1910 Model T Ford Torpedo Roadster

Snake Plissken
One of the very few Ford Model T Torpedo Runabouts in 1/16 (the other is a Hudson Miniatures kit in wood). This is a unique Model T only produced for 1.5 years in this form. Molded in black, clear and "brass" plated parts. The model represents a "1911" Torpedo Runabout even though the car was introduced October 5, 1910 (start of the 1911 fiscal year). The original Lindberg model was motorized and contains a not-scale battery box in the rear but the bottom of the battery box can be cut away to match the rest of the frame rails. It's the only 1/16 T kit with a full motor. All 4 wheels turn and it steers (positionable front wheels). 4 out of 5 stars.
