1915 Ford Model T Brass Era Antique Automobile Experience
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 мар 2016
- Lets take an automobile ride and tour of this vintage 1915 Ford Model T Roadster, courtesy of my friend Duncan. The brass 1915 Ford Model T just celebrated its 100 year anniversary. I helped him sell this car. It is one of the most correct examples you will find anywhere. The Brass Era of automobiles is considered from 1896 until 1915. Ford produced over 15 million Model Ts, eventually moving on to the advanced Model A

I'm a die hard Chevy man and can't pass up seeing vids like this about any breed of vehicle. Just awesome to see these old cars still around and cared for over a hundred years later.
Agree!
Beautiful Model T. The most racy looking model. So nicely restored and running like a top. The speed of the car just reflects the slower more peaceful life of the period. Now I feel like on the Autobahn on today's highways!
Thanks for the wonderful comment Joseph. I love Ts and As. Really appreciate you following the Samspace81 classic car channel - SAM
@@samspace81 Your welcome Sam. I so miss "real" car shows in the 1970's-'80's that had rows of these brass era cars and finished at the early '60's. I used to spend most of my time looking at the early cars. So much more interesting. Now the average show doesn't even have one pre-1955 car! I see one more hopped-up new Mustang or Camaro I'll scream! LOL I honestly don't even go to them anymore for that reason.
Nice to own such a beautiful old car. I really love such cars made in the time when cars were a really new invention.
Same here! Couldn't agree more
'The only thing wrong with the Model T is we can't make enough of 'em'. Henry Ford
huguenot67
how bout this-" you can have the Model T in any color you like - as long as that color...
IS BLACK!
@@scottprendergast2680 Thats a corruption, he never actually said that... In fact he was a very good business man and was open to any marketing options that would attract more buyers including different paint colors, and this is proven by the fact that all Fords after the Model T were available in multiple color schemes besides black.
@@sergeantbigmac Not sure where you got this information but Henry Ford was actually an asshole, seriously. He almost ran the Ford motor company into the ground because he refused to upgrade the Model T. While all the other manufactures were building bigger and faster cars he was so stuck on the model T that he didn't want to build anything eles. He had the mentality that if it wasn't broke then you don't fix it, he failed to realize every other manufacturer was upgrading. It was only after his hand was forced that he gave in and started building other things.

@@bruceglover7971 Just a millionaire, sadly. Why?
This car is 105 years old,
Incredible when thinking about it. Appreciate you following the Samspace81 channel, great comment

This is a very beautiful Piece Of History
Thanks so much for checking it out Enrico
2:56 The minivan was like: YASSSS. FINALLY!! SOMETHING NOT FASTER THAN ME!!!
Thats funny, yeah it was like a Corvette ZO6 and a donkey. Thanks for watching & commenting here on the Samspace81 classic car channel - SAM
You know when a car is well-made if it's 101 years old and still running.
Many cars survive because they broke down and sat in a garage or barn for decades.
Marvin the Maniac FORD R BEST
if i got 100 year old car i would keep it or sell for alot of money cuz that thing is value
@@bakedpotato8218 built Ford tough!
@@brawl1488 unless you really needed money, selling it isn't a good idea.
Charming car! Thanks for the ride! I was lucky trying an A Model once.
Wonderful, I love pre-war cars. Thanks so much for your comments & continued viewership on the Samspace81 classic car channel, Rogers Car Videos :) - SAM
My Grandfather was not allowed to drive the family Model T until he learned to fix almost everything that might go wrong. He finally learned to drive when his family was packed into the car on the way home from visiting ancestors in the coal-fields of PA. Everybody except he was too car-sick to drive. So, at age 14, he carefully negotiated the frightening mountain roads of PA, in the dark, with the dim kerosene lanterns that Ford called "headlights".
Some years later, he bought his own used "Model A" for $75 (people were desperate for money in 1933) , and immediately bet a friend that he could drive from Niagara Falls to Buffalo without allowing any other vehicle between them. He did it, won the bet, but was also caught in Buffalo & had his license revoked for "reckless driving" !!
My mother told me that grandpa allowed her to drive his car only when she had bought new clutch and replaced it with her own hands. Somtime later she had to polish outworn crankshaft with abrasive paper and micrometer but something gone wrong and the car was forgotten for fifteen years near the garden wall till next repair and ride.
Please keep the a and the t
Hi
That so Kool
Thats great, really appreciate you sharing that memory and knowledge Max. _ SAM
1:29 old opening door sound,love it 🔥
Thanks so much, I just love these old cars.
Thank you Gentlemen for sharing this Ford Mode T work of automobile history, fantastic rebuild...😉
Absolutely my pleasure! I appreciate it, had a really good time working with this car, I love Model Ts, best one I've worked with so far :)
Esses inventores maravilhosos e suas máquinas inovadoras!
Pura RELÍQUIA da história do automóvel! Belo vídeo.
Thanks so much for the kind words & your viewership
Ford: doesnt die after 100+ years
My 10 year old toyota: needs a jumper cable to start 100% of the time
Thats funny. Don't kid yourself, this Model T has been a chore to maintain lol
i doubt that cause its a toyota... maybe your driving a mitubishi
Also true 👍
Wonder why that it. My 23 yo sure doesn't.
I love this 1915 Ford; I really do! It was current when my Dad was born (May '15). His all-time favorite Ford was the '57 Ford Fairlane 500 coupe which was current when I was born (May '57) and bought one in 1960 when it was still 'new enough' but the cost was way down. Anyhow, the differences seem greater than 42 years, yet that IS the age difference. I think the '57 is a beautiful space age, jet age car, but doesn't have that antique charm Fords had up to the mid 1930's. Today the cars are just transportation appliances, and best appreciated for their reliability and safety.
I agree, I especially love 32-36 Fords. Thanks so much Bob for the sentimental comment. I was raised by my grandfather (Feb '18) and he always spoke of driving Model As. I think of him everytime I see a T or an A. Appreciate you watching my channel - SAM
Fantastic! A priceless jewel!
Really is a museum piece. Thanks for checking it out Felipe.
That is a nice looking vehicle and the owner must love it so much. I would not want to sell it, but keep it for it's value, and beauty.
I did sell this one, Duncan is a really good man. He also had a beautiful 35 Ford I sold for him. The guy that bought this T was a true enthusiast, him and his children.
That is great that they love the vehicle so much.
Thanks for maintaining well,, antiques are more than gold
Thanks so much Ravi, really appreciate your kind comment & viewership - SAM
C P B petals, Clutch Park Brake, classic touch. I Love it...
Me too Eric, takes some getting use to. Really appreciate you watching & commenting - SAM
"Clutch", Reverse, Brake.
@@samspace81 i need 2 borrow it for a few years or indefinitely 😆, ill keep the maintenance up...
What a beauty.
Loved that one
Imagine driving, and you see this in your lane..
Just don't hit me LOL
That is one Neat piece of history!
+Military Chevy I love Model Ts. You don't see many of them anymore. Thanks for checking it out!
Stunning ingenious simplifecy !
Couldn't agree more! Thanks Knut-Hinrichq Walter
Sweet, my Grandpa ran Moonshine in aModel T in the Georgia Mts 1920s
Awesome! Different times for sure.
They can actually run on Moonshine.
Yup , the good stuff ;)
I found and was going through my grandpa's 1942 Senior yearbook recently and his best friend's description was "drives a dilapidated model T.....loves tinkering around.....very popular among other fellow's dates..." 😂
Thats awesome, enjoyed your comments. I love pre-war cars too. They make me think of my grandfather! He raised me. Appreciate you watching & commenting
My dad was born in 1915. In 1927 his family drove to Michigan from Kentucky in a model T. Beautiful car by the way.
Thats wonderful, really appreciate you sharing that story, quite a voyage. Thanks for watching & subscribing - SAM
Model T's definitely are a unique driving experience. Great job Sam!
+RamblinAround Thanks RamblinAround ! I'm really happy with my new video camera, now I need to learn how to utilize it :) I appreciate that!!
I'm still using that same camera Jeff, what a workhorse its been
Very nice😄
If you want to be impressed even more pick up a engine re build manual for one of these, you had to pour the lead babbit in the bearing shells , then scrape them to size, still better than keeping a horse for most. nice video .
Great stuff, really appreciate your kind comment & knowledge. Thanks so much for your viewership on the Samspace81 classic car channel.
And much better for the horse, too.
Great video and can we just appreciate the dedication for a sec: still responding and hearting comments after 4 years. That is dedication and commitment.
Wow thanks Shadow Boom, you're the only person I can recall commenting on that. My relationship with my viewers is whats built up my RUclips channel. I'm humble and proud to bring this content to everyone. I appreciate the thoughtful comment and will keep moving forward. I love being a RUclipsr with these old cars. I'm full time with it now along with classic auto pre-purchase inspection services - SAM
Notice the driver had to get in on the passenger side. That's because there was no door on the driver's side! Nor was the seat adjustable. If you were too short or too tall, well, tough luck.
They made wooden blocks for short people.
Yes, great observation, enjoying your comments - SAM
Nice very nice
Thanks so much, appreciate you watching - SAM
One of my dream cars to own! This one is stunning! Nice video.
Same here
Thanks so much to you both! I hope you subscribe and stick around - SAM
We had a 1956 Jeep that had one windshield wiper with a small electric motor for the driver. The motor was mounted above the windshield on the inside and you turned it on by pulling on a little metal tab. On the passenger side was a hand-operated wiper like the one that this car has.
Sounds like fun, thanks for the comment Hebneh
The most iconic car in the world!

@@samspace81 : Yeessss!

Thank you Debbie, enjoyed it very much. I love the geraniums that you have in the row where you were seated.
Enjoying your comments
The horn sounds reminds me of early 1900s in some movies i watched.
Ha, love that sound. Thanks for watching, Dave
That’s exactly what era it’s from
submarines.
Oh Id love to have an original Model T like that, Id drive it to town everyday.
I love it too, if people would give you room on the road
Nothing is more awesome then the model T always wanted to drive one been an dream since I was an kid I hope to own one in the future please post more videos
I love them too. Appreciate your comment. I do nothing but post videos, need to do more Ts. Thanks so much
Krásná Líza,gratuluji!

@@matrox Great!
Thanks.Great Automobile and Video.
Thank you Jay! Glad you enjoyed it. I love Model T's too! Enjoy the channel. I don't get to work with many of them, especially this nice and correct.
Hello Sam. Looks like l've found another of your "oldies" from your archive. That "T" was immaculate and that paintwork was good old fashioned cellulose and didn't it look superb. I drove one about 40 years back . Had to drive it about 10miles on a very busy main road . I was given a very quick brief and that was it ! Somehow l made it without any mishaps ! l'm sure l'll see you shortly with your latest presentation . Cheers !
Many thanks! This was a memorable car. I marketed & sold it for this gentlelman along with dozens of Model T & A parts. - SAM
Wow, it's seems spectacular!
Appreciate you watching & commenting, Lobster
Quel plaisir de voir rouler nos ancêtres automobiles. Très belle restauration, félicitations ! Bonjour de la France (l'autre pays de l'automobile) 🤗

Amazing car. Just love it👍
It really is!
Those things are pretty badass, I remember one beautiful Saturday, as my family and I was getting home from Saturdays Market, one of those bad boys passed by us.
Chitty Chitty bang bang MFers! bwhaha glad you enjoyed it Seth. Enjoy the Samspace81 channel
Ooh, I love watching Chitty Chitty Bang Bang!
👌 the first and the best mass production of FORD
I agree! Thanks so much for your comment & viewership, love Model T Fords - SAM
Simplicity & innovation back in the day :-)
Absolutely, appreciate you watching Allen
@@samspace81 Oh, by the way, I forgot to say thanks so much for uploading; looking forward for future uploads :-)
That is absolutely appreciated too Allen. I'm going to hammer out some serious content all week. SAM
its so cool to see a 100 year old car drive!
We think alike! Thanks for watching
Beautiful piece of history
Absolutely agree! Thanks so much for watching
A treasure of the mecanical history !!! ♥️♥️♥️ Great people !!!...👏👏👏🏁🏁🏁...
Absoutely agree. Really appreciate you watching & commenting - SAM
I like the ones with the silver metals rather than the brass. And I prefer the 20's models, something about the styling is appealing.
I can dig that too, thanks Rex
Wow!!!! How neat!!!
Right?! Was so much fun to ride in it
these cars never quit working i swear it i wish they still made cars like this!, to boot they are a show stopper a heart singer a time machine and a extreme distraction for the fellow jaw dropping motorist, id love to ride or possibly even own a model T or A or any car before the 80s but this THIS would be the jewel on my crown which honestly would probably make my heart flutter and make me cry of joy for a soild 3 hours just about damn ready to let my soul leap out and give Jesus a big ol bear hug. but for now ive got a 2002 GMC sonoma and a whole shit-ton of clocks going as far back as 1882. i do have a few car parts just in case if i end up owning a barn fresh and untouched 40s ford which happens to be missing an oil bath air filter, as far as in an engine standpoint ive got a iron horse engine from 1937 and i love it to bits . it just needs a gas tank and some more flywheel weight and a new grounding capacitor . i will see if i can get the value and use a reclaimed radio capacitor [i have the engine on two separate videos running on the bottle] :)
Great sentiment, catching up on comments. I appreciate you taking the time to type this - SAM
Absolutely love it :) I've always wanted a brass era Model T... But for now my 1925 Model T touring will have to do :)
+Mitch Taylor (PremiereDirector) I love the Touring model. Thank you for checking out the T, I don't work with many of them.
Good luck. It from year 1915 but it new I'm happy for see this car
I'm glad you enjoyed it Root Root! I just got to film a 1913 Buick, you'll like that one too. Thanks for watching Samspace81
Congratulations Duncan.
I'm a great fan from FORD Model T and Ford motor Company.
I Have a Ford. Ford Fiesta 2003.

Appreciate you watching 👀
A Ford fez histórias boas aqui no Brasil...
Pena que está indo embora do País!
Quando pesa mais no bolso de alguém, a "melhor" decisão é sair. Imagine se os conumidores brasileiros decidissem boicotar carros pelo seu preço abusivo a alguns anos atrás. Daria na mesma, não é?
Thank you both for watching & commenting
My dad was born in 1915. At his celebration of life, his older sister recalled the first time he saw a Model T down on the farm in North Dakota. He must have been three or four. He ran around shrieking “hullu tuli” or “crazy fire” in Finnish. (Didn’t learn English until he went to school, as is often the case in immigrant communities.)
Thanks for making a piece of family history real for me. Feeling a little choked up about it.
Lil said grandpa and grandma worked on the team building the first paved roads in Montrail County, ND after they returned from their ill fated attempt to homestead in Manitoba. Grandma in the cook wagon and grandpa driving the mules that were scraping the land to even it out for the road bed. She also said grandpa wasn’t so good at it because he refused to beat the mules. He got teased about that.
History.
Special memories, this really made my day. I'm catching up on comments. Thank you SO MUCH for your kind words, memories shared and viewership on the Samspace81 classic car channel - SAM

“Light, heat, and power - think what has been accomplished by this one idea put into action! And the power age has barely begun. In our own shops we are constantly improving our method of manufacture, with an eye to efficiency, economy, and the safety and comfort of our employees. Belt transmission has been entirely supplanted by electrically driven machines, which frees us from the danger and annoyance of wheels and belts whirling overhead. Our furnaces, most of which are electrically heated, are so constructed and insulated that the men work in front of them without discomfort.” (Henry Ford, My Philosophy of Industry, 1928, p. 59)
Appreciate you watching
nice sound engine, look very good condition
It is! Thanks for the great comment Andrei
