Advertise this one under "rat rod." Harry's right. Just needs some love.
Oh. And it is obviously "ready for paint."

Mention that it is a rare and greatly sought-after original Ford NOS part that was found at the estate stale of a highly respected and, now, dearly departed Model-A restorer. Be sure and attach one of those red and white Ford script tags to it.

That's good but, don't directly say that it is rare and NOS. Always, start out with "I've been told that it is rare and NOS".........
Reduces accountabilty. Oh, and change your name from Allen.

Don't forget to put a plug in for your other RARE, parts you'll be listing later! Like the matching engine BLOCK, front and rear ends pulled out of a swamp <<<more patina, AND last but not least Genuine HENRY sheet metal, (the parts that are left after cutting out the rust.........) Of course all from the estate of an esteemed Model A restorer and collector. Funny, you can tell by all the authoritative comments we saw a LOT of fine original parts like this head on flebay already!

Yep, a little Ford green paint and it's good as new! Heck, I'd call it "restored original" in the flebay ad!

We haven't tested this. We know it's for a Model T because it's old. Will combine with other items to increase shipping costs.
If not completely satisfied you can return it for for a full refund less the $10xx handling fee and freight charges you pay both ways.
We aim to please...occassionally we miss...God bless.
