Every year about this time they come rolling into the new season, glittering in bursts of brass and memories, ready to tool along such revival trails as the annual Endurance Run and Lowland Tour out of San Jose—presenting the images at right and on the following pages to prove that the oldtime Model T Speedster is alive and swell

Engines rattling along, the Speedsters pour out of San Jose for the run, a 200-mile adventure punctuated by pit stops where one gets out and gets under, and a devilish hill where pushing is perfectly permissible and a strong reverse is handy.

Boiling through the dusty California hills, the T's stay on the attack, racing against an already established time to be revealed after the checkered flag in Santa Clara.
