My grandfather had a '17 Model T that I was hopeful to inherit when he passed away but it went to somebody else in the family. Always loved that car and your dad's is looking pretty sharp. Is it original or has it been restored?

Looking good! Mine isn't quite as nice, my Vette and T-bird share a garage together. Neither is considered a classic but both are fun.

Fun is what we have our cars for. I have driven Model T's, A,s and other classics. My 88 C-4 is a fun car to drive. Take any one of them on, on any given day, and you will have fun.

My dad has been working on restoring two other ones, but found this one already restored for under $10,000 and in excellent condition, so he decided to buy it so he'd have one to run around in while he works on his other ones.

For completely different shaped cars they actually do look great together. And it shows how low C4's are!

And how high Model T's are! My dad has to lower the soft top on the Model T to get it in the garage!
