Ford Model T bus in Slovenia

- Опубликовано: 5 ноя 2009
- A 1921 Ford Model T bus has been turning heads in Slovenia's capital, Ljubljana. Owned by Jure Mrzel, the bus is based on a two-seat Model T truck chassis.
Jure decided to convert the old-timer into a bus after studying historical material and talking to fellow Model T fanatics. He teamed up with wood technician Janez Smelcer for the project.
The two men also fitted the vehicle with a wood gas generator, or gasifier. Popular in the 1930s when fuel was in short supply, the gasifier burns wood to create a gas which powers the engine. The engine can also be powered by petrol.
While speeds are far from high top speed is just 20km/h when powered by the gasifier - driving the Model T is a precise art.
However, Jure enjoys the challenge as he proudly drives his bus around the streets of Ljubljana

Wow , Gas operated ?
Ford should make old classic cars again !
Looks much better than modern cars !
You can buy a model T for around $10,000. Ford couldn't make them for that price.
A Canadian company tried making new model A fords. They didn't sell very many and went bankrupt.
If you want a classic Ford you can buy one. There are plenty of them for sale.
Modern Mustangs' Camaros and Chargers look much better than a model T.
I just saw this video for fist time. As far as I know for both Model T and A all parts are still being made in the US. Which means you could build a new car from parts.
@@alshotrodsandratrods8780 That's definitely one personal opinion. Mine is that all of those cars you listed that aren't the T are utterly hideous and have obnoxious interiors. To each his own indeed!
@@telocity You could restore one with new parts but a new body would have to be built to order and would be very expensive. Brookville Roadsters is the only company that makes new bodies. There are no companies that cast antique engines
@@Samson1 The personal opinion of an idiot is worthless if you don't like classic cars. I have met people with that opinion at car shows and they are all over 80 years old and senile.
