Model t vs. Model Y

I've been watching the SuperfastMatt channel for a while as he builds a landspeed car, convert's a '50s Jag to a Tesla drive train, and puts a motorcycle engine in a Honda S200. Today's video is comparing the Ford Model T to the Tesla Model Y. It's a fun 17m video folks here might find interesting. ...

Re: Vintage Cupholders?

I thought passengers were the factory original cup holders. Just like I was the OEM remote control for our Magnavox when I was growing up. :D

Re: Running board accessories

Thanks! Now that I have a name, I can find them everywhere. What's that phrase again? Knowing is half the something or other?

Running board accessories

There is a '14 Touring in the classifieds right now that has some accessories on the driver's side running board. The front item seems to be a carbide generator but the three canisters behind that are a mystery. I think I have seen them on a couple of cars with no mention to what they are. Are they ...

Period performance parts

One of the things that has really peaked my interest is the aftermarket performance modifications that existed back when these cars were being produced. The driving experience that we participated in last Fall included a Lang's catalog which includes some high compression heads which is cool to see ...

Re: New Member just saying "Hi!"

I appreciate the thought Erik but a T is at least a few years down the road. Yes, we need seating for three but I would love to get a speedster and fit it with period performance parts. Trying to learn what was available in the '20s is proving harder than it should be. Searching for "model T perform...

New Member just saying "Hi!"

Hello, We are new to the world of the Model T. My wife and I went to a Model T Driving Experience in Lincoln, NE this last Fall just on a lark. I mean, why not? When are we ever going to get a chance to drive one of these things again? Wow! We had a blast and I think we are hooked. We must be becaus...
