That would be something in a Model T alright!
In 1970 I came home on leave from Fort Bliss and drove 1,500 miles in 24 hours in my 1950 Studebaker Commander. Drove non-stop with only a few quick gas stops and eating snacks while driving. I'd never try that again, and probably couldn't do it again, even if I tried.
