We had two in the family many years ago Steve. Don't know how much I remember about them, but I'll try. I remember that they had buzz coils and a magneto flywheel. Both of my dads had electric starters and a battery. It was really funny when he shut the engine off and he wanted to start it again, maybe about one in ten times, if the engine was still hot, you could turn the ignition on, a coil would buzz and it would start all by it's self.

Not sure if ~THIS~ is useful.

The Times has had several articles on the T lately, due to the upcoming 100th anniversary.

Hi Steve, I just sold a 25T, I might be able to help.

Mark, <span style="text-decoration: line-through">1929</span> 1927 was the last year.

Actually, 1927 was the last year. PM me with your questions. Bought my first T in 1953 for $10.

Ten bucks!

I've always wanted a ride in a T. I did ride in a Model A once, never forgot it. Amazing cars, literally an integral part of automotive history.

My Grandfather had more than a few stories about them, pretty tough cars. With the road conditions back then, they had to be.

Cool cars.
