Funny thing is, Ford did produce a few Model Ts for their Centennial


whoever wrote the article though, doesn't know a lot about the Model T

I beleive it was supoosed to be sarcastic. Note the $950 sticker price. Even if they were to produce the T again, it would certainly cost near what a new car woud cost.
That article was not very good.

The Onion isn't sarcastic, they never lie and they have stories that no one else will share. Take a look.

Thank you for clearing that up. Are they also 'Straight Edge' ? :D

Sounds like the perfect move if you want your company to get lodged even deeper down the crapper. Who in their right mind would buy this, even if it were to be produced? Other than Jay Leno of course..

Motorhead just wants it to chop up and rat-rod it. Thats what I would do. But then again I already have two 31 fords.
