You will have to get old Dobbin to pull it to higher ground, or wait for the water to recede. Hopefully it will not get any higher.

Don't kill the engine no matter what. Hope he has a pair of waders in the back.

Thanks for posting that photo Tom. Haven't seen that one before.

And the luggage rack is mighty fine too!
When did I do that?

And he's got those new-fangled high-water tire chains on it too! Nice pic Tom! Thanks

And it’s still raining. Looks like he’s wearing a seafaring man’s wet weather gear. Good idea. The T can handle that much water, but if it gets high enough to touch the fan, the spray will likely short out the ignition. Any idea of where and when ? A remarkable body in the T. Is it custom ? What year is the T ?

Hello Rich:
Could be 11 or 12 Ford...my guess is 1912. Can't see a bump in the running board apron, but doesn't mean it's not there. If its a 12, the driver compartment threshold is wider to accommodate mounting of the dummy panel.
Regards,
Scott

Thanks Mario. If you happened to be in Richmond Indiana, stop by the MTFCA Museum and see it along with the Town Car exhibit that the good folks there put together.
Regards,
Scott

Hi Scott,

For sure I will stop some day to see that beauty. Very well done! You may have other treasure there too as well.
