Looking for a T near here... Sounds simple... but...

Post by Susanne » Fri Dec 30, 2022 12:01 pm

We moved to Italy. I sold Angel (deep regrets there) to make the move, but I am now in serious 3 pedal withdrawl and hope to find something close by that I can get back into the hobby...

If you know of a car for sale in the EU, please let me know. Extra kudos for a pre-16 (yeah, I'm a glutton for punishment, it seems!), and hope to find something so I can get my hands oily and/or greasy, EU legal, and well...

If you can help, let me know.

Thanks,
Susanne

I think you will be better off buying one here and having it shipped there.
  • Price When the German Cross Country Team was here visiting Craig Beek's Model T Museum we discussed prices. They felt that a car here would cost 2 to 4 times more over there.
  • Parts availability and shipping costs
--
If you decide to buy here and ship there I have a friend that provides this as a service. He acts as an intermediary between the buyer & seller, to make sure the funds transfer, signed Title & car change hands in the right order. He also can arrange transportation within the USA and across the Pond.
The past is a great place and I don't want to erase it or to regret it, but I don't want to be its prisoner either.

Hello.

I would not trust this offer from the T 1927. I'm from Switzerland and saw this Tin Lizzy advertised a while ago at a much higher price and with completely different specifications.
I think it's a scam!!!

Hello,
don't know if that helps, but if you have the time to spare, you might want to visit the Veterama in Mannheim (Germany): https://www.veterama.de/en/
Almost certainly there will be a T or two for sale there.

Apart from that, since I don't know if you're aware of these, it might also be a good idea to keep an eye on the various European "craigslist"-equivalents. To make things more confusing, each country has its own. From the top of my head:

https://www.leboncoin.fr/voitures/2218152879.htm France
https://www.marktplaats.nl/l/auto-s/for ... earTo:1927 Netherlands
https://auto.bazos.cz/inzerat/162178870 ... n-1915.php Czech Republic: 1915 Touring Car
https://auto.bazos.cz/inzerat/162178866 ... t-1914.php Czech Republic: 1914 Roadster

(I'm not affiliated with any of the sellers).
