Additions since our purchase include dual six volt Optima vertical celled batteries wired in parallel along with a floorboard mounted battery cut-off switch with a removable key. A chrome radiator stone guard was added as was a Moto-Meter radiator temperature thermometer. Door hinge mounted side view "Peep-Mirrors" with the right side being convex; provide an additional margin of safety when changing lanes. Bumper inserted LED directionals with a hazard light feature and a rear window interior mounted LED stop light compliment the original left fenders single stop, tail and license plate lamp. Headlamp and cowl lenses have been replaced as were all of the six volt bulbs. Her floor boards were replaced using exterior plywood and given several coats of varnish and covered with a new full rubber floor mat. The fuel tank has been chemically cleaned and correctly lined to prevent any rust formation. A new teeter-totter fuel gauge with a synthetic float replaced the original cork version. A driver's side vacuum windshield wiper motor replaced the original hand operated system. The odometer is currently non-functional and the actual mileage is unknown; however, the oil is changed in the fall and a stabilizer is added to a full fuel tank. Modern chassis grease fittings replaced the originals that required an antiquated grease gun fitting. She has been recently tuned with new spark plugs and the distributor has been fitted with modern ignition points, a new condensor, rotor, distributor cap, ignition coil and coil wire. Her timing is spot on and she will start with a few turns of a remanufactured starter. Right and left side hood props allow a partial lift of the hood for any routine maintenance; such as an oil level check. To go along with the sale is an all weather semi-custom car cover, a scissor jack with a fabricated block for lifting the rear axle and a combination crank and lug nut wrench that stow under the seat if their need should ever occur. To say that she is absolutely perfect would be untruthful as there have been a few paint chips that have been touched up and do not take away from her beauty considering she is eighty-seven years young. The beige mohair seat has several extremely small imperfections that for the most part are unnoticeable. Her body is finished in Ford's original paint colors of a Chicle Drab body, Copra Drab roof, Straw spoked wheels with Straw body accent striping. While driving this seldom seen example of American motor history, expect to receive a number of horn toots and "thumbs up" from other motorists and pedestrians as well. The real fun is reciprocating with the new and seldom heard sound of a Sparton "A-OOGAH"!
