Please clarify,
all sheetmetal: body, doors, fenders, etc. is listed as NOS (which means 1914 Ford factory produced, original, never used parts), and a Rootlieb radiator...yet NO reproduction parts? Are these true NOS parts or is all that stuff repro. by Rootlieb?
Also, what is a moore trans.?
 
All parts listed as nos in the ad are genuine Henry Ford steel made in 1914. This is likely the only NOS 1914 T rdstr body in existance.The story I got was that it was ordered to replace a wrecked body and never used.It stayed in the attic of a Ohio Ford dealer until about 30 years ago when a collector bought it. It was then sold with a collection to the person I got it from. The original crate was removed so it wouldnt deteriorate the body at contact points.It has all the wood in the body,door and turtle deck. no upholstry was ever installed.absolutely no rust or body damage.If you are looking to build a high point car...this is it..and a good value with the complete car and all my extra parts. The moore trans is in the driveshaft which allows you to use the stock 14 rear axle assembly.Sorry for the slow response.Price;$20,000 for all

Got a picture? I recall a '14 Runabout and a Torpedo, no roadster with or without a turtledeck.
Likely i am wrong, but i'd like to see a picture or two. I'm thinking they had a round gas tank behind the cab.
 
Yup, you're right. I looked it up this morning. The runabout has a turtledeck, i believe it was introduced in '13. The last year for the torpedo was '12 and it has the gas tank that i was remembering, i don't recall the difference between runabout and torpedo - makes no difference here.
