Accessory 3rd brake ( STOP) from the 1920's era.

Most of the camber removed from the front axle which makes this T easy to steer in any direction.
While you do get a little more speed with the Rajo, the big advantage is the power/torque no need to worry about hills and when to downshift. I restored this car in the mid 1980's so it does show some signs of wear, like scratches and chips in the paint. The car is painted with acrylic enamel and easy to touch up. The chassis was restored in 2014 and only a few hundred miles since then.
