Wonderful Things!

We had a great time at the Southern Indiana Antique Machinery (SIAM) show at Evansville, Saturday. We knew it would be a hot afternoon, so we looked fast, visited some friends, took our pictures, and headed home. I headed for the speedsters before they left the barn, and there were some new-to-me cars.

This 1915 Ford was a real beauty. Later in the day the owner took it out on the dirt track, and after one round he quit, evidently changing his mind when he saw how much dust his flivver would have to eat.

Two speed rear end, and a speedometer!


Model A's have more power that the T's, and four wheel brakes. I always have liked the way a Model A cackles at low RPM.


The fellow showing this Model A said that he had just acquired it. It's a real beauty!
