This review is from: The Model T Ford Car: Its Construction, Operation And Repair, A Complete Practical Treatise (Hardcover)

The title of this book is absolutely true. I was revisiting a restoration project on my 1926 Ford that had lain untouched for four years. Although the car was about ninety-five per cent complete, I needed reminders on some of the details of driving and tuning this car. Although this edition is a reprint of a rare 1915 treatise (missing or damaged pages and all), it was exactly what I needed to get the car running again. It also provided step-by-step details on starting and operating this car, which is entirely unlike any car built since about 1930. Even if the reader is not a Model T owner looking for practical pointers, it is still a very interesting historical record because of its contemporaneous context.
