More of a generic old car than a T.... the tour bus model looks pretty good.

Are they legal for sale in the US?

These have been out there for years now. Glorified large golf carts basically. However, none of these have been FDOT approved, eg not street legal.
Most in the 6k range, but figure another 2-3k to import... for a
10k golf cart you can't use other than on your property.

But hey, ya gotta admit, if ya wanted a golf cart, who wouldn't want one that looked like this??

This single seater with what appears front spring and wheels more T like is interesting. Fair representation of an early Ford ;)

You can rent one of these on Galveston Island here in Texas and drive it all over the Island. They look sorta cool. I see them on road. I would rather drive my T.

Are they made of steel? Gas or electric? Probably not road legal in Texas.

Steel, electric....here's more detail:
They are not however certified by FDOT, so not street legal.

I especially love the "imported artificial leather, more comfortable and durable" seats. Sounds like it could have been a T sales pitch!

I'm scratching my brain as to what "organic glass" means...

But if ya wanted a cool/unique golf cart, gotta admit they're pretty stinkin cute...

Rich, antique artificial Corinthian Lather!
I wouldn't mind having one to play around with, but I'd guess I'd have more like 8K in it by the time it got here.... and that would buy a real T.

Funny comment about that. As golf carts go, 7-10k ain't a bad price for this T, considering most new carts are in the $20k range! But ya, for that money, I too would rather have a T.
Which leads to this story.
So here in beach/tourist town, most own golf carts, cuz you can pretty much go anywhere ya want in one.. And as it goes with golf carts, they band together and have their cute little golf cart parades around the neighborhood on various holidays.
So one year we decked out the A, piled in the grandkids, and drove to the meetpoint for the neighborhood parade. Once parked, the "leader" came up and told us it was for golf carts only! I said, "well, this IS my golf cart!". I ended up taking the caboose position, but, last time we joined in. Needless to say, I'm not a member of the snooty golf cart crowd club.
