Would you sell just the 1916 Engine for $800?

GarJen127

I won some 1990’s copies of “The vintage Ford” and a couple radiators, and a luggage rack.

GarJen127

The Auction Just ended, I think I got some pretty good deals.

I think its cool. Like to see a side photo.

Glad it does not look like this which I photographed in 2019.

here is a side photo, it's a 40 footer but it's getting better. yes it has a hood but i had it off while tinkering with the wiring

I think the Car looks beautiful.

GarJen127

I realized a photo would help, something like this.

Is anyone here picking up/transporting lots from the Richard Eagle estate who might be able to help me transport my lots to Northern Utah? I'll be near Salt lake city from the 21st to the 26th.

GarJen127

I guess whoever's it is isn't a member of the forum. Even so, it is very pretty.

GarJen127

I would like to buy a complete, running late brass era engine, 1914-1916 with working transmission

Just like this

GarJen127

Edited to say looking for Brass Chassis, Bump to top.

Registering, and lots of looking at lots (Pun intended), I am excited to participate in the Rich Eagle Auction, and hopefully win a Complete car, or Chassis.

GarJen127

I am quite interested in this 1922 Ford model t Coupe from the Rich Eagle estate.

Did you at least contact the seller of yet another $4K project car that at least RUNS, that's in Colorado? That's not too awfully far from you I would think for shipping, and I bet he'll negotiate. I will hold comment on the other car out of respect. I did contact him but he never responded. Awww.....

Hi, Is anyone here bringing a T to the San Clemente Classic cars show tomorrow?

I just found some old pics that I took in November 2023 while visiting Monterey CA. Does anyone know who's speedster this is?

GarJen127

A lot depends on what you are going to do with your T. Some like their cars to look like a "barn find" That is a little rust and oxidation in the finish, but otherwise straight. If an open car the top should be good enough that it doesn't flap around in the breeze. Mechanically it should be well ru...

Ask yourself how much do you have in your current driver? If you had something cheaper or waited longer for your car upgrade how would the effect your T budget?

I don’t quite understand what your saying, but I don’t currently own a model t.

GarJen127

+1 on what Mack said. Don't let finances detract you from your dream. It took me 30 years to restore my TT. It's called priorities. Once I had kids, there was NO time or money for the T. Frustrating? Yes. Demotivating? Yes. I got to the point of hating seeing it in the garage. It represented failur...

GarJen127

Thank you all very much for your kind words and I have been researching and gathering information, I even look all over Facebook marketplace, Hemmings, classic cars.comm, and Craigslist. I know the basics of how to care for, and drive a model t. The only problem is my lack of a Model T, and a lack o...

GarJen127

Hi, I'm kind of new here, and I know this is probably a long shot, but is there a group, or agency, or company, that help younger people, and teenagers buy classic cars? I've appealed to all of my close relatives, and no one has ever owned, or wants to own a Model T, but it has been my biggest life ...

GarJen127

I've seen that post and have reached out to him, but he's not willing to sell the chassis seperately.

A pic of the engine and possibly some of the seats, and the turtle deck, and radiator. Thanks!

Does anyone know of any upcoming Model T sweepstakes/raffles?

I magnified the photo on my computer, it still looks like 2014 to me IDK if it's a manufacturing error or my computer, or just the font they used back in the day.

GarJen127

If it’s a 1914 car, then why is the engine casting date 2014?

GarJen127

Do all touring have adjustable seat? I’ve seen some camping photos of touring being used as beds.

GarJen127

I wish I was closer to Wisconsin, I would totally buy this

Garret, I presume you mean side curtains, sometimes called storm curtains. Side covers is a term usually used to describe the covers on the valve chambers on the side of the engine block.
Hope this helps.
Allan from down under.

Yes, I do mean side curtains

Thank you all so much for the advice. I'm planning on going to the next meeting at my local club. I have also decided to look for a Tudor sedan, because of the limited amount of wood in their body.

GarJen127

If I had the money right now, I would definitely buy the 1916 touring mentioned above, I LOVE the look of a nice black and brass t and I'm willing to buy an open car in order to get one. I especially love the straight wood firewall with no metal on 1914 cars.

GarJen127

My dad sold his 23 a few months ago because we had a family member who had a health emergency and couldn't pay the medical expenses.
he says if I want a T I have to buy it myself.

GarJen127

What do you guys think of this? It's $3,000 With engine. It's just needs a roof, new tires and an interior restoration. I've asked him if I could give him a deposit of $500 to hold it for me.

GarJen127

I recently visited the website IMCDB or "The Internation Movie Car Database" and there are quite a few T's on their list. Does anyone on this forum own a T that has been in a movie? Just Curious.

GarJen127

I've decided to let you all know exactly what kinds of T's I would like to buy the most. I Like 1919-1922 doctor's coupes, and 1923-1927 enclosed cars, coupes fordors, tudors, centerdoors, just no TT's I hope this helps people

is the cream/off white paint original to the car? or was the car repainted at some point?

I want to try and buy a car that look and runs well, I don't really want to go to the trouble of painting one, or finding someone to do it for me.

I also forgot to mention that I am now just looking for a closed T Coupe, Fordo, or sedan, no particular year just whatever you've got.

GarJen127

Is there anyone in Southern California who paints T's? Several of the T's I am interested in buying are in need of a paint job.

After some deliberation, I have decided that I love the late model t Fordors, and want to buy one of them. I'll change the advert to match my decision.

Hi, I'm pretty new to this hobby, and I'm looking to buy my first T. My dad had a 23 touring that we worked on together, but I want to get a T of my own. I'm looking for a T with a Chrome radiator so 1925-1927. I don't have much of a budget however about $5000-7500 so it'll have to be a project car....

GarJen127

I would love to buy a complete car, but there super expensive here in California. Even a 23 touring will end up costing 7-10 thousand dollars! so I'd prefer to buy a chassis, or a project car and do some work on it instead of spending too much for one here in CA.

GarJen127

With all of your wonderful feedback and information in mind, I think I'll try to build a roadster instead of a coupelet.

GarJen127

are there any plans or measurements of a coupelet frame? Does anyone on the forum have any experience with building T frames and bodies?

GarJen127

could I use an old coupe body for a base and then attach the fabric to the outside thus making a Faux coupelet? Or does anyone make coupelet body kits?

GarJen127

When you don’t have the basic parts for a body of a certain type you want it’s going to an extended period of time finding them. The engine and chassis are the easier parts to find and the picture shown is a good start. Open cars usually don’t take as long to build but the closed cars are a whole d...
