My Brother has owned his 32 Ford 5 Window Deuce Coupe for 55 Years. He’s a Piker compared to this guy. #;^)
Only as an after-market addition along with the speedometer. I believe the only gauge that came stock on the T was a voltage meter. And those early odometers don't really mean much, since they could be reset at will and many only went to 4 digits.
"Ohio" was the Iroquois word for "beautiful river".
Thanks!
Sort of. In Canadian French, crapaud is a derogatory term for a French person (i.e., frog).
I wonder what clairvoyant basis for that claim is.
My late father who drove T models while in college in the late 1920 era said you had to go up steep hills in reverse due to the gravity feed fuel system. Since there was no fuel pump it was necessary to keep the gas tank higher than the carburetor to prevent fuel starvation.
Those old Fords could run off damn near anything combustable. Henry Ford himself was a great proponent of ethanol and in the 1920s, ethanol was already being mixed with gas.
would doubt that it would be worth much less if fully restored. As long as the parts are original, finished correctly, and consistent with the body style and year of production.

Thanks. It’s about what I was thinking. The car looks, and runs great. Just needs brakes as far as I know.
