That model T was a pretty good off-road ride! I liked the way it simply drove off the bank to the flat below.. Pretty cool.

 
Thanks 'Khunajawdge', that was fun.

The very last Model Ts, last year or so, were offered with an electric self-starter.

They, Model Ts, also had something-like electronic ignition (magneto) but with no contact points/distributor. The replacement Model A had points/distributor that cars continued to have for decades.

The Model T also had an 'automatic transmission' (of sorts) -- the driver did need to operate it (in that regard, kind'a like an 'AE') :) .

The Model A successor had a 'barbaric' manual transmission.... :rolleyes:

Early Fords, generally (IMO), are a lot of fun -- interestingly innovative (at least thru the '30s).
