A few years ago, had a Ford Mod 'A".
In late December, would take out a gallon of, "HOT", water, (In the glass, returnable milk bottle), Slowly pore it over the carb, (to heat the gas) Couple of cranks, it would fire right up.
Then drove to houses, playing, 'Santa Claus'. (Leaving it run of course, with a piece of wood behind a tire, when gas was at .30 CENTS a gallon.)
Those skinny tires, and totally reckless driving by a 15 year old, (had a 'Farm Permit') resulted in, "Going where No One Else has Gone Before". On the Un Plowed, Snowy roads, on Christmas Eve.
Tall, Skinny, knobby, tires BEATS, 'mean looking', wide flat tires, ANY TIME, ANY PLACE.
A, 'few' years later, had a, 'new', Ford 250 4WD PU. Brother in law, was bragging about his, 'New', Ford, 4WD, Bronco. He, 'laughed' at my, PU. I said: "Lets Hook them up". We did, and I Drug him ALL OVER THE YARD.
However, a year later I found out, "I Lost", as I had to repaint the entire back of the PU, because of his tires throwing gravel at it. LOLOLOLOO
