This is a very nice, turn key car that shows very well. It was finished about 8 years ago so it does have a few road chips here and there. As expected, there is also a small amount of wear in the interior from driving it. The attention to detail and quality of the build make this car really stand out. The original build cost of the car was nearly $30k. The reserve is considerably less. It is not a thrown together "T-Bucket"!
The roadster is titled as a 1927 FORD Model T. The car belongs to my father, and he is thinning his collection. I am happy to answer any questions you may have about the car. Please call Dan at 314-393-6814.
One question that I am expecting is "Will I fit in the car?" I am 5'10" and 225 lbs. I fit in it fine. If you are 6'5", 300 lbs., this probably is not the car for you... but you already know that! The seats are on adjustable tracks help accommodatedifferent heights.
Auction ends Thursday July 13th at 8PM
