FS 1927 Touring - Indiana

I am selling my 1927 Model T Touring car. It is a numbers-matching car (engine number matches the frame number under the front passenger seat). It was built in February of 1927.

I know the complete history of this car. I’m the 4th owner and I have a copy of each title dating back to 1939 (dating back to the 2nd owner).

1st owner (1927 – 1939). St. Charles, MO.
2nd owner (1939 – 2009). Rivermines, MO
3rd owner (2009 – 2015). Wildwood, MO
4th owner (myself, 2015 – present). Arcadia, IN

Most of its life, it was in the St. Louis area. The 2nd owner owned the car for 70 years and restored it back in the 1980s. I brought the car from Missouri to Indiana in 2015. Since I’ve owned the car, I’ve been in several parades and drive it for occasional ice cream with the kids. The car is reliable and could easily be taken on tour.

The car is stored in my heated, attached, garage and I know the previous 2 owners stored it in their garages, also. It has a stock 6 volt system with starter. It runs well on magneto.

I rebuilt the coil box and put in a new wiring harness a couple of years ago. I have a set of side curtains (see photo) that have been stored under the seat and probably never used since purchased during the restoration in the 1980s.

I have a clear title. Asking $12,500. Located in Arcadia, IN

Nice looking car, Steve. Why are you parting with her?
