Description

Within the open cockpit sit 2 bomber style buckets in black vinyl. A long column steering wheel just rearward toward the seats and has an original steering wheel with the throttle and timing advance. A simple dash shows your volt meter, and has the ignition key, although this car is started via a flopper button. The Model T 3-pedal setup, brake on right, reverse gear in center, and 2-speed shifter pedal on the left is the go mode setup, and will take a bit to get accustomed to. Some original lanterns hang from either side of the dash and a central bigger lantern is on top. Ford marketed the 3-pedal setup as very easy for the ladies to drive, proving that all women are definitely smarter than any man because it was far from its purported intentions!
Donning a “Fronty” (Frontenac head) this Chevrolet Brothers endeavor was adapted for the Ford and put on top of their performance engines. This included a single intake port and 3 exhaust ports for crossflow design. It would boost power up to as much as 12 additional HP, and when you are talking about a top HP of 25 this was significant. A 4-cylinder aluminum piston engine with straight pipe exhaust, presents under the cowl with a single side draft carb, and a flywheel with no magnets all offer up less weight, and more speed.
