    There is nothing about that, that I didn't absolutely love!
    That's the way all automotive based shows should be.
    All technical. No BS, no filler!
    That car is perfection!

    What a kool video. Wish they would do more like this one, leave the drama to soap operas just give us the nuts & bolts.

    Clayton (MrModelT) did a great job on the show, didn't let Jay walk all over him trying to be all knowledgeable!

    ...I'm still trying to figure out a ride to Portland so I can hitch a ride in his T...

    This is the Youtube channel Jay has had for years, the CNBC show is a different deal.

    That was fun to watch. Here's a photo of the car in 2013 at the East West flathead run at Vantage Wa after they had driven up from Portland.

    I dunno. I thought it was actually kinda neat.
    (puts on fire suit:p)
    I've thought about trying something along those lines, but hard wired, with some molex plugs, that allow for quick disconnects, and to be tucked out of sight.
    $150 is a bit too rich for my blood, at the moment, but I'd consider getting one for my A.
    Adds some safety, while driving, but is easily removable for shows and such.

  26. This is the only build I know of that has managed to cross the bridge between Model T Purists & Hot Rodders.

    Very favorable thread over on the MTFCA forum.

    I think it is a combination of Clayton - this particular T - Jay willing to give it air time.

    Maybe there can be world peace after all ....

    Thanks for posting, that is a terrific Model T and I can only imagine how it must take you back in time to ride in it. The owner is passionate about Ts and really knows his stuff.

    Thanks everyone! This adventure was a dream come true and it is a real honor to have the T featured on Jay's show.

    He genuinely loved it and really got a kick out of driving it.

    He even made a pass at acquiring it. ;)
