1923 Ford Model T

History

On October 1. 1908. Henry Ford began delivering the first Model T's to an excited public. In its first year. over 10. 00 were sold. setting a new record. The formula was simple. For $825. a Model T customer could take home a car that was light. about 1. 00 pounds. relatively powerful. with a four-cylinder. 20 horsepower engine. and fairly easy to drive. with a two-speed. foot controlled “planetary” transmission. Less than 19 years later. on May 26. 1927. Ford watched the 15 millionth Model T roll off the assembly line in Highland Park. Michigan.

This remarkable 1923 Model T was completed at Ford's Highland Park. Michigan plant in March 1923. According to the previous owner. the car was delivered to a farmer in Southern California. The Model T stayed with the original owner's family for more than 80 years. when it was acquired by Charles Wyatt of Redlands. CA.

Mr. Wyatt kept the car for a several years before selling it to Jack Wear of Huntington Beach. CA in 2010.

I saw the Model T at a local car show and fell in love with it. I immediately recognized it as a onc e-in-a-lifetime opportunity to enjoy an original. unrestored Model T. so I asked Mr. Wear if we would consider selling it. To my delight. he said yes. and we struck a deal.

After taking possession. I delivered my new prize to noted Model T expert. Larry Blair at the Tin Shed. My directive was simple: Go through the car. and repair anything that needs attention – just don't do anything that would ruin the car's originality and patina. A month later. the Model T emerged from his shop with new coils. a rebuilt generator. a re-cored radiator. new brakes and dozen other details. As a result of Mr. Blair's efforts. my kids and I enjoy driving “Rusty” around Newport Beach – much to the delight of other drivers that wave and cheer as we go by.

Now. we are ready to embark on our next project. a 1962 Land Rover II. and “Rusty” needs a new home. If you would like to enjoy an original. unrestored 1923 Model T that has its original drivetrain. frame. body. jack and tools. and drives as good today as it did in 1923. this is the car for you!
