Description

"From 1909 to 1927, the Ford Motor Company built more than 15 million Model T cars. Without a doubt, Henry Ford transformed the economic and social fabric of the 20th century. The most popular body styles were two and five-seater open touring cars; however, a very wide variety of bodies were available over the years including closed cars, vans and one tonne truck versions. Special bodies and many other parts were available from accessory suppliers so it was possible to convert your Model T car to anything from a 25 seater Charabanc or taxi to a racing car or tractor. Driving a Model T is easy; if you've never driven a conventional car. The accelerator is controlled by hand using a lever under the steering wheel. Forward gears are selected using the left of the three pedals, reverse by using the centre pedal and braking is achieved using the right pedal. Normal cruising speed is 35-40mph and fuel consumption is 20-25mpg.
This Model T presents beautifully with gleaming black coachwork. The wood to the rear is also in great condition as are the artillery wheels. Forming part of a private collection, we are advised this Ford runs and drives well. Ford Model T’s can be found in all kinds of condition, however occasionally a little gem is found and this is one of those. Clearly whoever restored this pick-up knew what they were doing, this is a stand-out 1918 Model T that can be used for promotional work, exhibited at shows or displayed as office art.
