1908 Ford Model K Runabout

The Ford Model K was part of the Alphabet Series of early Fords donated to the AACA Museum by the Porter family. It was restored many years ago and only used as a static display. In 2010, volunteer members of the Pennsylvania Susquehannock Region of the Antique Automobile Club of America donated their time to refurbish the car and make it roadworthy. The 40-horsepower, 405 cubic-inch motor was the largest engine produced by the Ford Motor Company, until after WWII. There are less than two dozen Model Ks existing today with less than half being Gentleman's Roadsters.

The 1908 Ford Model K was offered as a touring car and a runabout. Ford produced the K, N, R and S models in 1908. Production of the Model T began in October. This particular model is classified as a Mother-In-Law Seat Roadster. Today, only 10 examples of the Model K are known to exist. The rear car was refurbished by members of AACA's Susquehannock Region in 2010 and shown at several major venues, which earned it a 2011 invitation to the Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance.
