    My Great Grandfather had this exact car, I have two pictures of it, one with my great grandfather and great grandmother, and the other has my grandmother at 3 years old standing on the floor with my great aunts. Great to see it run.

    That car,and thinking mechanically is what's keeping that man's mind sharp."Dont sit down or you'll go down" is what my Dad always said.

    I think those 'inventions' installed last years like "hacksaw starter switch" or starter over motor top are done by your Dad! They are VERY INTERESTING and they are evidence of a fresh mind of your Dad. The dixy cars presented by Him are perfectly original and 'the YT route' on them was a great pleasure and discovery for me! THANK YOU BOTH

    Thanks for the tour!! I can thoroughly see why electric cars were popular at that time. I imagine with the electric cars that the maintenance was probably less than 1/4 of the ICE cars?

    Didn’t Jack Benny own a Maxwell while doing his old radio shows? I found this on Wikipedia:
    A decrepit old Maxwell was famous as the car Jack Benny drove decades after it had stopped being manufactured. The running joke was that Benny was too stingy to buy himself a new car-or even a newer used car-as long as his old one still ran, however poorly.

    I am enjoying these videos. Ask your father if he has heard of Dort automobiles or Gray Dort as they were know in Canada. He might even have one . Have not watched all the videos yet
