Help identifying the year built

Post by Robert81155 » Sun Dec 22, 2019 5:58 pm

My wife and I recently inherited her dad's model T. We believe probably an early 20's model. It's a roadster with a single door on the passages side and back tires are 30 x 3 1/2. All the wheels have wooden spokes. It has a zenith carburetor, and a sorta round radiator. The wind shield slants in and is divided. Not for sure if any of this came on it originally. It appears he converted it to 12v since it has a floor mounted push button for starting and a Mitsubishi alternator on it. My father-in-law was a body man and using parts from different year models wasnt an issue for him. But we want to restore as close to original as possible. She remembers when it ran but I need to order a few parts and model year would help with that

Robert, welcome. Some good photos of all four sides and front and rear suspension and detailed photos of the engine and interior inluding peddles would help to determine a year and changes made. The knowledge here is amazing. These people can and will give you the info you are looking for.

I do have a few photos on my phone, but cannot figure out how to post them here. I am not exactly tech savvy.
