This is Herb and his 1924, Model T, Ford truck. Herb is one of the curators for a local truck museum. Here, at the age of 86, Herb has taken me on a trek back in time. On a rainy day in May, we drove this truck down through back woods and across grassy meadows. We drove, without incident, across a bare, muddy corn field, and out along an old abandoned trolley bed (shown here). The whole way we traversed bumpy and muddy dirt roads and pathways. The old Ford never skipped a beat and traveled across the muddy biways as if it were on paved highway. Cars and trucks back then were built to travel on roads just like this. Most roads back in 1924 weren't paved, and hosted their share of ruts and mud. Several times along the way, Herb reached up, grabbed the knob on a single flat wiper blade, and pulled it across the windshield. Herb powered the intermittent wiper that, until now, you may have assumed was a modern invention. Along the way, Herb shared some memories and spat knowledge of old trucks and how it was to travel back in the days when... Herb took me back in time. For an ever so brief moment, we rode together back to 1924. It was wet, muddy, and wonderful.
