Classic Car Marketing, Inc. Southern California’s premier marketing company is pleased to introduce this new listing offered for sale by one of our clients.
This 1907 Ford Model R is an all original barn find and has been in storage the last 40 years. Owned by the same family since new, this is an unrestored part of automotive history just waiting for a new owner to give it the care it needs to bring it back to life.
A Ford ad slogan, 'Watch the Ford's Go By' had an effect on car buyers and Ford's market share climbed to 35% in 1907. The Model R was introduced in 1907 as a refined version of the Model N. With full front fenders and attaching running boards, it was available in two colors, Brewster Green and Carmine Red. This year also featured the first use of a 'spare wheel' under the rear cover for on-the-road tire changes. Sales on the Model R far outpaced sales forecasts and Ford parts suppliers were hard pressed to keep up with production demands. The side lever controls the two-speed planetary transmission. Ford produced approximately 2,500 Model R cars so this is a rare one indeed. Offered at $26,500 OBO.
