Description

This 1909-1927 Ford Model T & Model TT Service Manual is an extremely high-quality, licensed reproduction. It's commonly known as the Model T Bible by Model T owners and enthusiasts around the world. It's no wonder why. This handy, 320 page guide is loaded with all of the information you'll need to service your "Tin Lizzie". Just as the Model T changed the world by providing consistency, affordability and interchangeability, this manual was written specifically to, "standardize the method of repairing Ford cars, to insure continued and satisfactory performance of our product the world over." That partial quote comes directly from the Foreword of this Model T manual. It goes on to explain that the pages, "show in a clear and concise manner the 'authorized Ford way' of performing the various operations." The reason so many enthusiasts refer to this shop manual as the Model T Bible is because it is the definitive, source of service information for these landmark vehicles. It was written by the automaker, and they advise that the methods included in it were carefully developed in the Ford factory so that they could be sure to provide, "definite and detailed instructions to skilled as well as unskilled mechanics." That's just what they have done.

This comprehensive Ford Model T & Model TT Service manual surely belongs in the garage of every owner of these legendary classics. With it, assistance for jobs of all sizes will be right at your finger tips. When it comes time for service and repair, you'll want to have the complete and correct procedures (and specifications!) to get the jobs done right. All machines require maintenance, and that's certainly true for ones that are approaching (or have eclipsed) the century mark! Fortunately, this guide has you covered. It has been intensively and extensively cleaned and assembled by the publisher. This is NOT some old scan reproduction. You'll discover this newly printed and packaged guide features sharp, dark text against white backgrounds. You'll also love that the detailed text has been handily paired with a variety of visual aids. The images and illustrations in this service manual are crisp and clear.

Beyond this service manual, you'll be wanting...and needing, parts. Luckily, we've done some searching and found a helpful web page containing a thorough list of Model T parts suppliers. We're happy to help point you in the right direction. Please click here to view Mitch Taylor's Ford Model T Parts and Restoration Resources.
