Description of 1923 Ford Model T CUSTOM BUILT |
There are a lot of T Buckets being built out there. Some are built in back yards under a shade tree. some in the homeowners two car garage. some in the neighbors garage and some are built at a local body shop. in each of these builds it requires a purchase of a molded body. the purchase of a rail system or tubing where you make your own rails. When you start to put the car together you find your rail system doesn't fit properly so you start to modify either the body or the rails or both. Chances are the car never handles properly {some do} because the rails aren't straight or the body isn't centered properly. Then you paint the car and the first three groups have to wait for a non windy day and so many of our local body shops don't have proper spray booths. Then there are manufactures who specialize in building T Buckets. Not a lot of these folks around but there are a few who cast their own bodies. build their own rails who have equipment to determine the straightness of the tubing the squareness of the rail system. These folks produce a glove fit vehicle under the tight supervision of a quality control department. THIS IS ONE OF THOSE VEHICLES. More expensive than the do it yourself. ut. oh so worth it. Everyone has to determine for themselves what they are willing to spend. after all that's why there are Mercedes out there and used Chevrolet's. INTERESTING TRADES CONSIDERED ?????I have listed this beautiful T Bucket a few times and I know the real season is just starting. but it seems my Ebay friends may have misjudged what I think the fair value of this car is. I have had silly offers of $8. 00. 00. $10. 00 and a bid of just over $18. 00. This car was professionally built by Spirit Industries and it has just over 800 miles on it. I recently contacted them and they told me for them to build the car today it would cost right at $50. 00. 00 at my asking price thats a hit of about $10. 00 per mile. Am I the only person that sees the value here? If you think I still have it overpriced make me a reasonable offer but please before you make me a silly offer look around and see what you can buy at that price. This car has so many upgrades. they are too numerous to mention. I hope the pictures will tell you the story. Upgrades such as the Ferrari Red Paint. I could have used fire engine red but I wanted to maintain the quality level on this vehicle that was second to none. Those of you who are familar with Rossa Corsa Ferrari paint and the process to apply will be able to relate to the cost of this upgrade. If you have any questions please let me know. Interesting trades will be considered such as cars. high end firearms. oats and ???. I thank you for your consideration. I have several other interesting items listed if you care to take a peek. |
