HERE I AM OFFERING UP ONE OF MY UNIQUE AND RARE SCHUCO VEHICLES. THIS IS THEIR MODEL NUMBER 4014 AND IS THEIR 1917 FORD COUPE T \"OLD-MUSICAL-CAR\" .... HEREAFTER REFERRED TO AS THE \"VEHICLE\". THE ONE BEING OFFERED HERE IS GOLD IN COLOR (AS PICTURED).I HAVE HAD THIS STASHED AWAY WITH A FEW HUNDRED (TO THOUSANDS) OR SO ADDITIONAL MODELS THAT I HAVE COLLECTED OVER THE PAST 5 PLUS DECADES. THIS VEHICLE WAS/IS MADE IN WESTERN GERMANY, WITH THE THORENS MUSIC BOX BEING MADE IN SWITZERLAND.THIS FORD MODEL T WORKS PERFECTLY AND THE TWO (2) SIDE LEVERS, ONE OF WHICH IS THE CLUTCH AND THE OTHER IS A HAND BRAKE, WORK AS DESIGNED. ONLY WITH THE CLUTCH LEVER (THE INNER LEVER) ACTING AS THE \"ON/OFF\" SWITCH FOR THE THORENS MUSIC BOX. ALL OF WHAT YOU HAVE HERE CAME WITH THIS MODEL AS NEW AND ALL WORKS PERFECTLY .... TO INCLUDE THE HAND BREAK LEVER OR PARKING BRAKE (WHICH IS THE OUTER LEVER) WHICH LOCKS UP THE RIGHT REAR TIRE WHEN THIS LEVER IS PULLED TO THE REAR OF THIS MODEL T.YOU WILL NOTICE THAT THIS VEHICLE HAS A RHD OR RIGHT HAND DRIVE VS. THE LHD OR LEFT HAND DRIVE WHICH IS FOUND HERE IN THE STATES INDICATING THAT THIS MUSIC BOX WAS ORIGINALLY DESIGNED FOR THE BRITISH OR UK MARKET. AS I MENTIONED ABOVE, THIS SCHUCO \"OLD-MUSICAL-CAR\" HAS AN 18 NOTE, SWISS MADE, THORENS MUSIC BOX. THE MELODY THIS MUSIC BOX PLAYS IS THAT, IN GERMAN IS CALLED \"DIE ITARRE UND DAS MEER\" OR IN ENGLISH, \"THE GUITAR AND THE SEA\". THIS MUSIC BOX STILL PLAYS THIS TUNE WITH NO DIFFICULTIES OR DELAYS AS THE CLOCKWORK DRIVE OF THIS THORENS MUSIC BOX IS STILL STRONG (AND ORIGINAL). YOU HAVE THE ORIGINAL SCHUCO KEY ALSO INCLUDED.THE BODY OF THIS 1917 FORD IS IN EXCELLENT ALL AROUND CONDITION WITH THE ONLY CONCERN BEING A SLIGHT DISCOLORATION ON THE VEHICLES ROOF (AS PICTURED). YOU HAVE NO DINGS, DENTS, RUST, CORROSION, CREASES OR ISSUES WITH THIS BODY (OTHER THEN THE SLIGHT DISCOLORATION, JUST NOTED). THE WHEELS ARE ALL ROUND AND TRUE. YOU HAVE NO FLAT SPOTS, DRY ROT OR CRACKS ON ANY OF THEM, THESE ALL SPIN FREELY.THE CHASSIS IS AS CLOSE TO NOS (NEW OLD STOCK) AS ONE WOULD HOPE FOR. HERE IS WHERE YOU WIND UP THE THORENS MUSIC BOX.A COOL THING TO NOTE IS THE THE TINY STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS THE OUTER TWO (2) FRONT WHEELS!
