Overview of 1926 Ford Model T For Sale by Owner

The Ford Model T needs little introduction. It’s a model that is intrinsically woven into the fabric of automotive culture, being one of the first cars to be produced with affordability in mind, helping shape the industry into what it is today. The Model T served as the basis for Henry Ford’s revolutionary advances in vehicle production, where he popularised the assembly line that is used throughout various manufacturing industries today. The Model T itself was kept affordable thanks to a simple design and assembly process, with limited model variants and interchangeable parts. Additionally, the Model T was recognized as being very reliable, making ownership and maintenance of the car a realistic proposition to many families. Our featured car is a​ 1926 Ford Model T that has undergone a thorough restoration process and is now offered for sale as a valuable piece of motoring history.

Exterior and Interior

The design of the Model T formed a basic template for many cars to follow. It featured a simple structure with steel panels affixed to a steel frame. It also benefited from high ground clearance for more rutted roads and an upright cabin, with the engine up front. The owner of this 1926 Ford Model T reports that the car was subjected to a frame-off restoration in 2022. During this process, the chassis was renovated and coated with an anti-rust treatment. The body was repainted in the lovely shade of orange you see here, while the floor was refurbished in wood. The wood and leather roof was also replaced, while new turn signals and new tires were also sourced. The work continued to the Model T’s interior. While the original seats and bench seats were retained and refurbished, preserving the car’s originality, the cabin features new upholstery. You’ll also find a new steering wheel to complete the experience.

Engine

Featuring a 2.9-liter (177ci) inline four-cylinder, this 1926 Ford Model T’s engine has been completely rebuilt, with reportedly less than 100 miles run since completion. During the rebuild process, many new parts were sourced and installed, including new cylinder valves, a new head gasket, and new hoses. The owner reports that the distributor has been refurbished, while the Model T also sports a rebuilt starter motor. The drivetrain sees a new two-gear transmission, while the car’s battery, wheel bearings, and bushings have also been replaced.
