My 1910 Touring
I have terminated the pending sale of my 1910. The buyer took too long to come here to pick it up and settle. So I am going to keep it after now 79 years and as long as I have two feet of solid earth it will be in our garage. I bought it when I was 14 and I will be 94 on June 21 this coming year. That will be my 80th year with my beloved T. I will have an open house on that day and the T will be all shined up and on display.

Re: My 1910 Touring
Sounds as though the car is staying where it belongs Darel.
I hope you have many more enjoyable trips with it.

Re: My 1910 Touring
I am very glad you are keeping the car. Very few people in the model t community can say they've owned a single car has long as you have.
Just a 20 year old who listens to 40 year old music, works on 75 year old airplanes and drives 100 year old cars.
The past is only simple because hindsight is 20/20.

Re: My 1910 Touring
Darel's car is not from Nebraska.
From the factory, it was originally delivered to the C. S. Adams Automobile dealership in Elgin, Ill.
By the mid-1930s, it had made its way to Minneapolis and was owned by the Minneapolis Pure Oil Company.
In September 1946, Darel purchased it from the Minneapolis Pure Oil Company - he was fourteen years old at the time.
