Owning a model T vs model A

[Model A Ron]

I like my 29 Model A Phaeton but I find myself driving my 1915 Model T Touring more. The A is a more capable car but once you add rear brakes, and a high compression head the T is good for 35 to 40. If you add a Warford overdrive you can add 10 mph or more to that but lets face it 40 in any model T is pushing the abilities of the car. Regardless the T in my opinion is much more fun to drive and I seem to get much more attention and draw more people when driving one of my T's......people are shocked when I hand crank it and it starts on the first pull.
