This belonged to previous estate holder Mr. Kessler of the Columbus, Ohio area. It is to be believed that Mr. Kessler was an Ohio State University professor whose main home was in the Arlington area (a suburb of Columbus). Kessler owned many high rise dormitories that he rented to Ohio State University students. He also owned a 600 acre beautiful Hocking Hills log cabin in a ravine area with what we call a “big boy toy” garage which is where this vehicle was stored along with 33 other vehicles. Kessler bought the best and the finest examples. If it was not up to his standards he would spend major money to restore them or have the best restoration done that money could buy. This Model T example is considered one of the oldest still existing and is from the age of the brass of the Model T era. This example has been restored 10 to 15 years ago and is a wonderful older restoration. The timing does not need to be adjusted, however most Model T owners know that these cars are very easy to work on. All four windows are present and complete. The new owner will need to replace the existing gas that remains in the vehicle because the vehicle has been in storage for two years.
