Excerpt from www.citywindsor.ca/residents/historyofwindsor/Documents/M...:
THE MODEL T
"I will build a motor car for the great multitude. It will be large enough for the family but small enough for the individual to run and care for. It will be constructed of the best materials, by the best men to be hired, after the simplest designs that modern engineering can devise. But it will be so low in price that no man making a good salary will be unable to own one - and enjoy with his family the blessing of hours of pleasure in God's great open spaces."
Henry Ford - 1908
Artists: Glen Donaldson
& Diana Goddard - 2000
Apparently a 1920 model, it made an appearance at the Cars & Coffee event at a local church in Queen Creek, Arizona.
The purple tint within the headlight glass is probably the result of manganese added to he glass that has been exposed to Ultraviolet light. UV light occurs naturally in sunlight. Manganese is added to glass ironically as an agent to make it colorless lest the glass might appear greenish or yellow. It is effective in doing so but UV lighting eventually causes the purplish tint.
The license plates have been altered for privacy.
Was in Maine all of last week and visited a fantastic antique car collection at Seal Cove Auto Museum in Maine. The collection features some of the earliest automobiles and motorcycles, as well as clothing and accessories, from 1895 through the early 1920s. An amazing display of how the many different ways basic automotive features were combined on each vehicle. Well worth the visit.
HSS!
I saw this Model T on the way to the Poto singlespeed world championships... The light was perfect and I was late. It was still there on the way back but the clouds had moved in and someone had opened the door int he back of the barn. So, still a neat shot for my P&S (which got me a good DOF anyway - I dunno where the exif went) but it could've been so much better if I had stopped on the way there... I was angling for something for this week's PCA and all of the lines here kind of fit the bill (overall image quality and the lighting doesn't though)
Many thanks to Jim Kinkennon for giving me his permission to use his excellent picture of this vacant, abandoned farm house being used as the background image in this composite composition. Mr. Kinkennon’s original picture can be viewed here - www.flickr.com/photos/132939103@N04/30414228605/.
The picture of The Model T truck was found on-line and downloaded. Subsequently I discovered this picture is the property of Beamish Transport Online. The original image can be viewed here - beamishtransportonline.co.uk/2016/08/model-t-programme-up...

Old Photo
Well, not really. I photographed the Model T at the Back to the Fifties car show and then "reparked" it into a different image that I found on the web.

Except way down in some gullies, where it got compacted and the sun hits for only a few minutes each day, it would be hard to tell it snowed Christmas.
Shoot, it hit almost fifty today and some of the local fellows decided to move the weekly Checkers Game outside. You know, they never even looked up as the GM, Parade of Progress went by.
All you folks in the frozen East have our sympathy. We will pay for this nice weather at some point.

Prompt: create a watercolor artwork of A black and gold 1912 Ford Model T with leather seats, on an old country road background, in a full view, photo realistic style.
You see a lot of things at car shows. This is fairly common but I aways enjoy it. This vehicle was seen at the annual Ol' Marais River Run Car Show held at Forrest Park in Ottawa Kansas.
I don't know what the story is regarding this sadly neglected vintage auto seen in Ocean Beach, San Diego. It's sitting right next to a beautifully restored auto. The front wheels are shredded, so it appears that it hasn't been moved in a long time... The salty sea air is probably hastening the demise of this old wreck.
I'm not sure what model it is - there were no identifying marks...

My husband just blew the third crankshaft, in seven years, on our 1925ish Model T Depot Hack. While he worked on repairs I started taking pictures. He dug out old cogs to make things easier for me. But in the end I did take some pictures of the engine he's repairing as well.
The Curious Cobalt Kaleidoscope

I'm happy to share this image from one of my night photography desert safaris! This is a vintage 1924-25 Ford Motel T automobile that I discovered on my travels. I love the way the clouds frame the grille. I used a handheld light to illuminate the car and enhance its mystique during this long exposure photo. Warm white light and a couple of bursts of blue light on the headlight gives it an extra touch of intrigue and mystery. I hope you like it, thanks.

This "Canopy Express" Model T Ford carriage was manufactured May 8, 1919 at the Ford assembly plant, Iron Mountain, Michigan. The plant encompassed 40,000 acres of hardwood timber used in the production of Ford vehicles featuring wood components.
No two authentic Model T wooden bodies are alike. Each body was custom-built at a private carriage shop, after the customer purchased the T-chassis from a Ford dealer.
Specifications:
• H.P. 22.5 (top speed 40-45 mph)
• Fuel - 10 gal. tank located under front seat - gravity fed to engine
• Electric start - 1st year available was 1919 (prior - crank start only $75 option)
• Electric head/tail lights with kerosene lights mounted on both sides of windshield
• Rear gear offers more power than forward gears - model T frequently had to be driven in reverse to climb steep hills.
• Henry Ford pioneered the left hand steering wheel

The Red Spokes of Fortune

I'm happy to share this image from one of my night photography desert safaris! I believe this is a 1920s Ford Model T flatbed Ford that I discovered on my travels. I used a handheld light to illuminate the spokes and enhance its mystique during this long exposure photo. A sweep of brilliant red light from behind gives it an extra touch of intrigue and mystery. I hope you like it, thanks.

Another gloomy day, what a surprise. So I headed out to the garage with my husband and took a few macro and other shots of the taxi.
