It's been a while since anyone told me about the Model T they bought for $5. If you lived in Buhl in the 40's and wanted to drive bad enough you could put something like that together. We're lucky they took the photo of it for us to enjoy today. I'd say a '24 or'25 chassis with those late 30's steel wheels on the back. They don't look like the Ford V8's to me. Perhaps the wood body from a torn down building. We can only imagine the adventures those guys had.
Fun Photo.
Thanks
Rich
When did I do that?

Rich, It's been 15 years since I've been offered triple my purchase price to part with Rusty. Terrie thinks I am Daft to have passed on $15 cash U.S.

Rusty came to me at $5. I have never failed to beat the cost of the car when adding petrol!

Rusty...$5!
Rusty...$5!
Rusty... over priced?
