The Appeal

It's impossible to overstate the significance of Henry Ford's Model T in the history of the motor car. Built inexpensively on a production line, this was one of the first cars ordinary people could aspire to own.

This 1926 example is a beautifully restored two-door sedan, previously owned by the President of Associacion Club de Vehículos Antigua De Almería.

The vendor remarks:

"This car is almost 100 years old but looks and drives as if it had just left the factory."

The Ford boasts a fully restored engine and gearbox, a new grey velour interior, and modern upgrades like a 12-volt conversion and electric start. The gearbox belts have been upgraded and replaced and a fresh battery and tyres have been fitted in readiness for sale. We're assured that it "starts every time and runs perfectly".
If you're looking for a show car quality Model T that's ready to enjoy, this one certainly fits the bill.
