The second video, of an HCCA tour in Oregon, is also available for viewing on the Horseless Carriage Club web site, along with several videos demonstrating individual brass era cars. Go to hcca.org, click on EDUCATION, click on HCCA Presents. The last offering on this list is the Oregon video. There are demonstrations of an 1906 Buick, a Stanley Mountain Wagon, an E-M-F, a Mitchell, and a 1915 motorcycle. They were made last February at the HCCA convention and tour in Mt. Dora, Florida. Full disclosure: My ugly aged puss will appear demonstrating the '06 Buick. I have since sold that car.

Neat stuff, Bob.
Luke Rizzuto's Chevrolet didn't make the Great Race that year, because it was canceled. Maybe he'll get another chance....

Can you spot the mistake in the commentary?

They did a lot of talk about the brakes.
Nope. That's not it. :-D
20 model years. It was actually 19 model years.
Norm
Well, that's correct of course, but not what I was looking for. :-)
I'd guess it was the comment about the T being the first car that was assembled on an assembly line. If I'm not mistaken, there was at least one other car that was assembled that way before the T, although I'm not sure which one(s). Curved dash Olds? Dave
I was thinking about his comment on how the crowned fenders were not produced until the last two model years, '26 and '27.
Actually, the crowned fenders came out in 1917.

Curve Dashed Olds were produced on an assembly line in 1901, but Henry Ford improved that assembly technique by making it a moving conveyor.

Oldest Ford in existence? I've seen a 1903 in the USA I wonder which motor number is the oldest?
Guess it's all in how you look at it. I've been told that the original Quadricycle still exists and is in the Henry Ford Museum. And there, the hair-splitting begins: Is the oldest Ford a Ford car or a Ford Motor Company production car?

Bob, we used to make them when I was in high school back in the sixties. All you have to do is take a felt hat, cowboy style or what ever you can find, and soak it in water for a while. I don't recall how long we soaked them, a couple of hours or so I think. When they have been soaked, stretch them over something that looks kind of like what you want the top of the hat to look like. I think we used a large pop bottle with some padding on the the top of it. Dave

Boy! That Stanley Steamer mountain wagon is really neat. It would be interesting to compare that one to the mountain wagon that Frank Harris is building. Speaking of that, how's that project coming along Frank? I suppose you've been too busy over at Son Bill's, helping him get acquainted with his new "T" touring, huh? That is, when you're not down in Mexico soaking up the sun!
Here's one you won't want to miss—a 10-minute movie called...
A narrator in 1945 looks back to 1900, when his parents were courting and Dad took Mom out in a 1900 Columbus Roadmaster. The narrator follows the family's fortunes on this block in Anytown , USA, as Dad and Mom marry, have two children, need a larger car, and drive a 1905 Holzman, a Stanley Steamer (bought after the neighbors get a 1910 Mitchell Touring car), a 1913 Model T, big brother's roadster (great for picking up flappers), the narrator's jalopy, and then, by 1935, a reliable sedan that mom drives. The changing automobile, which opened the world to folks in the first half of the twentieth century, is celebrated as part of birth, courtship, marriage, and business. (Synopsis written by J. Hailey)

How do you like the way he cranks that 1913?
I think the way he cranks that car is just great... as long as he's not using MY arm!
I've had my Model T only a couple of years and along that short way, I have, on occasion, been forgetful enough to attempt hand-starting the car without turning on the ignition, without closing the battery-disconnect switch and without opening the fuel valve. I've also forgotten to chock the real wheels before starting and more than once, I've forgotten to un-chock the rear wheels and attempted to drive off, wondering why the car wouldn't move and only catching on when people started laughing and pointing.
So don't anybody tell me you haven't forgotten at least one of those things at least once.
So far, I haven't forgotten to retard the spark, but that's only because I'm so profoundly afraid of that blankety-blank crank. Every time I go to touch it, my fear reminds me I'm about to play patty-cake with a Philippine Cobra. That innocent looking, cast-iron serpent hides its treacherous head in the leather thong, and yet I always hear his silent whisper, "Did you forget to retard the ssssssssssssssspark?"
Someday I'm going to get distracted and forget to retard the spark. Maybe it'll be because I'll be in a hurry to get somewhere or maybe I'll momentarily lose my mind at the car show because a pretty girl is watching. When that happens, it'll be a darn good thing I never learned how to crank the car with my right hand and how it's almost impossible to go past the top of the swing with my left hand.
"So far, I haven't forgotten to retard the spark"
If you get into the habit of retarding the spark before you switch off the ignition, there is a pretty good chance that it will still be retarded when you restart. That said, I do always glance at the spark lever prior to restart to confirm it's position, lest some "gawker" may moved it.
As with all things in life, do what works best for you. Bill

Thanks for the feedback, Mike.
Recuperating from spine surgery leaves me with time on my hands and this thread sort of became an accidental hobby. It drops to the bottom of the forum pile pretty quickly, though, so I rationalize it hasn't yet become an annoyance.
So far, my personal favorite is that luscious looking Locomobile (two posts ago). The engine compartment and interior are just jaw-droppingly gorgeous.
And what might your favorite be?
BOB, You have very good taste in big brass era cars. The locomobile was amazing. but my favorate would have to be the mercers. can you beleave going to a casusal car show and seeing all thease great cars in one place! Another favorate one was a HCCA tour in yakama WA. It shows a friend Pat Farrail(misspelled) and 1914 stanly steamer. I have had the pleasure of riding in this car and a few other Pat owns. As hobbiest go there are few nicer than this person. Hope you get well soon and thanks again for your video posts.

the implication is that the bridge shown is between San Rafael and San Francisco. It is NOT!.
The bridge shown is not in the San Francisco Bay area and I doubt if it is even in California.
I would like to know where it is though.
At the 2:23 point of the video clip, a road sign is visible which says,
"Richmond Bridge, Oakland." I know little of California geography, but according to Wikipedia, Oakland is near the San Raphael Bridge.
I thought the red, white and blue striped car looked very unfamiliar. Turns out it's a 1907 Spyker, manufactured in Amsterdam. I found a nice close-up of it on the web...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gUHXdTI4jKg
That is the San Rafael-Richmond brdge all right.
It goes from Richmond to San Rafael.
I thought I recognized the island on the right side of the picture.
The trouble is though, from where the camera is you get a distorted view of the turns on the bridge.
They look like almost 90 degree turns in the video but you can easily cross that bridge from one end to the other at 80 MPH. I've done it many times. Never noticed the turns before.
If you google the San Rafael Richmond Brdge you will see the turns are not very sharp as the video makes them look.
I'll pay more attention the next time I cross it.

Bob great videos as usual I live somewhat close to LaMays new museum and had a preview inside already, a must see! if ever in the area. In the past I met the late Harald LeMay several times in the past it was amazing to me how appoachable he was usually driving the shuttle bus on his once a year open house. The other pic of the blue pirece arrow brings back many memorys of the previous owner the late Bert Lobberett growing up and going on HCCA tours I remember Bert had some of the greatest cars and he loved giving rides. I remember the frount seat of the P-arrow well. I would say somewhat more pleasent than dads model A to say the least. anyway keep up the good work.
Mike, I didn't have the pleasure of meeting Harold LeMay, but all I've heard of the man agrees with what you said—a very approachable, regular guy with a self-effacing sense of humor.
You're lucky that you live in a part of the country that has a lot of brass car activity. There's very little of that in my neck of the woods. I like the big, powerful touring cars built between 1907 and 1912. That's only a five-year span, but, in my humble opinion, it was the cream of the brass-era crop.

1908 Cadillac, one cylinder. It weighs 10 pounds! lol

He probably meant the piston and rod.

Thanks Bob
Getting a bit slow to load now, though - perhaps time for a new thread?
Hi Roger,
The folks in charge of the website have been kind about allowing me to get away with posting a lot of non-Model T videos and space-consuming photos on a daily basis. With that in mind, I'm a little hesitant to start an additional off-topic thread for videos of all brands of brass cars.
On the other hand, if your computer is an oldie like mine...
... things do take a while to load and that's a pain in the neck, so I'll be happy to start a list of e-mail addresses to which I'll send the daily video links & photos, and of course, that'll be a lot quicker than waiting for the entire thread page to load. My e-mail is jugflyer@aol.com.
