No idea what make, model or year this is but couldn’t believe it was on the road and still running. Shot with cellphone.

Interesting shots of a great old car with a very self satisfied driver. Wonder if he had to use the crank to start it?

Ooh, I want it! BTW, right away I could tell you took these in the Pac NW area - it must be the trees and vegetation. I used to live in Oregon, now transplanted to the Midwest, where vegetation is a different green.

Not sure I would trust them "maypop" brand tires to go very far!

Looks like what's left of a 1920 Model T Touring. Those tires haven't seen treads in awhile!

No salt on the roads in the northwest, does wonders for old steel.

Ford used some of the best materials available. Vanadium was used plentifully. I suspect it is why so many old Fords exist. Some 700,000 out of 4.5 million Model As are still with us. The Model T', of which 19 million were built, abound.

I don't think the wife would have helped, besides no one is in the car with him, so he left her home. No crank -no starting fight!

I feel for you, the summers are hot and humid, the winters are cold and long, and every thing turns brown in the winter, when the snow doesn't fall.

ex Iowan from Cedar Rapids, I don't even go back for reunions if they are not held in Sept or Oct.

take a good photo of your cars, trucks, they will rust in a few years. I had to replace the muffler and the guy asked, " have you been driving on the ocean beaches"?
