    I have just returned from a 1300km (800 miles) trip in my 1927 Model T tourer, here in Australia, for the 2022 Model T National Rally. Was a great time and ‘Reg’, my T, ran beautifully.

    @@HoodSlappersOfficial It started Saturday 24th September and finished Saturday 1st October 2022. Took just under 5 hours to do the 300km there (same on the return). No failures of any kind. Being a 27 mine has wire wheels so more modern, but still narrow, tyres. They run at 30psi. I knew the one in your video was Canadian as Canada produced 4 door cars as the bodies etc were shipped to RHD countries as well. Australia received their chassis, engines, etc from Canada. My car was assembled by Ford here in Geelong, Victoria, Australia as food took over assembly and marketing here from 1925.

I have driven 8 or 10 Ts in the past year, and I have mixed feelings about the '27. It feels more solid than the early cars, but the driving position is just misserable for bigger taller guys like me. Regardless... you guys rock!!!

    Ford decided upon black for assembly line cards because black paint dried more quickly than the others. He figured getting rid of the fingerprints in the paint was more important than having pretty colours. That's why they only produced black T's for several years. Canadian cars used a variety of colours as their assembly methods did not involve the high-speed assembly line.

    One of the lesser known details about Ts I have learned in the past year... Rouge over time became the component source, and Highland Park was the mother assembly plant, but MANY Model Ts sold in the US, and all sold into foreign countries left Michigan as knocked down kits to be finished by local final assembly sites. AND... Canada played a unique role as kit supplier to the UK Commonweath. Among other firsts... the Model T was the first global car.

    In 1972, I bought a new SAAB. The manual for it describes the purpose of its many features. One of which was the velour upholstry. The velour helped to prevent hemroids caused by putting that part of your anatomy in direct contact with a very cold, or very hot, horse leather seat. The blanket hanging in the back for passenger, reminded me of that use. While it could be used as a warmer, its most probable use was to sit on.

    Hello to some of my favorite Canadians. Your neighbor to the North (metro D-troit) here. Once again, loved your video. I am one of those guys who drives a Model T at Greenfield Village.This 1913 is a dead ringer visually for a 1914 in our fleet at Greenfield, save for the left front door. When we talk Model T and rarity, that inspires a question: Are you guys familiar with the Centennial edition cars built in 2003? There are also very rare... just six of them all looking and driving just like 1914 US built touring cars. If not, and you are interested, maybe a visit to Greenfield could be arranged next spring. One additional comment: Greenfield has one Cadadian built T, a 1926 black touring car, and one US built 1927 touring car in burgundy with yellow wire wheels. I addition to reinstating color choices, there were several additional changes for the last two model years: 1. The fuel tank moved to a higher position in the cowl, to improve hill climbing ability. 2. The left and right pedals were reshaped as levers... most drivers find them annoying. 3. The front seat sits closer to the floor, reducing the legroom from cramped to painful for taller drivers. 4. Wheels switched from wooden artillery style to steel welded wire spokes. Wheels and tires are smaller in diameter, reducing ride height. 5. Body styles that had been steel panel over wood frames became all steel. The cars became heaviier, but do sound and feel more solid. 6. The touring car folding top height was reduced, contributing to an overall height reduction of about six inches.

    @@HoodSlappersOfficial Hey... great to read your reply. I do not have a Model T of my own. The Henry Ford Museum / Greenfield Village owns 14 Model Ts (plus around six Model As) and employs several dozen part time drivers... We give tours of the Village using authentic Ts from mid April through Christmas each year. The cars are not registered for use on public roads. Occasionally we get special permission to participate in parades and shows. But otherwise the cars are only driven within the village. Still, that can add up to eight hours of continuous driving of 100 year old cars in a normal day. Stay in touch... I sense a great opportunity for a visit sometime next year!

    Growing up in north of Greensboro, NC was interesting. In 1970 my Dad found an old Model T frame in a bunch of Honey-Suckles. He immediately started hunting parts. Six years later, he had a complete show quality, 1911 Model-T Torpedo Roadster. The only non-factory part, was the convertible top material. There was so much brass on that car, I developed a hatred for the smell of Brasso. Today he has a 2 touring T's. I laugh because many people think these cars don't have an ignition key. Oh how wrong they are. It's in the center of the coil-box switch. I still remember how those coils would sing their beautiful song right when my Dad rotated the engine to cranking position.

    @@HoodSlappersOfficial Sorry, I had to take a call and just noticed that I had forgotten to finish a sentence. (The only non-factory part, was the convertible top material.) He even had the complete tool-kit. My Dad is still a member of "Tarheel T's". The real horror story was when I was about 10yrs old. It was a cool spring Saturday morning and we were getting the car ready for the upcoming shows. My Dad had never shown me how to drive the car, but had shown me how to drive all of our tractors. The big shop door was still closed and wanted to crank it and let it warm up. He told me to hold the (B) pedal down, but I thought (we always push the clutch pedal when cranking up the tractors) and he must've misspoken. So I pushed and held the (C) pedal down. He pulled just once and she fired right up and took off forwards!! Before he could get out of the way, the drivers-side front fender had pinned his wrist to the shop door and the tires were squealing on the painted floor!! Luckily all this happened in only a 2or3sec span and I had seen in the past how he would make it reverse. I was able to quickly push the (B) pedal too and she backed up off of him. Luckily it only sprained his wrist, but my Dad was more worried about that Fender, than his hand almost being amputated. The fender was fine also. Me, I'm still affected by it today. Later one day, I was equally horrified for my brothers, the day that I saw them in the shop, racing their Hotwheels cars up and down the passenger fender of his 1911. 😂

    A few corrections: The Model T did not have a 2.9 liter engine. The Model T engine is 177 cubic inches. The engine produced 20 horsepower, not 22. The Dodge Brothers designed and built the complete Model T drivetrain, and most of the rest of the car. The Dodge Brothers quit when henry would not pay them. The Model T was not built at Walkerville, it was assembled there, from sub-assemblies that were built at other factories. The underseat fuel tank did not have any liters in it, the capacity is 10 gallons. The Model T did not get any l per km, it was advertised at 13 to 21 miles per gallon. Before the Model T the average person had the freedom to go anywhere they wanted on a horse. The electric car was introduced before the Model T. The Model T was created by Childe Harold Wills, Joseph A. Galamb, Eugene Farkas, Henry Love, C. J. Smith, Gus Degner, Peter E. Martin, and the Dodge Brothers. The Landaulet is the rarest Model T, only 300 were produced, the featured car is a touring body, 6,856,782 were produced.

    Another fact: Dodge Bros passed on in 1920. Their estate ran the company for about seven years before Walter Chrysler bought it and Dodge became a Chrysler division.

    1912's absolutely had front doors...get your facts straight. They were know as fore doors and the front doors could be removed. Many 1912's today sadly are missing their front doors however as people back in the day took them off and the doors and cars got separated. 1911 was the last year tourings did not have front doors. You couldn't have listened to the dialogue very well...the body is a 1913 as they stated. 1914 doors were much different and did not extended to the splash aprons.

    @@johnheaman OK I see that you are correct. I certainly am not an expert, I just own one but it isn't a 1913. You are also right I probably didn't listen to the dialogue that closely but I learned something anyway. I drive mine frequently when the weather is good and people like it. The T is the first antique car I got and it is the one I like best probably. There really aren't that many old cars on the road doing what they are supposed to be doing, that is driving around.

    Actually the Steam Powered Cars came first, and the Electric was Introduced around the 1859. Steam was complicated and tended to sometimes Explode. Electric was Overpriced, had a Lower Top Speed, and a short range. On top of that the Electric cars were marketed towards Women, something they could drive to go pick up the groceries back then when everyone was strictly Patriarchal. So the Popular Vehicles were internal combustion and we've just stuck with the gas powered cars since. NOW that we have the PUSH to develop the EVs, they are coming along and are more viable now. 2023 Mustang Mach-E Performance GT package gets something like a 270 mile range, boasts 480 Horsepower, and a 10 minute charge will take you about 60-65 miles, 0-60 in 3.8 seconds. Full overnight charge is like 12 hours though.

    It's so hard to say. There are a lot of variables that can bring value to a vehicle like this. It's not in mint condition by any means, but the entire history of the vehicle can be tracked. Some would say it's priceless, but in all honesty, we don't know what it would be valued at. The owner has never looked into it either. Thanks for the question. Sorry we couldn't give a better answer.

    Thanks for watching! We once heard a speaker at an automotive conference talk on the EV car. He should a picture of down town New York in the very early 1900’s and the majority mode or travel was horse and carriage. He showed another just a few years later and not a horse in sight. It was all cars. He said that the EV future. It will come fast so be ready. We aren’t sure if that’s the way it’s going, but if it is, we hope it’s sustainable in the long run for everyone.
