Thank you for posting Leo. The pointed deck should indicate a Model S runabout. If that's the case, it should have 28 inch tires/wheels, although the description mentions 30 inch. Either way, an attractive early Ford runabout.

It's always a treat to see these cars. That little turtle back is so captivating.
Thanks for bring it here.

Oops found why i can't post in classifieds vehicles section, you apparently have to be a MTFCA member or pay a very reasonable $20 fee, as it is not my car and do not have anything to do with it or its seller, i'll leave it here for your info.
have a good weekend,
Leo

Good thing Rob doesnt speak Flemish. He doesnt have an R or S in his garage. However, Dick Lodge could probably go over and get it for him. :)

Is the rear axle correct for the year. It looks like a mid twenties small drum model t exle. Beautiful car. Just my two cents. Frank

Frank, when i looked at the photo showing the rear end and pointed trunk, it looked correct. NRS, as with Mosdel K, had a beefy differential and housing, as opposed to early Model T diffs. One difference from 1906 Model N and 1907/08 NRS was that the support rods at the diff housing were straight on the 07/08 versions, but straight on 06 N. a minute difference.
