26-27 Bumpers

I am going to part with this pair of bumpers for a 26-27. They came off my 27 Fordor. I can break them down for shipping. What you see in the photos is what you'll get. I'm asking $250.00 for all, plus actual postage. Eric 2 six 9, for too oh, 3 ate five 2 20230510_193615.jpg 20230510_193615.jpg 202...

Re: Wanted to Buy, 1917 Coupelet or 1918 Coupe ONLY!!!

I am curious if you landed the car Walt. I would be surprised if you got any closer to your requirements than this. A weekend with some sandpaper, primer and some black paint and you have exactly what you have been asking for.

Have any of you done business with either Eric Romero or Chris Kyle on FB. Before sending money I'm curious if they are legit. Thanks.

Re: 1915 Centerdoor Model T Ford Car

I would say the asking price is...um, optimistic. And 10-15 left? Apparently they are all in Michigan as I know of nearly that many right here. Also, just thinking out loud. I do agree with the others that it looks like a nice car.

Re: If you got a second T what would it be any why

My FIRST Model T is a '26 Fordor which I consider to be a lifetime car. My other permanent keeper is my '13 Touring. If I were to add just one more I would buy or assemble an '11 open Runabout, the kind with the Torpedo style fenders, though I have always wanted a '14 Touring and find the 17-22 tour...

26 Fordor cowl vent

I am looking for the cowl vent that would open the vent door on a '26-7 Fordor. Here is the only photo I have of what I am after. To be 100% truthful, I'm not certain what I need. Does it interchange with the same mechanism as would be on 24-25 closed cars like Fordors, Coupes and Tudors? Or...is it...

17-18 Coupelet mystery

Mark Eyre and I are a little perplexed. Last week he bought what appears to be a 17-18 Coupelet but some details are mysterious. Have the doors been changed? Is it a transitional car? The wood is highly intact and it appears largely original. Obviously some pictures are worth a thousand words so we'...
