Wayne,,,,,,, Wasn't that you riding in the front passenger seat of the last model "T" they showed riding down the road with the complete family in the back seat? I stopped the film and zoomed in and I would swear that was you. I knew you was old but .....WOW... lol .......... just curious my bro. (ping, been a while and I needed to do that to stay in practice)
Great Video .....
I am so very proud to be a tiny, worthless, grain of sand in an ocean of Veteran heros.
God bless our vets......

No Seajay, it wasn't me. If it had of been me, I would have just held up my hands and parted the water when they came across the river bed.
And for the rest of you, I know I'm older than dirt!!!!

Yup, really remember seeing restored Model T's. I remember there was one model that you had to go in reverse (back up) to get up a steep grade. Ah, childhood memories.....

Thanks Wayne ! .......... I never realized they hand sanded the spokes after assembly. That might account for the slight wobble I feel when cruzin along between 12 and 14 MPH.

Thanks Wayne,
Being older than dirt, beats not being older than dirt. At least our aches and pains remind us that we are alive.
