2015 International Speedsters Trials and Reunion was hosted by the Museum of American Speed, Lincoln Nebraska, the last week of June each year

Speedsters are vintage cars built from parts scavenged from Model A's and T's made until 1931.

The fastest can hit around 90 mph when low on fuel, and just one small driver.

Wow... that generation didn't have high schools, they hadn't been invented for the public school system in general until the 1930s

At the turn of the 20th Century, it was common for high schools to have entrance examinations which restricted entrance to fewer than 5 percent of the population in preparation for college. Most people were expected to be ready for a job or a family after junior high school.

By 1910, 72 percent of children attended school. Between 1910 and 1940 the high school movement resulted in rapidly increasing public high school enrollment and graduations. By 1930, 100 percent of children attended school. http://en.wikipedia.org/

3rd generation Model T family already has a 11 month old excited about becoming the 4th generation to own it... how cool is that!

I'm curious about the tools and things on the ground, looks like stories waiting to be told!

the Historic Ford Factory in Walnut Hills (Cincinatti) was abandoned for years before developers refurbished it in 2002 now used as a mixed-use space, and a 1915 Model T is displayed there, right were it was created

The three-door touring Model T is on display in the lobby, the car probably has been repainted and the tires have been replaced, but you can't tell by looking at it.

Tug Brock, it's owner, said the car has remained in Cincinnati for most of its existence, except for a time it was on display at a Chattanooga museum.

The Model T was built in Detroit, shipped to Cincinnati by train in a wooden crate and assembled at the factory in Walnut Hills. The wood from the shipping crate was then used as the floorboards in the car.

Brock said the Model T was sold new by Ford in Cincinnati to Simon Zellner for $422 in 1915. With inflation, that would be about $9,700 today.
