was lucky enough to buy it earlier this summer and have had a lot of fun driving and working on it. Just before i bought it the Nash engine was disassembled and new rings and seals were added, it has a brand new battery, i recently pulled the entire rear differential out and rebuilt it with brass thrust washers and new bearings, it has a new pinion bearing and gear. All of the fluids were just changed, i even tracked down the Henry ford recommended 600 weight oil for the differential.I also replaced the brake shoes.The car starts, runs and drives fantastic for a 100 yr old car. It is self starting with a reverse gear. You wont find an early car this authentic and original anywhere else, Ive looked. You are th main attraction at any car show and will be eligible for any vintage hill climb our tour. It is on a full size t frame and is much larger than the pictures appear, I'm 6'2 and over 300lbs and I'm able to drive it just fine. the seat is in 3 pieces, as i mentioned I'm a large specimen and had to dissemble it to fit. Any interior shop could fix it. Add some lights, get a vin, and make it street legal. Please feel free to contact me with questions or make an offer. Thanks for you time, Dan I added 2 pictures with my 6 year old son to give some prospective to the size of the car, it is not a midget sprint.
