My 1910 project
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!

Re: My 1910 project
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.

Re: My 1910 project
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.
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"

Give an old car guy a barn and he won't throw anything away.
