My youngest son ask to drive my 1949 Plymouth this afternoon and asked, Dad is this the car that the ignition switch turns both ways to start the car? No son, Thats the Model T, The 49 starts like your car. A couple of months ago my other son went to drive my 41 Olds and came back in the kitchen and said that battery was dead. He had forgot on the Olds you have to push the starter pedal. I have a feeling I just got too many cars.

If you really, REALLY want to go nuts, try steam.

I had steam.......a 1907 60 HP Case engine.
I got steam out of my system when I was married to the darn thing at the local show and I had other toys I wanted to play with too.
Still love steam......just don't want to own it.
As for cars......I have the '19 Touring T, '25 Dodge Business Sedan, '27 Tudor T, '29 Tudor Model A, '59 Chev and a '65 Mustang Coupe.
That's too many cars.......hasta la vista Model A.
