Ford Flat Tail 1940 Description
Restored and upgraded prewar flat tail style midget race car. Not run since 2013 when I purchased it.Engine was race built.Ignition converted to 12 volt. Original body was restoredwith the original modified 1932 Ford grill shell. Original brakes changed from mechanical to hydraulic using a Harley Davidson master cylinder.Chassis is originalrail style with modified Franklin front axle and Model T Ford rear axle. Has an in/out box, thus push start only, no starter.
Needs to be brought back to life, by adding coolant, fuel,battery and brake fluid. Rear tires will need tubes and all other components will need a general going over. Or, use it as is foran outstanding display piece as I have.
There is no title for this vehicle, as it was built as a race vehicle.
