How to drive a 1924 Model T Ford Truck

[@scottwheeler1641]

Fantastic car! Model T's were designed to be maintained at home, many owners lived far from a garage. There are KZbin videos showing how to replace the three clutch bands yourself. I hope its still rolling in another hundred years!!

[@blackbirdpie217]

I would normally drive it with the brake lever all the way forward and use my left foot on the clutch pedal, so when I stop I don't have to reach for the lever I just put the pedal half way down with my left foot, at the same time use my right foot on the brake. If I wanted to stay stopped idling for a while just pull the brake lever half way back. But you do need to keep the linkage to the clutch adjusted out a little so neutral is from the middle and when the brake is all the way back. It seems complex and it is but like anything else with practice it's second nature.

Ich liebe diese Autos von Ford..gerade den hier mit Ladefläche einfach Wunderschön!!!

[@markfortin421]

Wow...that is MAJOR 😎 cool!! I knew they were different, but I'd say it takes more than a little practice and patience before you hit the open road. A large 🚜 barnyard is a perfect playground, so if you do something wrong...no harm no foul. Good idea to mark everything for reference. Thanx for sharing, I am definitely filing this video for the future. ✌😊

That truck was totally awesome

Dang new fangled city boy 🤣

[@bcgrittner]

An electric fuel pump on a T? More likely you’re hearing the exciter coils (the buzz box) for the ignition system.

[@bcgrittner]

@Rolf Jander Indeed. No water pump, either. Henry Ford was not a big fan of pumps of any kind. Let gravity and hot water rises do all the work

[@urielmoreno452]

Yes I @@bcgrittner sbna. So you know. B bnsou

When I drive an antique car for the first time I hope to have everything labeled! haha!

[@alexhess4925]

That's why you can go on KZbin and watch and learn .youtube is great !

Very interesting. Thank you!

Nice truck. I also have a rare express body!

[@josephbragg5445]

Express body is that an enclosed delivery type by any chance .I would like to see that.

[@trabbipaul]

Oha Randy thats hard Words. Maybe he'll be familiar with technology first???? A cool Car !!!! Super thing to tape the important Things on the Car so u can dont make a Mistake thats verry bad for the Transmission.

[@TheWarped45]

one question where in the hell is the other tow truck driver holding down the winch lever?

[@TheJosesantiago123]

I think it's safer to keep it on the flat bed and drive the flat bed, 😆 I don't imagine taking the drivers test on that Great machine 👏.

[@MetismanInBC]

That is way cool.

[@hilham89]

So when can I come pick it up?

[@maxipaw-dc5xj]

I wonder how well this truck would do with a snow plow

[@MaineGaming-dc8tk]

da my love cars is ford model tt i like pickups whyy that was extreme okay

[@dondesnoo1771]

on another video his t had the creep problem too said could run you over when cranked if throttled too high.

[@brettduffy1992]

I never seen a model t with a second shifterare they easier to drive than a model a since they're only technically to gears and you don't have to worry about synchronization and non synchronization from what I take it

[@someoneelse.2252]

I didn't notice any A/C.

[@heatherharris7736]

So there's no clutch pedal? I have a model A and you clutch with the left foot

[@gordbaker896]

Totally different vehicle.

[@bcgrittner]

The T has a planetary transmission. Your A has a more conventional transmission. Hence the difference on the controls.

[@ChiDraconis]

@@bcgrittner That is what I saw on another channel; Seems the planetary spur mount triad is brought to a stop with a brake band; This acts in reduction; I am told it will not pull without it

[@rickhigson3881]

Thanks!

[@marvinthemaniac7698]

Can you drive a Model-T if you're physically handicapped?

[@brandonscherff9344]

Marvin the Maniac , depends, you really need two feet for the pedals sometimes. , although maybe you could get around that by using the handbrake lever to put it in neutral whenever you brake. My dad didn’t have use of his left foot when driving, so he could not have driven one of these, his license was restricted to automatics only.

[@marvinthemaniac7698]

Brandon Scherff the Model T was the original automatic car.

[@robertross804]

green acres hanny truck look alike

[@MaineGaming-dc8tk]

da my love cars is ford model tt

[@dondesnoo1771]

They creep in neutral not uncommon

[@garysauter7997]

Model T's don't have a true neutral. It's a planetary system. Much of the info on this video is solid. However, there's a few things I don't agree with. However, it's enough info here to get things rolling. Overall, decent video.

[@rosewhite---]

When did cars get the modern throttle, brake and clutch pedal system? This T looks like something from 1890s. No wonder Ford lost market share to GM.

[@Th3Sabator45]

Ford was really the only one sticking to this way. By the 20s there was the regular clutch and pedals. Ford still stuck with the spark advance and the throttle on the steering colum for the model A which was the late 20s

[@Kaputnik11]

The 1916 Cadillac type 53 was the first :)

[@tylerhurd9569]

Rose White for Ford it was the flathead v8 era. 1933 maybe.

Be hard to drink and drive.

[@ChiDraconis]

Naw you actually need the pain reliever

[@smug8567]

I thought I could drive one of these once. Only difference is it was a 1927 Model. The clown that let me drive it restored old cars. I didn't get 150 feet down the road when I ran it in the ditch trying to shift gears. I tore the front end all to hell, punctured the radiator, knocked the head lights clean off, and broke the windshield. By the way the windshield broke out in shards I could have got cut to bits. steam and antifreeze was shooting up in the air just like in the movies. The car owner came out yelling at me, said I just cost him about $20,000. I just said you should not have let me drive it then. I called my wife and she gave me a ride home. I never felt obligated in anyway. It was his dumb ass fault for letting me drive it with no training to start with.

[@39ctg]

you make me sick. Your'e really going to sit here on youtube blaming the owner of that poor car you destroyed and without taking any responsibility whatsoever. How can you have so much ignorance. I wouldn't be surprised if you were some kid, but as you said, you're a married man, a pathetic man at best.

[@smug8567]

All's well that ends well, I heard some poet say
