When it comes to Model T’s, 99% of those produced were right off the production line.  Everything was standard, even the color (you could have any color as long as it was black).  For those very few Model T’s that were not production cars, most collectors will agree that the 1% custom bodied Model T’s are the most desirable for collecting. 

 

The early Model T town cars that were chauffeur driven are as rare as hen’s teeth.  Probably the next rarest type of Model T would be a Depot Hack.  These were bodied by many different body builders but they all had the same purpose and that was to haul plenty of people and luggage from the ranch or farm home into town and very often to the train station, back then called the depot.

 

Today Depot Hack’s are highly desirable and sought after by Model T collectors that want something more unusual then a touring car or a two or four door sedan.  These Depot Hacks are also sought after by collectors who like to load up the kids and grandkids and take them on a most unusual ride in a Model T.  There are some collectors who like to have the Model T in their garage just to be able to go out and take a look and feel the pride of ownership.  The really good news about a Model T Depot Hack, even though it is custom bodied and extremely rare and a lot of fun, the prices are relatively very, very cheap in this car collector market.

 

The car that you see before you was purchased by a gentleman who bought this vehicle in the early 1970s purchased it from the man who had bought it in 1934.   In the early 1970s the car was restored and the original body was discarded and was rebodied into this fabulous Depot Hack and used extensively during the 1970s and the 1980s for parades and rally’s.  The Depot Hack has been very well maintained over the years and was always stored inside.  Mileage is unknown.

 

As you can see from the many tour badges and parade photos it was driven all over.  Note the photo of the eight men in the Depot Hack – you can bring all your friends along for the fun!  The gentleman who restored this vehicle took great pride in this beauty and the care it has received shows in the very fine condition it is still in today. 

 

Several years ago when the gentleman who restored this car passed away, he left the car to his very young nephew.   Over the years the car has been well maintained and stored with a very good friend who has taken great care to exercise it and keep it in great running condition.  Recently he installed a fresh battery.  

 

We at MissChiTown love the Ford green paint with the black bumpers that show off the beauty of the wood perfectly!  A vinyl top covers the wood top.   The wood seats have black cushions.  It is believed that the original 4 cylinder engine is in this Depot Hack for sale.   The manual transmission is operated by three pedals on the floor, (the care taker of this vehicle said it was like an early type of automatic transmission).   These old Model T’s are well known for their dependability and this one still is going strong.  The caretaker says this Depot Hack is stored inside except when it taken out to be exercised to keep it in great running condition.

 

We love the way the tailgate provides access to transport the passenger’s luggage but as you can see from one parade picture it has also been utilized to transport extra passengers.  There is a visor over the windshield.  The caretaker says it has a crank start but he prefers the convenience of the electric start.  The electric start may have been an upgrade by the gentleman who restored it. 

 

The nephew who is sadly selling this vehicle hopes that the new owner will enjoy it and have fun taking it on rally’s and will be proud to show it off in parades as his uncle did over the years.

 

The seller has placed a modest reserve on this vehicle so everybody can bid!  If you have any questions on this great Model T give us a call at 847-774-4857.

2015 Ford Mustang gets pricing, configurator and less weight than expected

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

It's here; it's finally here. No more speculating or looking at dealer order guides, the configurator for the 2015 Ford Mustang is finally online. That means you should put down whatever you're doing and build your new 'Stang. Weight data for the new model has also leaked out, and while there is an increase, it's less than previously rumored.
The basic V6 coupe carries a base price of $23,600, plus an additional $825 destination charge for all models. Upgrading to the 2.3-liter Ecoboost costs $25,170, and the Ecoboost Premium is $29,170. If you need a V8 in your life, the Mustang GT is $32,100 or $36,100 with the Premium package. That puts the starting price up about $1,000 over the previous generation for the V6, but the turbocharged four-cylinder starts about $1,400 less than the V6 Premium, which is no longer available. Prices for both V8 models jumped about $1,000, as well.
If you need the convertible Mustang, the V6 starts at $29,100, excluding destination, $1,590 more than last year. The Ecoboost Premium 'vert is $34,670, and the GT droptop is $41,600.

Michigan museum offers Model T driving classes

Sun, 29 Dec 2013

Halfway between Detroit and Chicago, there is a car museum that gives visitors a unique level of interaction with antique cars. The Gilmore Car Museum in Hickory Corners, MI has a driver's training class to teach people of any age to learn how to drive a Ford Model T.
From the crank starter to the column-mounted throttle control, this driving school teaches people all there is to know about driving and operating a Model T. Each class lasts about two and a half hours and is only open to 18 students. There are ten sessions planned for 2014 - twice a day on May 3, June 22, July 22, August 23 and September 14. The class costs $95 (or $85 for members), and it also includes a tour of the museum's automobile collection.
In addition to this driving school, the museum has plenty of exhibits on the property, and it's open all but three days per year (Easter, Christmas and New Year's Day) with free admission for school field trips and active military. Be sure to check out the Gilmore Car Museum's website or visit them on Facebook for more info.

Ford to reveal Vignale sub-brand with special Mondeo in Frankfurt

Tue, 03 Sep 2013

Ford says that 10-15 percent of its customers in Europe want their cars to be set apart from regular Fords - even those wearing the top Titanium X trim - and the Blue Oval will answer them with the Vignale sub-brand. The new brand proposes a more upscale look and a much-improved dealership experience, Autocar reports. The Vignale Mondeo will debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show to kick off the new endeavor.
The first Ford to receive the Vignale treatment will be the 2015 Mondeo, a Euro-only model, followed by the new S-Max and Edge. The Vignale Mondeo is set apart visually from other Mondeos by a chrome grille and chrome door handles and mirror caps. Mondeo badging will be deleted - only Vignale badging will make an appearance.
The interior will get a more upscale flavor, as well, with quilted leather seats and door trim and leather covering the instrument panel, center console and steering wheel. A Vignale-badged storage drawer will be installed in the trunk, and in-car Wi-Fi is available.
