1927 Model T Ford Roadster Runabout

1927 Ford Model T Roadster

This car is so much fun to drive!I hate to sell it, but circumstances require it. This car was built with the best of everything. We meant to keep this car for good with over $30,000 invested in its restoration. It is the last of 4 we owned. Just finished the car less than a month ago.
1927 was the last year for the Model T and the Roadster Runabout.This model was only built in 1926 (336K) and 1927 (90,583). Very Rare! This model is unique with a large turtle (full trunk) and the longer cowl for driving comfort. Henry Ford shut the plant down in mid '27 to retool for the Model A.
