How time flies
Posted: Mon Feb 15, 2021 6:45 pm
I started working on a Model T when I was a Junior in high school. It was a stuck motor, frame and 2 axles.By the time I got married it had evolved into a roadster pickup, not a thing of beauty , assembled from parts, assembly over time, similar to our lives. It got left behind when we moved to the west coast and has not been started in 50 years. Time flies, marriage,children,family, work and caring for aging in-laws always surpasses working on a T. Today we have been married 52 years. In the the last few months I have been able to get a few things done and want to try to start it this spring an take it for a spin.
I do not regret how life flies by and never regret things done for family as they should always come first.
I was looking into buying a Roadster a couple of years ago and the man asked me why I would want to buy a Model T at my age. I told him why not, I may not be 21 anymore but there is no reason my wife and I cannot enjoy the pleasures of driving a model T. Besides it keeps us younger as time flies by.
