I am planning to buy a 1915 Model T within a year or two. I have a 1930 Model A that I drive to work and for pleasure many thousands of miles a year. Because it is driven a lot I spend quite a bit of time fixing things to keep it reliably running.
.
Here is my question....If I buy a Model T that is in good shape and drive it often, how much maintenance will it take to keep it running relative to a Model A. I know the limitations a Model T has, but many of the roads around here have speed limits of 25-45mph and most people are polite to older cars.
.
Anyone have experience with both Model Ts and Model As?
