#58

At the Henry Ford Museum, I first rode a Model T.  I rode the oldest one they had.  It was a square one like my toy jeep.  I'm going to make a toy truck and hopefully a copy of my old 1956 Ford truck.  And also hopefully an old Dodge pickup from the 60's like Daddy used to have.  I think it was a '66.

At the museum, one of my favorite things that I did there was get into what was probably a Model B.  It had two pedals so it couldn't be a Model T.  They have three pedals.  It might not have been a Model B but it certainly was not a Model A.  It could have been a Model K which didn't sell well.  It was his attempt to build a luxury car and was rather big.



One of my other favorite things was getting on a train.  I climbed in the engine.  It had one of the newer tenders which had a screw to turn so it probably was just a bunker.  The firemen made it so they didn't have to go back and forth shoveling coal because the cab was surprisingly large.
