Where can you find new Model T parts?
Hello. Let's say you need to repair your Model T. Let's say the radiator has sprung a leak or the wheel bearings need to be replaced. Where can you find such parts? Which websites do you recommend you find any new parts for the Model T? Do they still make Model T parts? Thank you

1917-25 Ford with colors?
Hello again. I have one question. Are there any Model Ts built between 1917-1925 that have a colored paint scheme other than black? Or were all Ts built during those years all black?

Any info on the very first Model T?
Hello again. I'm quite curious about the first Ford Model T that was ever made. I believe it was made in 1908. What I'd like to know is that who bought the very first Model T? Also, does anybody know what happened to that first T? Is it still around to this day or was it scrapped sometime before? Th...

How Many Ts used in the decades since production ended
Hello again. I have one question about the number of Model Ts over the many decades since the end of production. How many Model Ts were used in the decades since the end of production in 1927? How many Ts were around in the 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, and so forth? Looking online, I found out that in 2008, ...

Re: What did you do to your T, January 1, 2100
I agree with HPetrino. Let us look back to the 1940s when World War 2 was still raging across much of the world. Compare WW2 era vehicles with vehicles of today and see how much they have changed. A lot has changed since the 40s and a lot will change in the decades to come.

Alternate History Question 2: Modern Model T
Hello again. The Ford Model T's design is almost an icon for vintage and veteran cars. When most people think of really old cars, they usually think of the Model T or a car similar to it. What if, though, the Model T was remade in the modern age? How would it look like? Would it be as widely used as...

Alternate History Question: No Model T?
Hello, Randy again. Henry Ford created the Ford Model T for the average person to have a decent form of transport, rather than suffering in the hands of mother nature. Up until the early 20th century, only the upper class had a motor vehicle. The Model T was introduced in 1908 (under the 1909 model ...

Re: Old Photo Model T pulls a threshing machine More photos
It kinda reminds me of a Model T tow truck. The only exception is that the car in the picture is a coupe while the Model T tow truck I saw in pictures and videos had a runabout body with a pickup flatbed and a tow boom and crane attached to the flatbed.

Bat or Mag start?
Would it be better to start the Model T with the key (or switch if 1916 model year or earlier)? Or would it be better to start the car with the key/switch on magneto?

Hello again, it's me Randy. I am 14 years old and in the future, I want to buy a Ford Model T. The ideal Model T I want is a 1919-1925 touring car because not only does it have the electric starter, but it has more room than the coupe and the runabout. How much does the average 1919-25 tourer cost? ...

World War 1 Model Ts
Hello everyone, it's Randy. The Ford Model T was built throughout the late 1900s, the entire 1910s, and much of the 1920s decade. This means that there were Ts built during the First World War. Were there any Model Ts used during WW1? If so, what were they used for? Were they used as supply trucks, ...

Hello guys! Randy here. A fellow Model T Ford enthusiast. I have watched many tutorials on how to drive the Model T and how to switch gears. I know that to drive off in low gear, you must push in the clutch all the way in and adjust the throttle for speed. To switch to high gear, push the hand brake...
