Description of 1925 Ford Model T Model T

I purchased this 1925 Model T Ford over 12 years ago from a good friend of mine. This car has been garage kept since before I Purchased it.When purchased it was a complete car that needed to be completely renovated. On a personal level this is a labor of love and it has been a very difficult decision to sell. My health took a turn for the worse in 2012 I simply can no longer finish what I started. This car needs to be owned and finished by a person that intends to keep a true part of the history of the modern day automobile.
I took this car down to the bare steel frame. I rebuilt over 90% of the cars wooden body chassis. It was rebuilt using dried Oak purchased from an Amish Lumber Mill. I planned each and every piece used to the exact width and thickness of the existing wood. Those pieces that were rotted to badly to use as a template, used blue prints I purchased from a gentleman in Canada. After rebuilding the wooden chassis the metal panels were then nailed back in place, oors were hung and painfully readjusted. This car when finished will be about 95% original (in my opinion). Any mechanical part I replaced this far were either original or a authorized Ford replacement part.
I purchased a brand new reproduced radiator made in original style by the Brass Works in California. This one piece was $1000.00. Motor and transmission were professionally rebuilt by a classic car garage (still in business) located in Cleveland Ohio. Rear end was drained flushed and oil was replaced with the suggested 600 weight drive train oil. New rear axle keys were put in place, ear brakes were replaced. Brand new reproduction Tires, nner tubes and flaps purchased from a tire manufacturer in Harrisburg PA. All four clincher's had to be replaced. I found and purchased original used clinchers from the Model T Haven Company. All four wooden spoke wheels are original. I have all the remaining metal trim parts required to finish the interior. I have two of the three seat springs required for the seats, lthough those should be replaced but can be repaired if you have the patients and time. All original glass is there but should be replaced to make the car a little safer when driving.
I did remove the original timer from the rebuilt engine and replaced it with a modern distributor. Using a distributor allows for the engine to be easier starting. New Champion spark plugs were installed along with new wiring. Spark advance rod was replace as required when using distributor. The new throttle rod needs to be installed. The carburetor was replaced with an original carburetor. I have new replacement parts on the shelf that have never been installed yet. I have the original parts that were removed and replaced, uch as the old radiator, as tank and so on.
This car is electric start over crank, mention this because the electric starter needs repaired. The Bendix was apparently repaired at some point and poorly done, omeone decided they could spot weld the Bendix gear which proved to be unsuccessful. Parts are readily available through auto parts whom specialize in Antique Car parts. They are what I refer to as the big three, ac's, ang's and Snyder's. I have up to date parts catalogs from these three and more. I also have service books specializing in the removal, epair and replacement of major parts for the car such as: Starter and Generator, arburetor, ear End and others. Also I have a booklet that describes every piece of glass in the car and there dimensions should you have to have glass made. Obviously I could go on and on with the description of this car and not mention every factor, ew used or otherwise so please if you have questions contact me, he only stupid questions are the ones you did not ask.
