    Anyone knows if the *18-1* that Henry Ford stamped still exists? What body style it was?

    The Henry Ford Museum would know-- I bet they might even have the car.

  7. Pretty cool videos. It would be neat to see what they were saying to each other in the video Ryan posted. I watched a documentary once on WWI footage and trying to figure out who people were on the films and they brought in a lip reader to transcribe what people in the films were saying it would be cool to have that done to this film as well.

    Great video. I wonder in the film footage if the 3 and 5 window coupes were lost.

    Barring a failing memory, the Henry Ford Museum had (many years ago) the engine assembly only on display. No idea whatever happened to the car seen in the movie.


     
  25. Very cool videos! That Henry stamped #1 would be worth some serious dinero. I sure wish I had a time machine. I would take one of each model. Even the 4 door sedan looks beautiful in that video.
