Never has a car had more of an impact on automotive manufacturing processes than Henry Ford’s famous Model T. It wasn’t his first car, but it was the one that mobilized not only Americans, but the world. Made between 1908 and 1927, the Model T sold over 15 million units. Its record would not be surpassed until the Volkswagen Beetle many decades later. Another interesting fact is, as the Model T’s production processes were streamlined and optimized, the price of the car actually reduced! For example, a Model T cost US$825 in 1908 for the Runabout variant, with the Touring being priced at $850. By 1924, when this 1924 Ford Model T Touring was released, the Runabout was priced at $265! Being a Touring, this car would have cost a little more, but definitely less than $300. Isn’t that amazing? This particular car appears to have undergone a full restoration which is necessary when you consider that it’s over 100 years old! Now, it’s available in Longmont, Colorado.
Exterior and Interior
Eschewing Henry Ford’s famously rigid paint choices of black and only black, this 1924 Ford Model T Touring enjoys a nice red coat of paint that showcases its vintage lines in a nice manner. You can see how spartan cars were back then, little more than motorized horse carriages of sorts. With its open body, canvas top and wooden wheels, this is period motoring at its best, and yes, entire families did get around with this machine. The interior of this 1924 Ford Model T Touring is equally spartan. There’s no climate control, infotainment system or even windows of any sort! You’ve got bench seats, a wood-rimmed steering wheel, three pedals and some levers. But none of the pedals do what you expect them to! Driving a Model T is an art form because it’s got different controls to modern-day cars, including a steering wheel-mounted throttle! Yes, you need to practice a bit but it’s pretty easy to get to grips with.
Engine
Powering this 1924 Ford Model T Touring is a 177-cubic-inch (2896cc) naturally aspirated inline four-cylinder engine producing approximately 20 horsepower. Fuel is delivered through a single updraft carburetor, a simple and serviceable design that contributed to the Model T’s legendary reliability. Power is routed to the rear wheels through a two-speed planetary transmission, operated via pedal controls rather than a conventional gear lever. Starting is performed via hand crank, a defining feature of the era that connects driver and machine in a way modern cars simply cannot replicate. Lightweight construction and modest output make for a relaxed, deliberate driving experience, perfectly suited for appreciating the engineering breakthrough that forever changed the automotive world.
