Equipment
Good paint and upholstery. Restoration has been carefully maintained but shows its age. Runs very well. One of the three cars for which orders with deposits were received on July 13, 1903, just as James Couzens checkbook was running dry, from Herbert L. McNary, a butter maker in Britt, Iowa. They were the first orders for Ford Motor Company automobiles and this is the only survivor of the three. It has only four owners from new. Emblematic of a turning point in the automobiles history. Important How about seminal
Market commentary
Ron Pratte has been buying first Fords for the past few years but theyve been contemporary first Ford models. WRONG John OQuinn This is, arguably, THE first Ford. its worth what had to be bid to get it today. It will be a late starter on the way to Brighton, but many people will hang around to see it off.
