    One of the really amazing things about those old Model Ts is that when disassembled, they will fit through a standard doorway. My father told me about pranking a fellow student in college when he left for Christmas break and a few kf the students who stayed behind took his Model T apart and reassembled inside his dorm room😂

    For Work I am in Denmark and they had some WW2 re enactment here, The Americans had a deuce and a half (i think that's what those trucks were called) and they had at least one Model T and 2 Model A Fords. Watching MOSG now I know which one is what. We learned that Henry Ford just called them by letters and I could never figure out why T was before A. Thanks to Merlin I now know they went thru the alphabet twice :) Glad to see you getting more of them old Fords and getting them ready to run.

    It seems that some people did what ever they could to save those old Fords and the old monoliths have went from one caring enthusiast to another. The old model A's and T's not only transformed the transportation Industry, but established it. It seems that Merlin's heart and soul was drawn to carry on, and bring a few back to life, when he inherited those new parts to be able to keep these precious entities of America's history intact.

That have been sitting in a old steel storage container that my dad had gathered as a truckdriver crossing the country for years up until the late 80s some are almost S shaped wrenches amongst almost every tool that a person would need to cross the country with on there car. They are really neet. They sure made things to last. Cool video and neet finds.

Growing up during the depression you did what you had to do to keep them running. Growing up in MN he said they would heat a pot of water on the stove and wrap it in blankets and put it in the back seat. When they got to town they would drain the water out of the radiatort and when they were ready to go back to the farm they dumped the warm water in the radiator and away they would go. He also talked about building a fire under the pan to warm the oil.

We realized with one trip, we could save over a thousand miles. 2,700 miles to LA. From there to Main was about 3,200 and back to Miami, just another 1,700, so the loop it was! Yes 1,200 miles of treacherous American traffic averted. It was a good month! And an awesome vacation! About 8 thousand miles of "HEY, wouldya' just look at THAT!
