FS 1914 Model T Touring
I am posting this for a friend; he is a forum member but not as familiar with this type of thing. Besides, I sold this car to him seven years ago and he asked if I wouldn’t mind posting it. I put a lot of time and work into this T and know it’s a gem! In fact, I wish I had the $ and space to buy it back because I know what a nice car it is. As I said, I put a lot into the old girl but I’ll try to condense it. Engine number 495181, built 3-9-14. This car came out of a Milwaukee auto parts store where it sat on display for thirty + years. All original interior in very nice condition: two seat cushions were replaced with correct Classtique upholstery. New top with roll up rear curtain plus top boot, new wood bows as well. All new Stutzman wheels with new tires with very little wear. New cherry dash with correct stain. Engine rebuilt by Joe Bell with aluminum pistons and new cam and crankshaft, new valves and rebuilt magneto. Outside oil line, new Kevlar band linings and oil screen. Front and rear axles rebuilt with an extra wishbone added as well as steering stabilizer. Corcoran lamps and working carbide generator: headlamps rebuilt for use with carbide gas. 1916 Stewart speedometer rebuilt by Russ Furstnow. All original fenders, running boards and splash aprons were blasted and painted: body was painted sometime in the past but still looks great. Re-cored original brass radiator, rebuilt original brass Holley G carburetor, all original floorboards and front floor mat and accessary electric tail lamp. Correct car cover as well. Seller lives in Massachusetts and drove the car very little in the seven years he’s owned it, but changed oil regularly and car was kept in a climax controlled environment. Asking $22,500. If you’re interested send me an email and I’ll pass on his contact information.

Nice looking car. No. I think "Climax Controlled" was accurate.
