Taking my 1911 Model T for a spin
I just returned from the Cookville Tour and my granddaughter's boyfriend made this video and posted it on YouTube. I wanted to take one last ride before I cleaned it up for Hershey.
Enjoy!

I still can't figure out how you can tour as much as you do and still keep that '11 in immaculate condition!

Re: Taking my 1911 Model T for a spin
Peter, great video and georgeous car. What is that small black box on the drivers side rear view mirror. Is it a switch for left or right blinkers? Courious Frank

Re: Taking my 1911 Model T for a spin
Frank, That is a switch for turn signals and flashing lights on the back. It is made for a bicycle and it is wire less. It is easy to take off when I go to a car show.

Wonderful!
That boyfriend did a marvelous job on the video, and the music too! Great scenes traveling off road.
See you in Hershey!

That was a great video. I watched it while eating my lunch, made for a good lunch stop. See you at Hershey next month.

Nice video, better if you mute the first four minutes though.

Pete- The boyfriend did a great job on the video. I gave him a Thumbs Up.
