Very nice 1922 Ford Model T Brass Speedster for sale. Built by its current 35-year owner, a Model T enthusiast in the 1980's. This pretty old speedster was set up as a brassie though it is built 1922 frame with the early cross-members so it could be set up as a 1913. Everything was rebuilt at that time and it has been loved and cared for regularly since. This is a wonderful driving Brassie with all of the best enhancements!
The engine runs strong and set up nicely with aluminum dome pistons and dippers on the rods to keep the engine well lubricated. It comes equipped with a Tillerson carburetor, Model B manifold, and a 12-volt distributor, carbine generator, and electric starter. Gearing is improved with its Ruckstell rear end and solid brass Ruckstell shifter and braking dramatically better with Rocky Mountain brakes with new linings. It rides smoothly on 30" painted wood spokes with steel rims with handpainted pinstriping.
This special T is very comfortable with its classic diamond-patterned seats and well accessorized including a very rare, early monocle with Ford logo, locking steering wheel, Ford John Mansville speedometer, brass floorboard trim and a nifty solar light conversion to the spotlight. It has a nice set of brass cowl lamps, brass Boyce Motometer winged radiator cap with temperature gauge, brass step plates, a nice and loud triple-twist horn, gasoline pressurizer (not needed, for looks only) and spare water and fuel tanks on the passenger side running-board. You'll find plenty of room for picnics and parade supplies in the hand made wooden trunk.
This is a wonderful, old Speedster that has been thoughtfully built, well-loved and, cared for by the same owners for 35 years. It has a clear, transferable California title. Contact Donn with questions, shipping, and financing options. 707-332-8331.
