Seller’s Description: Owned since 1994 or 5, & Came from California. It had not been used in years. Best I may determine its an early eighths restoration. Tires when received still had mold marks on the treads. They were installed when the car was restored. There was 11/32 remaining when it was delivered to me. The original spare is still on it. Has been used a few times. In short, mechanically it is 98%. The body indicates 34 years of use. It is not a show vehicle. I bought it as I love to drive a T. It has been around town a lot and on many tours. It may be picked up and driven anywhere. It is located currently in Florida.
This first list includes nonstandard items. Kaki gypsy curtains, spare tire cover, and boot, as well as custom tonneau cover. The top and irons are solid, but what’s left of the padding I believe was new at the time of restoration and has deteriorated. The top appears to have been new when restored.
This list is what I have done or had done to it. All parts were with new or in like-new condition. All tolerances meet specs. Second I will list what could be done to make it perfect.
Trailer hitch, Dual tail lights, one with Ford script. Wire wheels, toolbox with key, Original wood wheel, excellent period upholstery, dual electrified cowl lights, SS older rosettes, dual mirrors, older step plates, T-horn, Ford oil can, halogen lights, motor meter, adjustable end caps on steering assembly, new or perfect wheel bearings and races. Front end stabilizer, newer plugs, running board luggage rack, leather hood protectors, side curtains in like-new condition.
The running gear and engine as follows. Complete rebuild on an after production block. New aluminum pistons. New SS valves & adjusters. New rods, perfect camshaft. 67 VW distributor, new points, condenser, cap, and wires. Newer style fan adjustment, new style pulleys. Crank turned rods >20. Mains standard. New fan belt & newer hoses. The radiator cleaned and pressure tested. Repo motor meter. Converted to 12V, including rebuilt starter and new alternator. The carburetor was professionally rebuilt. Ford script intake manifold, water outlet, & oil fill cap. The front end has all been rebuilt, kingpins, the works. The transmission was completely rebuilt with seals, gears, good drums turned, & Kevlar bands. The block and crank were magma fluxed. New Babbitt and line bored.
The following is serviceable but could be updated. Top, floor mat, trunk hinges replaced as well as lock & key. Parts will be provided. The body and paint look good from 25’ but yo have a perfect car, below the doors will soon need work as well as the fenders. If I have missed anything it has been unintentional. I’ve had a great 16 years. I’m 82 & it’s time someone else have this car and enjoy it as much as I have.
