Back in the mid '50s I was driving a Model T coupe, mid summer, windows open, when a fellow pulled up alongside me and hollered over "what kind of car is that?", "Model T" I replied, he yelled back "I know what kind it is, I want to know what make it is", "Ford" I said, "thanks" he said and drove off.
I assume he called all old cars Model Ts, not realizing that Model Ts were specific to Ford.
