1922 Ford Armadillo bodied Boat-tail SPEEDSTER number 14 of 17 produced

Description for Ford Model T 1922

1922 Ford speedster. This is a rare "armadillo" body boat tail with a rebuilt (about 1000 miles ago) engine and transmission, probably the best speedster I ever owned and have had it the longest (11 years). the body is number 14 of supposedly 17 cars produced in the 60's. This car was painted with 21 coats of lacquer. The restoration can be seen here: http://customfurniture.net/yellow/ other photos are here: http://www.customfurniture.net/index_files/Page406.htm VIDEO is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEzJzuwkqLw&feature=youtu.be
