http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1734639528.jpg The Model T farm horse contraption is a unique and inventive adaptation of the iconic Ford Model T, designed to assist with agricultural tasks. Developed in the early 20th century, this contraption used a converted Model T car chassis to function as a motorized replacement for traditional horse-drawn farm equipment. By utilizing the reliable Model T engine, farmers were able to save time and labor, increasing productivity on the farm. The contraption typically involved attaching a horse-drawn plow or other farm implements to the Model T’s rear axle or a custom-built hitch. The vehicle’s engine provided the necessary power to drive the plow or other tools, eliminating the need for multiple horses to pull heavy loads. The Model T, with its simple mechanics and widespread availability, was an ideal platform for this innovation. This adaptation was part of a broader movement during the early 1900s, where farmers sought to modernize and streamline operations with the introduction of motorized vehicles. It helped bridge the gap between animal-driven power and the advent of more advanced tractors, making farming more efficient and less dependent on horses. The Model T farm horse contraption remains a fascinating example of early farm machinery ingenuity, symbolizing a pivotal point in agricultural history. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1734639528.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1734639528.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1734639528.jpg Karl Benz with his first four wheels 1893 Benz-Viktoria, car during a trip near Schriesheim Karl Benz is on the right sitting next to his wife Bertha and His daughter Klara sits opposite him next to a colleague Fritz Held.

Super interesting. I'm watching this Desert Drifter video about his trip to Cooke's Canyon. He's discussing how the Freeman-Thomas group of 7 men tried to go through the canyon and were attacked by 300 Apache.

Porsche 961 during the 1986 race. It won the IMSA GTX class and finished 7th overall. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1734721308.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1734721308.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1734721308.jpg In 1938, the cost of a car in Ohio could be as low as $29, which seems almost unbelievable by today’s standards. This was during the Great Depression, a time when the economy was still struggling to recover from the stock market crash of 1929. Automakers, eager to boost sales and stimulate the economy, offered rock-bottom prices for vehicles to make them more accessible to the average consumer. Cars, which were typically a significant investment, became more affordable to many Americans, though the vehicles themselves were often basic models with fewer features than those available today.The $29 price tag was often associated with used cars, many of which had been traded in by their original owners who could no longer afford to keep them. In an era when new cars were still relatively expensive, these affordable second-hand vehicles provided transportation for families and workers who had limited financial resources. While $29 may sound incredibly low, it’s important to remember that the average yearly wage during the 1930s was around $1,700, so the affordability of a car was relative to what people were earning at the time.Despite the low price, cars in 1938 were still seen as a significant symbol of independence and mobility. For many people in Ohio and across the United States, the ability to own a car marked a new level of freedom, enabling them to travel further for work, leisure, or social engagements. This period of affordability helped set the stage for the post-World War II boom in car ownership, when automobiles became an integral part of American life and culture. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1734721308.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1734721308.jpg |

This Iso Isetta raced in the 1954 Mille Miglia It was the first car to leave the starting line at 9:01pm (thus the "2100" number) on May 1st and the last car to cross the finish line 22 hours, 10 minutes and 2 seconds later the next day.
