    I live in the USA and it seems that the majority of Model T Ford related videos are made by Model T enthusiasts in the USA. With this in mind it's really cool to see that there are actually Model T Ford enthusiasts in the UK. I expected all of the Model T Fords in this video to be left hand drive drive models from the USA so it was suprising to me to see all the Model Ts in he in this video were all right hand drive!

      Hi. Apparently there are approximately 3000 T's in the UK. Mostly imported by Neil Tuckett.
      Personally I love them.. the original car. ❤

    Neil’s trip to the Model T stash was excellent. Friends here are very much into Ts. One guy inherited several from his grandfather and we love seeing those 100 year old cars show up

    Looks like you and I have exactly the same weather. Pennsylvania and the uK....whoda thunk it? I just gave my 1920 Porsche 914 to my friend because I just do not have the room or the funds to take on that project. I am really close to being able to start on my 1928 Morgan/Pembleton build. Really awesome video this week. Great part about the terrifying T driving. You are doing incredible things that look awesome with stuff other people couldn't envision. You have a real talent for visualizing parts in their native or raw form. I wish we lived closer. If you ever come across the pond you will have to stay for a spell.

    I'm finding it hard to get out in the barn and build my own "leaf" on account of my barn not being centrally heated!
    Then I watch Mr Oakswamp working away on his car build, in the ice and the rain.
    I put his determination and enthusiasm down to sheer bloody mindedness, possibly aided by him adding a little antifreeze to his breakfast cereal.
    Brilliant and highly entertaining as always. Highly addictive to watch.

    Loved Neil's shopping trip to the T barn. My first car, at the age of 15, was a '27 T Tudor. I recall an old fictional tale about a gear head who was confused & disappointed hearing that his recently deceased car dealer uncle had bequeathed him a tea warehouse in another city. When the heir went to inspect his pro, he found it to be a "T" warehouse! Maybe not so fictional after all. 🙂 Another entertaining production. Clever tail light mount! Looking good. Thank you.
