My 1910 project

Post by Bill Elliott » Tue Sep 14, 2021 7:37 am

I know some of you may have seen my 1910 touring project at the OCF, but I wanted to share some photos on the forum because so many of you have been instrumental in helping me get it finished. It's been a four year journey with plenty of up's and downs, but I was determined to get her ready in time for the OCF even if I had to push it to Dearborn! Being a spectator, after having a car there, is not as much fun. I still have plenty to do this autumn/winter, but I have a whole year in which to do it before the next Old Car Festival! BTW, I think you'll agree with me when I tell you her new name - Murphy. As in Murphy's law. She certainly earned it, and not just because of the run away where!

Thanks Allen, I appreciate the kind words. Engine number is 15851, February 4 of 1910 I believe.

Spectacular car... I tried "auto correct" once, back when I got my first computer. I entered the word "oleo". The idiotic auto correct replaced it with "Ohio". I've never used it since.

Now THAT is one extra nice T. My hat is off to you Bill for a job well done. The color needs some direct sun to make it show better but I like it.

In the first picture I get a strange feeling like maybe you should check that rear wheel. I just can't put my finger on it but feel something is missing......Call it ESP or something. :lol: Glad it didn't cause anyone to get hurt or damage the car. Now I know what to say when things go wrong with mine, "Its just part of the show" :oops:
Give an old car guy a barn and he won't throw anything away.
