Ford T models
But didn't Henry Ford say you could have your Model T in any color, as long as it was black? I don't think you could order it in Candy Green Apple.

Most definitely. The drivers tell me it's a pretty nice ride.

I have heard that he did not say that - but I'll bet the green was not a showroom floor colour!!!

I believe the actual quote was, "You can have any color you want, as long as it was black."

Thnx,

feral bull/buffalo catcher.
from memory it is a short wheel-base Toyota Landcruiser.
the system is run down a feral bull or buffalo, run up beside and drop the arm (hunk of steel hanging in front of the wheel) over the animals neck and slow to a walk and lead the animal to where the handlers are waiting. Don't be put off by the has-been appearance of the Toyota - they are kept in tip-top mechanical condition.

Just don't miss, lest you have a mad bull with you in the seat

No pictures to add. Just saw the title of the thread and reminded me of the John Candy/Steve Martin film. Good thread anyway... will try to participate.
