The folks at the Reinbeck airdrome have restored a number of vintage ground vehicles to compliment their airshow. This 1917 Model T speedster was one of 15,000,000 model T’s build from 1909 to 1927. At the time you could have paid about $700 for this car. The day I was there it had just received a new coat of paint, hence the mottled yellow tires.
Behind the model T, is a 1913 Renault, and the plane taking off is a 1929 Barnstormer, know as the D-25 which has a top speed of 110 MPH. I took my shot after watching the D-25 approach and bank for landing, and soon afterwords the cars where all started up and driven away for the airshow performance.
