The open runabout is simply my favorite model t! I’m sure the torpedo and runabout have inspired thousands of speedsters! I know it has mine
Thanks Royce for the great article on the 1911 Torpedo and Open Runabouts! I own a 1911 Open Runabout and even though it’s a “put to gether” of correct period mechanical parts and Rootleib body/fenders, I still feel lucky to have it. Since the photos below were taken, I have found a correct “potato” horn for it and have a set of gray tires that need to be installed. I have also have a “correct”??? tool box for it like the ones used on the 1912 version, but at this point, knowing that it never came from the factory with a trunk, I’m not going to install it and just leave it on the shelf for the cars next caretaker.
Roger thank you for the kind words. Your car is one of the few restored cars that I can look at and not find much of anything that I would change to make it better. Thank you for sharing the photos!
