The Model T Ford turns one hundred years old this week, which makes it only slightly older than my banger.Once so successful a seller that at one time over half the cars in the world a were Model Ts, I thought I knew quite a bit about them until I saw this Top Gear segment that showed off the T's nightmarish controls.
Makes the push-button gearbox on a 1956 Dodge seem tame by comparison.
