1927 Model T Ford Four Door, Straight Steel Body, Many New Parts. Hard Work Done on 2040-cars

The Ford Motor model T commonly known as the Tin Lizzie, is an automobile that was produced by Henry Ford's Ford Motor Company from October 1, 1908 to May 27, 1927.  It is generally regarded as the first affordable automobile, the car that opened travel to the common middle-class American; some of this was because of Ford's efficient fabrication, including assembly line production instead of individual hand crafting.  The Ford Model T was named the world's most influential car of the 20th century in an international poll.

The Model T was the first automobile mass-produced on moving assembly lines with completely interchangeable parts, marketed to the middle class.

Henry Ford said of the vehicle:   "I will build a car for the great multitude. It will be large enough for the family, but small enough for the individual to run and care for. It will be constructed of the best materials, by the best men to be hired, after the simplest designs that modern engineering can devise. But it will be so low in price that no man making a good salary will be unable to own one – and enjoy with his family the blessing of hours of pleasure in God's great open spaces.

Get yourself a great piece of American history.  Imagine this car could have been the last car Henry Ford watched come off the line on May 27, of 1927.  This car needs a new home and all the hard work has been done.  The motor has been gone through and there is one new piston and new gaskets.  Transmission has new forward and reverse bands.  The carburetor is rebuilt and works well.  This car wiring has completely been replaced from key switch to all electrical parts, as well as the coil boxes rebuilt.  The car has electric start on a 6 volt system, with a new battery, but also runs well off the magneto.  This four door car is all steel and is very straight with very little rust.  All the window and door mechanics work but does need some glass work.  There are a few things that need to be done.  It will need new tires.  The interior needs finishing and some glass replaced.  There is a small box of parts that go along with this car that has a horn and all the door parts.  Good luck bidding.  Any questions call 616.836.3424.   Also check out Video on Youtube youtube.com/watch?v=6o7ITP4O36Q&feature=c4-overview&list=UUzE4-rLjwUh-xiUYDY7oc0w
