devonianwalk Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Now that is impressive. I couldn't see a modern car making it through some of that slop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 That's one durable SOB! Being light as hell and having skinny tires probably helped it a lot in the mud. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Precise1 Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 They beat on it pretty hard! I kept waiting for one of the front tires to fall off... B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karmann Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 (edited) The cars of that era were rudimentary by today's standards, but intensely durable. As on my 31 Ford Model A pickup, pretty much all cars of the era were purely mechanical- no servos, computers, or even hydraulic systems. There were no computers to fry, filters to gum up, disk brakes to clog, shocks to blow, coilsprings to unseat, ignition systems, intake manifolds, abs, radial tires, aluminum construction; none of it was there really, or it was in it's early stages. This was a time when even starting a car without using a crank was rather novel. They were simple and low powered- basically high speed tractors with skinny tires in big radiuses (pizza cutters FTW!), with cast iron everything, but specifically motors, and steel that could be used on a battle ship. Amazing vehicles, thanks for sharing! Edited September 29, 2013 by Karmann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
