Every summer I take several trips in my ‘22 touring or my ‘25 speedster. I’ve owned Model T’s for years and have become very comfortable driving these 90 to 100 year old cars. Using the pedals has become as natural as driving a three speed with a clutch. I’ll have a Model T for as long as I’m alive. I call the act of driving them “The Model T Shuffle.”
Wow!
My dad was a mechanic in his younger years, and worked on T's, but never had actually driven one. I had a co-worker who had a '23 truck, and she told me to bring him over! He got to actually drive a Model T at about age 88!
He had told the story in the '60s that while working part time a a gas station he had heard a Model T drive into the station. He said there was no mistaking that engine sound, and he rushed out to have a look! After hearing one for the first time, I understood what he meant. Now, if I hear a T, I know.exactly what I am hearing.
Dad died four years ago at 97. Thanks for the show, and the memories, Matt!
Learning to actually drive a stock Model T is one of my bucket list items.
keeping auto history alive. hot rod and originals.
matt ya gotta get one!
Fun show, nice to hear the old I.T. music.
That was brilliant Matt, I so enjoyed watching & listening to Jim talk you through the controls & the Dearborn experience. The centre door has been one of, if not my favourite Model T’s for many years. Doctor’s Coupes turn up once in a while here in England & there’s a centre door that’s been a Street Rod since the 70’s. It’s built along the lines of the Li’l John Buttera car, shiny stuff everywhere and finished in Pearlescent British Racing Green. Thanks for taking us along for the drive, from the U.K. 🇬🇧
Thoroughly enjoyed that T lecture with Tim Matt. What a grand master he is and I loved his philosophy on the owners being caretakers. With folk about like him the T will be around for another hundred years.
Too cool. I’ve had a stock model A for 10 years or so the kids always loved it
I love the Gilmore. I live about 25 miles from there and have been there several times.
That. is awesome. I learned how to drive in a 1933 Chevrolet. There were still plenty of Model A's around, then.
my father bought a 1925 T coupe out of Vernon Texas back in the 70's and before he sold it he had my brother and I learn and drive the weekend he sold car . what a treat your video sure brought back some memories as he passed in 2009 (96yrs)
Hey Matt
That was an amazing experience to witness.
You had a look of fear mixed with excitment and joy on your face the whole ride.
Way Cool.
Thanx fur the ride.
Be safe and Well
Man you got to do something that other people can only dream of!
Took my Dad to do the driving experience a few years ago, we had a great time! A model T drives like no other car out there, I was surprised how a car could have basically zero ergonomics.
I rode in a T runabout a year or so ago which quite exhilarating with modern traffic! A couple houses down the way a guy has an older resto '24 touring that hasn't been out in a while. I'm keeping my eyes opened for when it comes up for sale. I'd love a stock T to go with my A doodlebug and stock '37 tudor.
Thank you Gilmore Museum
Awesome Job Matt!!! So happy for you that you got to drive one!!! Great Video!!!
Love the video! as a fan / owner of early stock Fords really enjoy a little spotlight on the stock driving experience
Wow , now I want go there and try to driving experience and see the whole museum ! Thank you for sharing this with me ! Take care , stay safe and healthy with whatever you guys maybe doing next ! Doing well here in Kansas .
Awesome video, thanks for sharing! Love your channel
Looks fun to drive.
Fantastic! Im certainly going to make the drive from Canada to the Gilmore and The Henry Ford when all this Covid stuff is over!!
Both are well worth the trip. Tons of stuff to see and learn about. Check the Gilmore website for show schedule as they do themed car shows all summer long on the weekends. Also plan to visit Greenfield Village while at the Henry Ford. Lots to see and do there as well
Amazing, lucky guy getting the chance to drive a part of history it was brilliant to see two guys who are obviously passionate about cars, Jim definitely loves his job and his cars, this is something to add to my bucket list, thank you guys for bringing this experience to us I really appreciate it thank you.
Thanks for the lesson, looked like fun!
Awesome video and lovely to know folks can actually drive them too
Thanks, enjoyed this video. Production quality is awesome from my point of view.
Awesome video! Thanks Matt I now have another "bucket list" stop to add to my list! I have driven and rode in all kinds of vehicles but never in a stock model T. It's almost as if it's a time machine back to when life was much simpler and we weren't in so much of a hurry.
Matt- Mojo Speed Shop and Lounge
This was absolutely an awesome video (again!)!
Great video Matt. I need to check it out myself
Great video! I'm planning on going there. After seeing this I will definitely have to do the T experience. Keep up the good work.
that was cool what a change in a short time back in the day great vid
Wow! It really is an experience! Green with envy down here in Australia. Only seen one in static display. Not even seen one on the road ever. Though there is a guy with a stock model a inmy area, which looks grwat. Thanks guys!
l grew up w/ a 32' hotrod w/ a Ford 239 flathead v8. My dad made it from the junkyard in the 50s trying to quit smoking. My mom sold it for $14,500 in 1980 when my dad passed so it was a decent build. I drove it one time before we sold it.
Hopefully I can come and see America and Iron Trap lads the museum is must
Thanks! That was great.
Glad you liked it!
This is local to me! Awesome to see you guys out at Gilmore
I was fortunate to do this experience at Hershey with the Antique Automobile Museum. Absolutely amazing.
Great experience! 👍🏼
Seems strange seeing campus without cars parked everywhere on the grass. The Gilmore is one of my favorite places and it’s close to home. I need to visit again soon.
Great video, hope to meet you in April when you have a seminar at Gilmore.
A fine time!
Matt, I can see a stockish T in your garage with a soaped up A driivetrain and modern brakes. RAD ...Newk from Kentucky
Awesome Job, Matt! I think Jim might have new career as a TH-cam personality!
Amazing guys. I wish I could do one of those driving experiences some day. A boy can dream!!
Been meaning to take the trip over there. Great video as always!
Great video, I've been thinking of doing the driver experience and after watching this I know I have to make the time for it. Jim seems like a good guy and has a voice for radio, I hope I run into him at the Gilmore. ~Pat
To cool ty Steve
Loved your silly grin as you first started driving it.
On another subject it's amazing how many ads Utube can stick in a 15 min video. Just watching the amount of them increase. Don't worry we'll keep watching anyway Mat
Get the Brave browser, it cuts that junk out.
Ok, now I want one 😁
Thats cool
My uncle let me drive his model A in high school. He didn’t even let his own kid drive it. I remember I was too tall for my foot to hit the starter. He laughed like hell because I would have to reach down with my hand to push the foot starter switch. Then we’re driving down the road and he tell me, “next week im going to fix the brakes”.
No driver's door, no seat belts, no side mirrors, no blinkers. What a death trap !!! Hahahaha. That has to be a fun experience. The reactions of "expert" modern driver's in a 100 year old Model T. Too cool.
Thank you Henry Ford
I’ve been going to go there for a couple years, makes me want to go more than ever now. Not really that far away.
This summer plan on doing a bicycle trip around Holland Saw the Gilmore is not far from there probably take a day and go there
Having ridden in my buddy’s Dad’s 26 coupe, I recognized that shit eating grin when it started moving! I FaceTimed my Dad to show him!
I love Model Ts especially when they're Center Door cars. I wonder if there's Austin 7s?
Ótimo vídeo, parabéns, eu acompanho vocês aqui do Brasil, admiro seu trabalho, eu tenho um Ford 1929 camionete, e gostaria sim você colocasse mais matéria desses carros, que se possível montasse um , mais todo original, acho ficaria ótimo, parabéns
I have a feeling that matt's next purchase is going to be a stock Model T
And now a reverse park!
Being brought up watching Laurel and Hardy films, always been familiar with Model Ts. The way to drive them sounds very awkward. The examples there look stunning. I like how thee same chassis provides cars that range across the whole social structure, from a lowly flat bed truck, to what looks like quite a posh sedan.
I have no idea why we never went to the Gilmore! I found out ya cain't do everything!
I sold my Model A, bought a Model T project, and had no idea how to drive it. It was a1926 touring. I bought bumper brackets and bumpers, hoping I woudn't bend my newly restored fenders.
Somehow I drove it to lots of club rallys, cruises, and parades. At the time it seemed easy. Now just watching someone mashing those pedals confuses me!
I was told if you get in trouble mash on any two pedals and pull the emergency hard.
Nice Guys! Quick question; why does the steering wheel seem to travel in and out of the column when turning it left and right? Is that a "T" thing?
It has been said that the Model T Ford was the worlds fastest accelerating car for the first 10 feet!
Wow Matt looked a little intimidated at first in the t, lol. My wife looked at booking me the t experience when you mentioned it during your first video. Sold out 2021😟
Wow can’t believe it’s sold out already! Sorry! Maybe they’ll add more times!
It messes with my brain thinking about driving the T with the different pedals, modern cars are so easy to drive!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
👍👍😎👍👍
👏🏻👏🏻🙂👍🚘
Nice video and useful as I am about to become the caretaker of a beautiful 1920 T pick-up.
I gotta admit though, your gum-chewing was a little distracting during the drive video. 😐
You are a fantastic person with creative ideas,,,,,but buy a new shirt when your out of the shop
I don’t dress to impress you. Sorry.
@@IronTrapGarage sorry just trying to help....
Beautiful car but after discussing the three pedal we watch Matt chew gum. Rename this video Watching Matt Chew Gum.
