THE ULTIMATE MODEL T TOURING

WITH A SHOW WORTHY. RELIABLE. FUEL INJECTED V/6!

Granted. it is not a 1932 Ford.   But then again. it is 1/2 the cost of a '32 if built to this level!

And by the way Guys. you should know that women LOVE this car!

 

One look at this beauty and you'll immediately recognize the attention to detail. and the care & craftsmanship that it took to restore this gorgeous resto-rod! Yes. '23 Ford 3 Door's are rare enough. but you may  have never seen one like this before.   a 200 HP fuel injected '93 Chevrolet VORTEC V-6 engine paired with a three-speed Chevrolet 350-T automatic transmission. this classic T is not just to look at. it's made to DRIVE!  She was restored by a father and son team in the early 2000's…. by the way. the son is a top restorer at a nationally recognized custom shop – Slim's Hot Rods.  Now. this labor of love can be yours.

The original metal over wood frame has been painstakingly replaced with an all steel frame. The body is 100% STEEL. nbsp;with a custom made hood. radiator shell. hood sides. wheel wells. trunk. and more. All the rear body seams have been filled. The body has been flawlessly widened by 2. 5” (in-distinquishable!). and the windshield was chopped 3”. The three doors open with modern push-button ease - literally!  She is painted with gorgeous brandy wine metallic BCCC (base-coat clear-coat) '99 Lexus paint.  The tan custom top is removable or you can use with the ‘Isinglass' side curtains for an enclosed trip. The interior is impeccably stitched in a complimentary 2-tone tan color. The chrome custom gauges. Lokar floor shifter. emergency brake. illuminated gear indicator. Ididit polished aluminum tilt steering column and much more complement this refined interior.

The mechanics are just as impressive! With 200HP VORTEC V-6 and Turbo 350 automatic. she is ready to please. The engine has Sanderson headers and ceramic coated dual exhaust. She has all new wiring and computer. and an Optima battery. She has Alden coil overs on the front (with a dropped axle) and rear. She is cooled by a Walker radiator with an electric cooling fan. Plus she has Pete & Jakes 4-bar front and rear suspension with a custom made torsion bar in the rear. She rides on Goodyear 255-15 tires rear and 195-15 front with wire Wheel Vintique wheels.   She uses front disc and rear drum brakes. with stainless steel brake lines to stop her. and her custom stainless steel gas tank was made by Rock Valley Custom.

There is so much more to see and tell. This is an impressive vehicle and is ready to be shown and enjoyed! You can drive the car anywhere. anytime. with confidence.  It can sit for months. and start up without touching anything but the key!  In fact. it has accumulated nearly 10. 00 miles since built. although the condition reflects more like 500 miles!  It is babied. inside and out!  Another nice feature is that the matching trunk is not permanently mounted. but rather mounted via a small trailer receiver hitch. so if you prefer to pull a trailer. you're ready!  This Model T is truly one of the best T's built. and is a consistent award winner!  (Please noted that much of the detail written above was provided by the builder. as I purchased the car finished in 2006 or 2007)

Why am I selling her?  Well. I have 18 cars. nbsp; and I have come to accept that it is time to thin the collection down to 10.   And Lizzy (as my kids call her) is on the list. hoping someone else will get her out and drive and show her more than I can.   In the 6 or 7 years that I've owned her. I've never taken this one out to any of the big shows. in fact. it's never been to a Good-Guys or NSRA show west of the Rockies.   And she deserves to be seen at shows like that. instead of local parades and donut gatherings.   If you want a car that hasn't been seen by everybody. it is still completely UNKNOWN on the West Coast.  

By the way. she has a clear. California title (as a 1923 Ford). in my name. and she is currently registered and insured.   If you are a sincere buyer. you can call me at 805- three nine one -0509 (cell). or email me directly at hotrodranch@live. com.   I am happy to answer questions about this car. or any of my other cars that will be going up for sale soon also.  I only request that you ask questions BEFORE you bid!  If you would like to come see the car. even better - as photos don't do this car justice!  I am located in Paso Robles. CA - which is located exactly between San Francisco and Los Angeles. on the CA Hwy 101.   Very easy access via drive or fly-in to nearby San Luis Obispo airport.   

DONATION:  I have noted in the auction that 5% of this sale will go to one of my favorite charities - Focus on the Family.   This organization provides so many tools for family growth and love. with appropriate Biblical principals.    If you have an alternative organization that you would like to donate to. call me to discuss how we can donate in your name instead!  It's just my way of giving back!
