Had the 1907 Ford roadster out yesterday in Minnetonka

Post by Rob » Mon Jun 06, 2022 7:36 am

I left early yesterday for Minneapolis, meeting Bruce V.S. in Minnetonka. Bruce rebuilt a Bosch magneto we are trying on the K. It ran great, but needed a break at the local DQ. Made it home about midnight, and hope to have the car out and about in Lincoln this coming weekend:

Rob, thanks for the video. You always choose great background music but I'd much rather hear the stack music from that big old slow-turning six. But please keep making videos. I love seeing that Model K and will probably never see one in person. Bob

I second that! No sultry tune could ever be more enticing than the rich mechanical chatter.

Well done on the video Bruce. Did Rob let you drive it back home ?
