Description
I'm putting a FORD Model T up for sale; after research, it was manufactured in October 1917 (vintage 1918), equipped with its original engine no. 2313005.
Moteur 4-cylinder 2896 cm3
box 2 vitesses
This car was mechanically completely restored in the early 1980s by my father (a garage mechanic at the time).
After getting it running again and a few road tests, a minor off-road excursion required some repairs to the front end.
Lacking time, the car has since been stored in a dry garage for many years.
In the early 2020s, after my father's passing, I began to have it resumed and finalised the restoration with the help of a professional. The work progressed well (chassis, running gear in excellent condition).
Unfortunately, the technician had to stop his activity for health reasons, and the project has remained as-is for about three years.
Remaining work to be done
- Fitting and fabrication of the hood (the bows are present)
- Complete upholstery (front and rear seats to be fitted)
- Consider paint touch-ups before final reassembly of bodywork components.
The registration document is in my father's name and is in my possession.
It is a very solid and compliant base, ideal for an enthusiast looking to finalise a restoration already well advanced.
Rare opportunity to get back on the road an authentic 1918 Ford Model T, with its original engine and a known family history.
Vehicle viewable by appointment.
