1913 Model T Ford Speedster
In this video we talk to Bernard about his beautiful 1913 Model T Ford. It's street legal and if you are in southern California keep your eyes open, you might catch a glimps of this early "Ford Cobra".
First Drive in a 1923 Ford Model T
Just finished overhaul of engine and chassis, and started this Model T for the first time. Let her idle for 15 minutes to warm up and circulate the oil around the fabric band linings in the transmission.
Then off on the neighbor hood roads for a shake down run. Video is a bit shaky too, as its a Model T and one hand held the video camera while the other was on the steering wheel!
Fun in a two speed Model T with 20 hp !
Ford Model t speedster race car {ReBUILDING HISTORY the series}
From stock the modifications to this car start with the engine, where it has been fitted with a Ricardo aftermarket head, Bosch front plate distributor, counter balanced crank, aluminum pistons, and fitted with a period correct updraft carb, all together it pumps out around a whopping 30-40 hp.
The modifications to the frame include
-Lowering the car about 5 inches without dropping the front axle.
-Setting the engine and driver, back around 6 inches. This is done to change the look of the car as well as help with weight distribution.
-Also notice the period correct friction shocks on all four corners
As for the gearing ,the rear axle has been swapped out for an original Hall-Scott two speed axle that has been stuffed with 3 to 1 gears .
-Other than that I'm still running the original two speed transmission.
Setup as a race car it is not uncommon for model T's to hit speeds upwards of 65.

Tom's 1924 Model T Speedster
Ford 1924 Model T Speedster. Built by my buddy Tom Magee and his Grandfather many years ago, I had the pleasure of many rides and competed in an Endurance Run in the early 1980's in San Jose, CA. Tom still tinkers at his shop and got #42 running again after 25 years of collecting dust.

Update 10 Aug 2012:
My Model T has been fully restored, and I've just purchased a pair of carriage lights which the car was missing. Updated video to come.
Update:
"I MADE A MISTAKE!"
55psi only applies to clincher tyres on earlier Model T's. Since mine is a 1925 model and has split rims and balloon tyres, the correct tyre pressure is 35psi.

I imported my 1925 Ford Model T from the USA, not far from Detroit, Michigan where it was built.
In this video I demonstrate the T's unusual controls and how they all work, I show you how to start a Model T, and I take you on a short drive at the end.
The Model T was manufactured between 1908 and 1927, and was know by various names including Tin Lizzie, Flivver, T‑Model Ford, or just 'T'.
The Model T set 1908 as the historic year that the automobile became popular. It is generally regarded as the first affordable automobile, the car that opened travel to the common middle-class American; some of this was because of Ford's innovations, including assembly line production instead of individual hand crafting.
On May 26, 1927, Henry Ford watched the 15 millionth Model T Ford roll off the assembly line at his factory in Highland Park, Michigan.
