Which tools? Ford T came with a factory tool kit for the owner. But the type and number of tools changed over the years from 1909-1927, and its difficult to know when on each part design or style. You can find some photos in Ford Parts and Price lists to describe some. However research on early tool kit tools is difficult, as many have no descriptions, some un-marked. There isn't a complied listing of all. The owner tool kit pictured is typical of '25-'27 with some variations of the jack and other pieces.

As for factory repair tools for the Model T, these are know as "5-Z" and this link has a listing for most of Model T repair tools.

The earlier tools had used a 3Z starting number. I would suggest if you can post some photos of the tools. When you lay the tools out to photograph put a piece of tape with a number under or by each tool that way we can refer to that number/tool.
