FORD MODEL "T" ROADSTER C. 1915 | FOR SALE

[Selkirk_Haley]

This circa 1915 Ford Model T roadster was owned by well-known collectors Bill Rader and John Williams who lived in the Los Angeles area. The car was restored by Bill Rader back in the 1970s.

The Frontenac heads were built during the 1920s and were used for Model T racing purposes. The engine has a downdraft Ford carburetor, and a distributor update as well. The rear axle has been fitted with hydraulic brakes. The car has a desirable, period-correct, accessory Buffalo wire wheels with white wall tires.
