Default Re: New T owner

The T is a 1921 or 1922 "Model Year", Ford as has all the features of the '1922', wood firewall, metal dashboard, Two man top, straight folding top windshield and other features.

The 1922 (Model Year) ran from August 1921 to September 1922.

A 1923 (Model Year) Ford would have slanting windshield with slanted stanchions, with the top pane only that swivels to open, and 'one-man' top with no irons by the front seat. The new 1923 (Model Year) open cars were built September 1922 to July 1923.

Noted the old tag on your T seems to be a 1921?

Really nicely done too. Great T.

And seems to have a nifty aftermarket steering column bracket to the dashboard, as the 1922 didn't have a bracket there. The Ford factory steering column bracket was introduced later with the metal firewall in the 1923 (Model Year) T's.
