1900 Ford Tiller Steer Car
Glenwood Corbin used to call them a "Jitney".
From what I gather, until the advent of the Model T in 1903, the first Ford with a steering wheel, all previous models steered by a tiller.
Without closer examination, I cannot speak as to whether this is an original; several replica versions have been marketed, most in comes-in-a-box kit form, and most powered by a lawn-mower engine.
In some kits, cutting patterns are provided for plywood that you supply, along with no provided engine which you source yourself.
