1919 FORD T TORPEDO - History:
Introduced in 1908, the Ford Model T is undoubtedly one of the most important automobiles in history. Conceived by Henry Ford, it revolutionized the automotive industry thanks to its simple, robust design and mass production, making the automobile accessible to the general public for the first time.
With over 15 million units produced between 1908 and 1927, the Model T was equipped with a 2.9-liter 4-cylinder engine paired with the famous two-speed planetary transmission controlled by pedals—a layout that became iconic for early Fords.
Description:
The vehicle presented here is a Torpedo version built in 1919. It has undergone a period-correct restoration that has since developed a patina, and comes with a certificate of authenticity issued by the Royal Veteran Car Club Belgium attesting to its year of manufacture. Its chassis number and engine number match the documents provided.
This Ford Model T features an elegant black paint scheme paired with original black upholstery that has developed a beautiful patina.
The car appears to be particularly complete and consistent. It retains its original Ford engine, planetary transmission, wooden wheels, folding windshield, and all of its characteristic accessories. The engine compartment is complete, and the vehicle appears to have been stored indoors for many years.
The chassis appears to be in particularly good condition for its age, with only superficial corrosion visible. The undercarriage reveals a very sound structure, indicating an authentic and consistent vehicle that provides an excellent foundation for a return to the road or a conservation restoration.
The registration certificate lists chassis number 84080, which was not found on the vehicle. Only the engine number 3222889 was identified.
