You make a very excellent point Jessica, i had reply to you months ago however i forgot to press send, instead only "closed" the comment so it was "lost". Huh! But i well remember this, and what i had said back when.. and because it keeps coming to mind? I am here again to state this verbatim, or best i can and better. Here we go; Excellent point! The people who build this car could never imagined this, and had we told them about cellular technology, they would of thought of us as crazy. So it is, as i see our future, not to far from now...space traveling to other planets, with the help and technology of an advanced race. Who visit and share their space technology freely. Openly and take us on to journeys far far way from here to galaxies light years away. As much as we couldn't even imagine this.. And may i add, no faith or belief will be required. Just as hand held cellular technology today is common, to see these devises slip' sliding around on this bench of an very old car. As if, it is nothing. Faith then as it will be now, will happen regardless of our limited beliefs. A very bright and promising future, despite anyone who would hope to stop it. They simply can't, nor ever will..in my own estimation. I said. And what reminds me of this, is a FB post from Wun Feather i will link bellow. As i will link this post and video to his page, with the utmost simplicity. So thanks for being here. And a wonderful thanks to wonder of work and success of this channel. It was such a pleasure to had followed all the videos, which climaxed to the above cognition, thanks to Jessica. And to God, whom inspired me to come back again, and again.. At first when i had lost the comm i "felt it must not have been meant to be" i wasn't wrong. I wasn't quite as ready maybe. Until now, and with Wun Feather. I think this cycle is complete.

My dad and I visited LB Swap meet in the late 1990s; lots of bargains and tons of parts. I see that the quantity of good stuff is still being sold. Great memories for me. There's no good swap meets within 200 miles of me in Las Cruces NM
A good drive, glad you figured the coil box issue out, someone has wedged pieces of wood in to hold mine tight, probably a proper fix to do on them but I am not messing with them for the time being.
My first Long Beach Model T Swapmeet was in 1972, and I went every year for 20 years while it moved from the old Hamilton Bowl to Memorial Coliseum. We would get there at dawn Saturday, sleep at our site(s) that night and leave late on Sunday. Glad to set's not all lawn furniture and Subaru parts, as it was when last I was there. Thanks for the memories.Drive safely.
Jarred, I enjoyed your drive to the.swap meet. Good call on the #1 ignition coil. I have been driving Model T’s since since I was 18 years old and this is my 50 year anniversary of restoring Model T’s. I started at 15 years old and took 3 years to restore my early 1923 Model T with a Syverson Wagon Express.ash body. I still have it. Your driving is very good although I noticed that you consistently stay longer in low gear longer than I do. I baby that low gear transmission band. On my wish list is a Ruckstell 2 speed differential. My 1925 Model TT has a Ruckstell 2 speed diff and it is very useful even at the lower speeds of a TT. Well, back to changing a hand crank bushing. I like to use bronze oilite bushings whenever I can. By the way, the hand crank bushing is a 3/4” ID 1” OD 2 3/4” Long. Along with regular oiling, I have had long service life with oilite bushings. Thank you for posting this video..
Came for the 356, stayed for the T. We in Germany call this trip "auf eigener Achse" Great content as allways! Great greatings from Leipzig, Germany :)
You should buy a traffic light detector. I just bought one for mine. They are inexpensive but well worth having. Especially with the visor. They attach on the windshield with a suction cup.
I know that area.. you’re driving through the san pedro/wilmington area. Dude that’s badass. I live on my boat next to the henry ford bridge where the old ford plant used to be decades ago.
Love your style your a very smart man you do all the work i love that . I do almost all my work on my A Modle . I drive it almost every day ( its not much to look at ) i've driven it for the last 60 years its all org ( almost ) thanks for the great vidoes!
Make sure to use marvel mystery oil in fuel it helps our Model As and Ts keep valves rings from sticking and other benefits great video thanks for posting 👍
I bought a Chevy 1918 truck first year made from someone who didn’t know what it was I’m was gonna sell it but really thinking on keeping it because it looks so kool
Lol I couldn't hear you very good but I knew exactly what the problem was happens to me as well I stick a little wedge in there to keep the coils from popping up
Swap meet had some really nice looking automobiles.Congrats on your first real road test with the rebuild. The rattling sound seems it may be whatever you have your go pro mounted on..Its picking up the audio directly on top of it.Just an observation.
Jarred, Another great video! I love the automatic panning of the camera. How do you do that? Also you're a brave man for going that far. Of course that's a testament to the superb and thorough rebuild of your T! Did anybody else with T's there drive as far as you? I saw some Trailer Queen's there, which is no fun to me. You are probably experiencing the closest thing to how your T drove originally, except for the poor roads back then. That to have had to add another dimension of driving to the whole experience! I have 5 Corvairs that I have restored and I drive them regularly. Traffic in Michigan is a challenge for sure and that scares me more than fear of a breakdown. Keep up the great work! You are an inspiration to others. Regards, Casey in Detroit area, MI
Thanks for the comment. I think I drove the farthest. The camera is a 360 degree camera. You can pick your view and move it around when editing the video👍
I'm fascinated with the way your video camera seems to focus on you. as you're driving and then pans to the road ahead without you doing anything. How do you do that?
@@Jerod_Helt That's very cool. I know a lot about Old Fords; guess I know very little about video cameras. You're very good with the editing, for sure.
when they 1st got married,my Parents had an identical T sedan .Until Dad swapped it for a 1929 Dodge Victory six.In todays traffic The constant pedal dance and advance throttle manipulation makes T driving a real experience. And because todays roads are jammed up, it's no problem driving a 100 year old car..A few years ago me and mate were driving a 1914 and were leaving cars behind out of the lights.
The Model T doesn't have a wheel brake. The right pedal is a transmission brake. It stops the transmission. On the left is the lever and then the left pedal is the high/low speed and the middle pedal is reverse. The throttle is the lever on the right. The Model A that began in 1927 was more like a modern car. There were wheel brakes but the transmission was not synchronized called a non-synchronous transmission similar to a tractor. It requires double clutching to synchronize the speeds of the shafts within the transmission and you can also use the rpm's to shift without using the clutch called float shifting. When I learned to bobtail in 1980 I was taught to shift around 1,800 to 2,000 rpm's without the clutch.
Once I start moving I release the parking brake all the way forward then I just use the “clutch pedal” to hold the car in neutral when coming to a stop. I only pull the parking brake handle back when I park the car. The video linked below goes into more detail on how to drive the car. How to Drive A Model T and Why It's So Hard to Drive on a Hill ua-cam.com/video/cPTtXpzLBSs/v-deo.html
What kind of gas milage do you get driving the model t curious to know also I'd really love to own one myself one day really cool piece of history you got there !
@@Jerod_Helt Thanks so much. Felt 30 mph is about right for a Model T. Looked like you might be going faster. Absolutely loved your video. Thanks so incredibly much for responding. Much appreciated
Something that's always crossed my mind is.. Is there a seat-belt in the model T? if there's not is it legal to drive a model T around without a seatbelt?
No seat belts. You’re only required to have the safety equipment that came with the car. So since they didn’t come with seat belts it’s legal to drive without them.
My wife and I would love to know roughly how many man-hours you put into this spectacular restoration? Thanks so much for the most instruction playlist I’ve ever seen created. Cheers! 👍👍
If a new car smashed into you,their airbags would off, the car would be totaled, the driver would have either a bloody nose or a burnt chest from the bags lol, probably a concussion, bruised head/knees, broken cell phone, trying now to call the police, their insurance, lawyer and wife. Meanwhile you get out look at them like Rodney Dangerfield did in Caddy Shack and say hey slap nuts you scratched my bumper !! 😂 Plus you didn’t even spill your coffee while they are all wearing theirs lol 😆
what are you worried about? Back then there were no blacktop roads, gas stations in case of break down or good weather ! lol. Your screwing around with then levers too much, Drive it and like it !!
I realize to keep the Lizzy original....but for reliability and safety...electronic ignition has no rival....yes I know it takes the whole view of "why"...but hey we don't live in a society that cares ya driving a unsafe vehicle of the past ...its why I have disc brakes and turn signals front damper etc.etc...all around....I know Henry is smiling at me just the same with thumbs up 👍 😀 👌 P.

Roll down the back windows while you are driving, ha ha ha, 1920's Air conditioning. Try that today and you would crash, besides cars now a days don't even have crank windows.

Congratulations on your restoration work of this car. I watched many episodes . Curitiba / Pr / Brasil ...
You have a beautiful car!!
My mind is blown every time I watch your video's. Great job getting that machine back on the road.

God bless the model T..
Well done sir 🤠👍. Fine Job👏👏👏
I enjoy your Adventures 😋✌
I enjoyed the build series. and I also enjoy the drives you take. Regards, John

Cool car bro
the steering wheel is funny, like in half life, angular :)
it's hard without turn signal lol , i like that !! thx :)
How is the steering on these cars is it hard to turn
It’s not hard to turn. But then again the tires are not very wide
Great that this car is getting driven!! How cool is that?

How are you shifting into high without the handbrake lever? I thought you had to throw it forward or something before letting off the go pedal.

Fun to watch.
I notice your not shifting with the handbrake? Is this car custom somehow?
Rather than use the handbrake I just hold the clutch pedal in the middle for neutral.

How about Model T with EFI?
