By 1926, Ford was starting to see sales of its Model T fall off, as consumers embraced faster and more stylish offerings from competing brands. Though noticeably below 1923?s peak of more than two million units sold, 1926 would still see more than 1.5 million Model Ts leave Ford dealerships with new owners. Of the variants available, the most popular was the Touring model, like this 1926 Ford Model T Touring for sale on Hemmings.com. This particular example is equipped with a number of mechanical upgrades from the later Ford Model A, and the addition of rear disc brakes means that this car is more of a driver than an investment vehicle, but the upgrades will likely make the learning curve involved in owning an antique automobile less steep. From the seller?s description:
