It’s not a T, but it is a 4 cyl Ford.

Took the B out for a short drive yesterday. Hopefully I’ll have it at Hershey for the Early Ford Registry meet and greet. Click on the link below for a short drive:

What could be better than that?
Thanks for taking us along.

Nice ride on a road I have driven many times.
What a beautiful day you picked for a ride as well.

Thanks for the ride, Rob.
Have you been sending pictures and videos of your progress to Wayland?

Keith,
We talk, however I don’t think his system is up and working. I’ve suggested he try to make New London to New Brighton and/or Old Car Festival next year to take a drive. He is an incredible craftsman and enthusiast.
Hope your summer has gone well,
Rob

What could be better than A Sunday Afternoon ride in a very nice Ford Model B?
Thanks very much for this, Rob!

KeithG,
My pleasure. As we sort out this B, I find myself impressed. Our early (May 1905) F is an excellent driver, and initially I wasn’t sure the B would match up. However, I’m finding the B a really good ride. While the F is a good 28-32 mph driver, the roomier B is quite comfortable at 30-35 mph, and a different, more responsive driver.
