There are some really good 'videos online' of Model T's running through deep ruts of mud and snow, over steep embankments and the such. Love to see this stuff. Once when I had a Model T I took it down to the local creek embankment and copied the near exact ten foot climb up the embankment.


My wife's cousin tells a story of taking his Model T out on the beach in Clearwater FL and racing down the beach and then pressing the reverse pedal and as the car was screaming forward (35 mph) having the wheels turn in reverse as the car was still going forward in the soft sand - wonderful story.


As with most all of us, we wish we 'still' had the cars of our past. Surely did not see the value of those cars when we still had them in our possession, but the 'value' of our memories will remain uncompromised.
