Ford1925 model T, oadster.This is a nice winter PROJECT CAR.There is a lot here to work with.I bought this car in 1971 from, think, ts second owner.It is all there and mostly original, ut not running. Last ran early 80s. Running gear all there. Needs a new radiator core and other tinkering to make it go again. Storage has been indoors and dry. Some amateur resto work about 50 yrs ago incl white vinyl top and red upholstery on seats, oor and interior side panels. Vinyl seats and top are in good, liable condition.Engine will hand crank over and has compression. 6V electrics intact incl, iring, witch, agneto, enerator, tarter, our buzzer coils, eadlight and tail light (broken lens there), O BATTERY
Side lights are kerosene .The wheels are wooden spoke "artillery" type. They are well used, ut still useable.
There are 5 tires and tubes mounted on the 5 demountable rims with a solid iron rear bracket for the rim mounted spare. Tires hold air well enough to roll the car around in the shop or onto a trailer. I would notdriveon them. Body paint is part original part other, ut needs redoing. Some rust where paint has failed. Floor wood is sound including the battery hatch. A 1/4" thick rubber floor mat in the trunk is in good shape though discolored.Passenger FLOOR MAT, lack rubber Ford original worn and weathered.Top bows and saddles are all there and work. The door and latch work.Sheet metal is straight other than the right rear fender has been bent forward a little and the vertical edge flange has buckled a little at two points around the radius. The fender to frame support iron for same fender is also bent forward a bit. There is a 3"tear in the metal where the same fender joins the splash guard and running board.
