Engine is hard to start and smokes, compression was about 50-60 pounds, otherwise drove well. Very little rust on body or frame except for body rear panel and bottom of driver's door. Doors lift off and a photo is included showing door skin edges but rear doors skins will need lots of straightening. An electric fuel pump is used and a new 6vt one is included in box. Car has a Oklahoma title using frame serial number.

Top bows that came with it may be 23 Ford T, Hood appears to be different from online photos unknown if the hood and latches are from an earlier year or those used by this coach builder.

A untitled disassembled 1924 Touring parts car is included no wood and only about 70 percent of sheet metal. It is rusty with a chassis, radiator, hood, cowl, 3 doors skins and most of the rear section.
