Our 1913 Marmon 48B Speedster. 145" wheelbase 9.3 Liters. Ground thumper. Same engine that propelled the Marmon Wasp to win the first indanapolis 500!
Our 1927 Speedster Model T. I already had the Marmon and saw the Model t, no history on it, but someone really loved it. Came with a wonderful trailer made for it.
Engine:
Balanced Model A crank
Dual Solex Carburetors
Custom exhaust
Foot Throttle
Pressurized oil system with cannister filter
Ruckstell axle
More fun to drive than the Marmon!

Re: Marmon and Model T speedsters
What a beast The Marmon is. Having ridden in a Mercer, I can only imagine. And 2 more cylinders.
I'm glad to hear you are enjoying the T.
Thanks for the photos.

Re: Marmon and Model T speedsters
Wow,I love that Marmon! That is 1 NICE car! I love that big engine to.
Would that be the same Marmon that built semi trucks? I know my dad drove 1 for a fellow a couple years and he loved it.

You can dissect a Model T; but you can’t kill it!
