Hi All...

A friend recently went to France to look over some "survivor" Model T Ambulances in museums and private collections that were abandoned after WWI....hundreds of them were left there! Anyway, he's reproducing one here. While there he had a chance to use a Touring car as his daily "driver." You'll note the touring body is unlike ours and unique to the French Model Ts of the era. Pictures: Top - George in ambulance; Model T loaner; French rear spring perches. A great history lesson!        Steve
