The other choice I had for this thread was “that’s a damn good dog…..”

Looks like Peter did a super job. Smooth riding and smooth running. Enjoy.

Working on parts of this car was certainly a privilege for me. I think this early in production Henry may himself have laid laid hands on the same car as me. I am honored to have had a part in the earliest four cylinder Ford running.

Wow. What a great ride!

When I was a kid, we had a neighbor that had a dog a lot like that one. Always playing chicken with and chasing cars. Till the day the neighborhood gardener's trailer got him.

I swear, as the car accelerated up after making the left turn at the first stop sign? I could hear the car going "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang!"

Sure wonderful to that nearly 120 year old big Ford running down the road as it was intended!

Thank you for sharing the video!

One more wonderful look at the Model B.
There are times I don't know how I could enjoy the hobby any more but you continue to show me.
Thanks for taking us along.
