1923 Ford Model T Additional Info:

Very nice and complete Ford Model T Snowmobile. Please do some research on these as they were made by The Snowmobile Company in West Ossipee, NH and sold through local Ford dealers. Most sales were to Mailmen and doctors who needed to travel roads prior to any plowing(prior to 1934 most secondary roads were not plowed they were often rolled). This was a mail vehicle and last registered in 1934. NO TITLE FOR THIS VEHICLE. I do have some material from when it was used as a mail vehicle in NY. I have done some upgrades to make it usable. I changed the Model T wheels and rims for Model A as the Model T drive wheels would often spin inside the tracks and not grab. The tracks are SnowBird tracks which allowed me to put SnowBird tires on the drive wheels. These tires have "paddles" that fit into the lugs on the SnowBird tracks. It now drives without any slippage. I changed the heavy metal front skis to the lighter wooden original equipment skis which are much lighter and easier to turn. I have the metal SnowBird skis and will include them in the sale. I built a mount in the bed for the front tires to attach to when not in use. Original oil lamps on front and rear. I upgraded the 6 volt driving lights and tail light to 6 volt led bulbs which are much brighter. I was going to change the radiator to an aluminum one but haven't got around to it and I will include that with the sale as well. This is now a very fun usable Model T snowmobile. No snow in the past 3 years here in Northwestern PA to be able to enjoy it. Ruckstell two speed TT rear end. Please text me at 1-814-598-2286 for a couple videos of this machine in operation, the files were too big to upload here.
