Will they ever get it right??

Post by Bud Delong » Tue Jun 01, 2021 9:06 pm

Watching the history channel and i wonder if anyone ever checks their work/facts??? They are telling in 1926 Ford to compete cut his prices then they show brass T's with acct lights?? Talking about the future with the model 70 Chrysler with it's high compression engine and showing a model A engine??? On and on, everyone wanted more speed than the model T that would only do 35 mph????? I will go back in my cave now!! :D Bud. :D

I saw that as well. I'm a firearms instructor and my wife says I can never watch a movie that has a gun in it because I point out all the things they are doing wrong. Especially the early flint lock footage. :lol:

Par for the course. I would be surprised to see a Model T "documentary" where
1 the words are accurate, and
2 the pictures belong with the words.
The inevitable often happens.
