In 1908 Henry Ford had the idea of making travel affordable to the American middle class, thus the invention of the Model T. The Model T took the country by storm and made over 15 million of these bad boys from 1908 to 1927. Ford offered a few different colors in 1908 when they first came out, but later in 1914, he demanded that every T produced must be black for efficiency of his new moving assembly line. Every T came with the 177cui 4 cylinder flat head, and a 2-speed planetary gear transmission, but as the T grew in popularity, so did its aftermarket with companies like Muncie offering different transmissions and rear axles kits. America loved the T, even giving it nicknames like “”Tin Lizzie”” or “”Fliver””.

110 years later, we are proud to present you with yet another Model T. This Model T is known as a Brass T for the brass furniture and iconic brass radiator. The “”Brass Cars”” were only produced from 1908 to 1916 before they later changed to the steel radiators. Although only making a whopping 20 horsepower, this T has some get up and go. Not optioned with an electric starter, this Model T requires you to crank the engine by hand. The vibrant red color this car is painted in contrasts the brass very well making for a unique looking Model T.

This T is really an experience to drive and it drives very well with surprisingly tight steering and a super smooth ride. This car is a true piece of American history and is undoubtedly the most influential car ever produced
