Model T on Display in Oakland CA

Post by Redleg » Sat Apr 25, 2020 5:33 pm

Hi folks,

Back in February, I came upon what appears to be a 1914 Model T Touring that was converted to a pickup on display at the Oakland Museum of California. It's the centerpiece of the Great Depression/Dust Bowl display. Great museum!

That's a museum interactive device on the rear fender, BTW. I'm sure the museum is COVID closed now, alas.

Very cool! Next time you visit, PLEASE suggest to them putting the front top bow in its proper location, that being the higher mounting ears. (A pet peeve of mine. One of many, unfortunately :) )
