Description: Ford Model T Touring serial number 220, built in December 1908 as part of the 1909 model year, on display in the Ford Piquette Avenue Plant in Detroit, Michigan, where it was originally built. This is the second-oldest Model T known to still exist (the oldest is owned by a private collector in Connecticut). It is one of a very small number of surviving Model Ts to have the original two-pedal, two-lever transmission, along with the early water-pump-equipped engine. Ford switched to the Model T's standard three-pedal, one-lever transmission after the first 800 cars or so. This car also lacks the Touring model's optional windshield.
