Description
The car was rediscovered in the early 1980s by Leif Fregelin, who acquired it for restoration. After several years of dedicated work, the car was brought back to roadworthy condition. During the restoration, Leif's wife sewed a new interior for the Ford, while Leif himself handled the mechanical work. Eventually, the car was once again registered and put back on the road.
The current owner bought the car from Leif Fregelin in 2017. Today, it remains in good, usable condition. It has passed inspection and is ready to drive. Some documentation comes with the car.

Facts about the model
Henry Ford had a unique concept. As Model T production ramped up and assembly line methods drove down manufacturing costs, Ford continually lowered the car's price—something that would be unthinkable today. His goal was to make the Model T affordable even for factory workers, including those in his own plants.
From the late 1930s onward, many worn-out Model Ts were repurposed as power sources for threshers and sawmills. Others were converted into so-called "EPA tractors" for use on farms.
Model T axles and wheels were also commonly reused to build trailers. In this way, the Model T played a role in the mechanization and modernization of Swedish agriculture—long after its retirement as a passenger car. Today, many of these vehicles have been brought back to life after countless hours of restoration by dedicated enthusiasts.
At its peak, the Model T sold 50,000 units on the Swedish market.
