A neat Model T video

Post by Mopar_man » Sat Mar 23, 2024 9:11 pm

This was a neat video. 2 guys in a 1915 driving around learning and driving at the same time.

I've seen that video, it came up in my feed (on a Model T channel? Surely not!!), very well put together, and very amusing too :lol:

Good morning Mopar Man... That video was really a history lesson in that the way people viewed and used the Model. T in the early days and how we view and use the Model T. In today's acceptance society..... Going from point A to point B has been going on since the Stone age but the Model T enjoyment is special.

I wonder why they would use the highest grade premium gas in it? And also why they didn't fill all the way up? Also wonder why they put it into neutral when going so fast before they stopped? Also why they slowed down to shift from Ruckstell to direct drive?
Also, when I am at a stop for very long such as a signal, I pull the parking lever into neutral to save both my leg and the low band. And also when I reverse I pull the lever into neutral. Then I can use the left leg for reverse and the right for the brake. Other than those few things, I think they did a very good job.

My T ran best on 98 octane... it was so low compression it shouldn't have made squat for difference,,, but it did. You do what your car asks for, and be glad it still runs.

Anytime I get frustrated, discouraged and want to get rid of my T, these videos are a pick me up! I like how they are having fun, learning and have a genuine respect for these cars. I sure hope they make more videos!
