Young man wearing a hat like that, with a twinkle in his eyes and a seemingly constant smile - what a friendly guy. Fascinating old car, thanks for the ride!

Yeah Buddy!! Jonny is all about having fun, He's living the life!!☻
When my Aunt met and married my Uncle in the late Twenties he had a T model equipped with a Sears and Roebuck aluminum race car body , and all of the period speed equipment of the time . He claimed that it had been clocked at 80 mph , but that with the stock two wheel only brakes it took 80 miles to get it stopped . His own children had never known about their dad's exploits in his youth , until I mentioned it to them a few years ago .
That's freaking cool

Imagine having to be a "______ guy" and stuck in some kind of blind loyalty rut. At least you're *willing* to have a Model T, that would make you a Ford guy then wouldn't it?

That's a cool car Thank you for taking us long Thank you for the video
Why is this called a 1926 model T ? The brass radiator and flat firewall went away in the late teens of model T production. I guess the engine, frame and running gear could be 26. It is a running driving model T so it is pretty cool.
Now speaking as a brit, I WOULD call that rear storage a trunk, cos a trunk is a removable container generally made of wood or leather, and a boot (stemming from horse-drawn carriages and the driver's boot-locker storage for his muddy footwear) is built into the vehicle... :P

A boot is worn on your feet. You only have a boot if you can't afford a car.

The model T is an American car. American cars have trunks not boots.

@@garycamara9955 And a trunk is a wood or leather chest that would be strapped onto a vehicle, be it horse & cart, carriage, car, or thrown into the luggage carriage of a train, so, whereas "a boot" is short for a boot locker, a storage compartment built into a carriage in which a driver stored things they needed as part of their job, such as their footwear, so they could have a clean pair for good weather, and dirty boots for muddy weather, so there you go, English language history lesson for you...

I used to restore and build spoked car wheels. I love these T speedsters but those old wire wheels spook the heck out of me. They may be period correct but I'd personally go with real spoked wheels or build some discs wheels. Think I's also put a crush section in the steering column and some sort of roll bar too.
Wow, that car and the ride were both amazing!

It doesn't "present" as a 1926 Model T at all because at that point they were quite refined like the Model A. A 1926 "T" is way past the brass era and no longer used the brass, octagonal radiator and hood for one thing.
Nobody drove 100mph on the 20s, hence the phrase goin like 60.
Where is this, it looks like Pennsylvania?
