Looking for a 1914 touring in good running condition although I would consider others. I'm located in Michigan. Not interested if it's painted red. Appreciate any help locating one.

There's a 1915 down this page.

Only thing I seem to have received by email is a scam to buy a car with PayPal or a quick phone call.

If you don’t mind sending me your cell number, I will give you a call tonight.

I did, it's a ways off, and I planned a trip to go out to see it last weekend because I had a rare 3 day weekend. I was waiting for more photos and was sent 3 of a model t from 2010 via picture of a computer screen and one of them was the wrong car. He then told me he can't get to the car until after tennis season although I have no idea when that is.

Alexa search. Tennis Season. "Starts the first of the year and finishes sometime the beginning of November"

Looks like a "hard pass" to me.

Is it legal to sell older cars in Tennis Season?

Only if you wear white and not after Labor Day.

We have a deceased club member that has a 1914 southern wide track touring that is restored and a great driver. His wife is wanting to sell if you are still looking. Let me know and I'll get photos

Didn't see this right away, sent email also. Interested in more info on this for sure, thank you.

Update, still searching for the right car. It's tough finding a 1914. Hoping to hear back from Don.

1914 for sale on the horseless carriage

Here is the example available now on the HCCA website;https://hcca.org/wp-content/uploads/202 ... caled.jpeg

That is a fantastic '14, despite that it appears to have a water pump!
Bit "up there" at $25K but I bet he'll negotiate. I do hope tho this is an indication that the earlier cars are "holding up" their values!
Especially since HCCA has an '11 Touring for only $39K!

I know, it's just so original I don't think I can be the one to start changing it. I have talked to him on the phone and even lost sleep over this car. I want it so bad. But I feel it's so rare at this point and can only be original once I don't think it's the car for me.

Thanks for the lead. I have texted with him. Looks like a fantastic car, it's just so far from Michigan I'm not sure I could ever get there.

I hope you can. Garsh it can't be THAT far can it? Unless maybe ur way up in the UP? Do you have a trailer? I've traveled overnight to fetch most of my T's LOL...I'm not trying to impress, preach, or otherwise, just hope you can figure it out. I think you'd be a great owner for it.

Jeremy

your opinion of BobP's car is a very sound and mature view. That car is indeed best kept as an original car akin to the "Rip VanWinkle" car, rather than restored for touring or beaten to death as-is for touring and enjoying.

I wish Bob all the luck in the world selling it and hope for history's sake it goes to the right owner.

And, I wish YOU luck in finding the perfect car for your needs

As a business owner it is hard to get away. I do have a trailer but it's a 25' deck over with a 5' beaver tail. If I wind up with a car at some point I will likely sell it and get an enclosed trailer. That is a very long ways to tow a model t on and open trailer. I have found a place to rent one just south of me an hour.

Wife and I stopped at Bob's on the way to my wife's cousins daughters wedding several years ago. Bob's a great guy and showed us around his impressive collection. Many great cars, can't honestly remember the 14 much other than we did see it. It was a short side stop of a trip where T's weren't high on the priority list.

There are many options, you could have it shipped to you. I sold a vintage tent trailer to a guy in California. The buyer had a guy pick it up with an enclosed semi trailer/car hauler. There were 4 or 5 other vehicles in the load going west. It was like an open car hauler they use for new cars but it was fully enclosed. I'm sure it was expensive but it arrived safely. Sadly the guy had it about a year until it was lost in one of the big fires (believe it was the Park fire) along with his son's house where it was stored. Fortunately none of his family was hurt.

If you wait until the ferry resumes operation across lake Michigan it would cut off about 400 miles of a round trip. Not much faster, but it beats going through Chicago at rush hour.

Best of luck with whatever you decide.
