Frankie Drake Mysteries - A Model T Delight

Post by BE_ZERO_BE » Wed Sep 02, 2020 2:19 pm

Frankie Drake Mysteries is an TV detective series set in the 1920's.
It airs on CBC - a Canadian TV network.
Many of the outdoor scenes with motor cars use Model T's exclusively.
Mostly black era cars - Tourings, Center doors, pickups, etc.
All are nicely restored and real cars.

Did any of our Canadian friends participate in the filming of this series?

I drive a Model T ... Microseconds don't matter :D

For every Absolute Model T Fact there are at least three exceptions.

My wife loves that show but hates it when I comment on the make and year of the Ts. LOL

The past is a great place and I don't want to erase it or to regret it, but I don't want to be its prisoner either.
