Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Acetylene headlights, E&J kerosene sidelights, Neverout taillight, Rubes bulb horn, red spoke wheels, black tires. The last iteration in Henry Fords concept of a lightweight, reliable, inexpensive automobile before the introduction of the Model T. An older show quality restoration. Engine is covered in oil mist but chassis is clean and essentially unused. Still nearly show quality. Burr Joslin Estate. No Reserve.

Market commentary

This is nothing if not a huge value in a rare and significant model that occupies an important place in the history of the automobile. If there wasnt a (fairly successful) Model S, there wouldnt have been a Model T. Its condition is nearly show ready, needing only a little elbow grease and solvent cleaner to be displayed with pride.
