1914 Towncar

Post by RustyFords » Wed Mar 06, 2019 8:59 pm

One of my favorite YouTube shows, Barn Find Hunters, has an original, unrestored 1914 Towncar...link below. It's pretty rough, but looks relatively solid.

The T appears at roughly 17 minutes into the video.

16:56 to 18:23. WoW! And I thought this would be just another day. The details shown are absolutely wonderful.
Thanks Don.

When did I do that?

Less than a minute and a half for the town car, but better than nothing I guess. You can see where the interest in "antique" automobiles centers ! Wonderful to know there's another towncar in existence. Thanks much for posting.

I was surprised that he spent that much time on the T. He usually skips over A's and T's and goes for the more glamorous stuff like muscle cars or exotics, which is surprising because I believe he's one of the co-authors of the "Coast to Coast in a Model T" book.

I do like the series though. He's essentially living 1/2 of my dream...finding and pulling great old original paint cars out of garages and barns, then getting them running and preserving them by stabilizing the old paint and interior.
