My grandfather told the story of crossing the Mississippi river on a ferry and have a man drive off in his T to have the car stall half way up the hill. He rolled back to the landing, restarted the engine and made a second try, also stalling half way up the hill. For try number three someone told hi...

My grandfather once told me about him running his moms Model T off the road and down a barbed wire fence, out in west Oklahoma. This would be in 1926-1928. Cars can last forever if you can get parts and don't wreck them.

Not a Ford, but dad says the family 1928 Dodge had over 300,000 miles on it when they sold it still running for $35 circa 1953, only rebuilt the engine once he recalls, says those were good engines. Besides being the family car it was later the service vehicle for the family auto repair shop.
