Description
This beauty, photographed in 1929, is a c.1923 Model T Ford. Shown here in winter garb, with side curtains to keep out the elements, it roamed the streets of Fairfield, Iowa, full of teenagers with my 16-year old dad behind the wheel of his first car. Painting signs all over it was all the rage. A few examples: “Don’t laff, girls, how would you look with the paint knocked off”, and “Dust is mud with the juice squeezed out”. Dad had traded a radio for it.
