Model T Ford Huckster 1923 - high compression head, alloy pistons, 12v nice for sale

Here is my Model T Ford Huckster.This is a red-oak Huckster body - roomy compared to some models - with a varnish finish to the wood. It was built with reliable motoring in mind and has a few convenience modifications that cost thousands to build into this car.The engine is a pro-built 1923 original Model T with alloy pistons and "high-compression" Z-head. It has a 12v Texas T distributor and Texas T alternator set-up. With a distributor set-up the magneto becomes redundant and this was lightened by removing the magnets and adding oil dippers. It uses an Ansco manifold. The transmission is 1927, chosen for the larger drive bands introduced that year and kevlar bands have been used, together with Turbo 400 clutch. It has a Ruckstell two speed axle, which was rebuilt two years ago with new axles and bearings. The fitment of a disc-brake conversion has transformed the braking on the car, again a reasonably common and quite expensive aftermarket modernisation for those who like to drive their classics in modern traffic and not obtrusive. The reverse pedal extender is helpful if you have big feet, like me. It is a non-invasive adaption, which can easily be taken off. It also has LED lights including turn signals and brake lights. Chrome Moto-meter engine temperature gauge. Fuel tank in good condition. It has a "fat-man" steering wheel, which folds to give a bit of clearance. The seating is ample for the larger and taller driver - I'm 6'2" tall and 17 stone, there is plenty of room.I have an "ahooga" horn for the car, which isn't currently fitted, it is in nice condition and can be fitted as is.The door set-up makes hot weather driving with the doors open nice and cool. In the Winter, doors closed, nice and warm. The rear side-windows open and close. The rear wall of the cab folds down. The front screen opens out. So, all weather is a reality for this car. The pick-up bed is also red-oak, but as I have been using for carting shopping and that sort of stuff around, there is a heavy duty matt protecting it, with a cover for the bed too.All-in-all, a nice presentable and regularly maintained car, easy to keep in good running order, and good for that bit of extra safety. It's taxed and insured, so I can take you out for a little run. You can drive it home with confidence it will get you there.Can be viewed in Ringwood, Hants.
