I am not selling this... nor do I have anything to do with the world of art. Nonetheless, the Columbus Museum of Art is selling a 1915 Touring. I know nothing about it, but I thought that someone might be interested.
It is being sold on a web site "Everything But The House".
It is at https://www.ebth.com/items/12486379-191 ... ouring-car
It seems like a weird place to sell a Model T, but I guess if you think a T is art, then it fits.
Regards,
Mike

Too bad about the top. Otherwise there's not a lot I would change. I expect it will go for considerably more than the current bid.

Re: Museum of Art Model T For Sale
I think the only problem with the top is they ruined one of the pads because they are clueless. It should be easy to fix as the top material itself doesn't look torn or damaged.
They obviously don't know how to put it up, i.e. moving the second bow to the bracket on the front armrest and moving the first bow to the higher eyelet on the second bow.

Looking at the pictures again, I believe that's right. It's a new top. If I remember correctly, the roll-up is not an original 1915 feature.
One of the plusses is that the car appears to have a real Ford radiator.
This would be a great car for somebody who is not able to crank start.
