Last night, Mississippi ETV aired a program called "Mississippi Roads".
The Magnolia Model T club was filmed, and I was in this video. Go watch it, A nice video
The trick is going to be figuring out which of these old men I am! :lol:

Really enjoyed that. Thanks for sharing. I count myself lucky to have some friends close by that love to drive T's as well. The friendships get stronger and the stories get longer, each time we go on a new adventure. Nice to see faces of some of the names I have been reading about over the years.

When I clicked on the link to the video and saw that it was 26 minutes long, I figured I'd watch the part about Model T's then shut it off. I watched the whole thing and it was fun. My favorite quote is from a Magnolia State Model T guy: "You can be silly in a Model T." :lol:

Makes me want to leave New Jersey and move to Mississippi.
Do you allow Yankees in your club?
LOL
Great video and a great group of guys.
Keep on T-ing!

Lookin good Craig! I thought for a moment you acquired a nice lookin red torpedo with the Livingston radiator! Didn’t see any of your cars in the video... maybe that was you riding the motorcycle in the back...?

No, none of my cars, or motorcycles were in the video. The situation was, one of my good friends had underwent a major operation, and badly wanted to go on the drive. But the docs forbade him from driving. So I drove my ‘39 Ford pickup down to his house, and I piloted is 1911 Torpedo, and he rode shotgun.
And yes Yankees with T’s are always welcome here. One of the best model T roads in the country is the Natchez Trace parkway. 440 miles of road, from Natchez MS, to Nashville TN. No trucks, no stop lights, (no gas, no restaurants, you have to get off to find those) plenty of places to pull off, with historic markers and rest rooms. The only real hazards are giant RV’s and spandex pants bicyclists. 🤣

Loved the Model T portion of the video ! Many thanks for posting it. I was reminded of the time that Kirk and Randy drove the latter’s 1913 touring in a NY City to left coast tour. They were flying the MS flag ( partially Stars and Bars ) And became lost in NYC and ended up driving thru Harlem. 😂😂... ‘nuff said
