When it comes to custom Model T Speedster, all steel is the way to go. Listed here on eBay and parked in Plymouth, California with a bid of $6,100 at the time of writing is this 1923 Model T Speedster. According to the owner, this is an authentic original Model T, not a kit car.
The owner says there is a 12V electric stater, a Model A crankshaft, a deep sump oil pan, an in block oil dipper, an external oil drip front main, late model pistons, an aluminum head, Stromberg 97 carburetor, and a dual point ignition strapped to this engine.
This custom has rack & pinion steering, a drop T front axle, a Ruxtell 2 speed rear end and internal dual rear brakes plus Rocky Mountain External brakes.
The mileage is 001, but the actual mileage is unknown as is the build date or the history of ownership.
The owner say that this car runs, drives, starts and stops like it is supposed to. There are 29 images in the ad for your review. You can also call Dan, the owner, with any other details you are interested in. Does you garage, shed, barn, carport or shop have room for this ’23?
Motor-on,
Robert
I’d love to see these make a come back. If dead oak leaves were money, I’d pick this up in a heartbeat.
This is a fantastic little car my hat is off to the builder, I would love to have it. My only change would be to add small axle mounted fenders and some small period looking brake and signal lights to make it street legal. Nice find.
