Check out this book I produced that was written by an Australian owner of a huge number of antique cars including several model T's and features stories about them actually being used and some pictures too (Chapter 6, Chapters 28 to 30 and pages 24, 136, 104, 144, 154, 156)! http://abcgi.fly.to/justonelifetime 6.

LGB `---' Model T Runabout `---' pic (1926 Model T Runabout) The Model T began as one of the first affordable motor cars in the US ($360 US in 1913) and had a 20 horse power engine. The car was always painted black. Model T production in the US ran from 1908 to 1927 and more than 15 million were made. Henry Ford, who invented the Model T in 1908, founded the Ford Motor Company in 1903 that helped to revolutionise working conditions, factory efficiency and automobile prices in the US. In 1913, the moving assembly line was first used in the automotive industry by Ford in Michigan, USA, and workers were paid $5 US a day (double the standard wage of the times). -- ABCGi - Atomic ______________________ <===> Bacterial Genetic |---------------------|| Chemical Infantrymen <=========== http://abcgi.fly.to =-+-=> |---------------------|'
