Thanks for that post !! That was unreal. How the heck did that thing go through all that mud?? Even todays 4X4 ATVs would have difficulty on some of those roads. Cool to watch.

Man! Roads really sucked in the 20's!!! Impressive driver too - just think.... even the most veteran driver would only have 10 or maybe 15 years of experience under his belt!!!

Very cool. I enjoyed the roll over the hard way. Roll up the windows and pull the fenders out and away we go.

I dont think any deep thought went in it . If tall skinny wheels worked on wagons. Why invent a new one

Wondering,, Did anyone see them crank the engine to restart it? I'm kinda wondering if this hasn't be a doctored film, definetly it is speeded up.
Must be the old early Photoshop guys.

Very possible, but just find it odd that it would fire right up after rolling it over though.

Still funny as hell to watch though, great you tube video.

Without sound who says they turned it off ? Did a quick check on starters.

The first electric starter was installed on an Arnold, an adaptation of the Benz Velo, built 1896 in East Peckham, England by electrical engineer H. J. Dowsing

In 1911, Charles F. Kettering, with Henry M. Leland, of Dayton Engineering Laboratories Company (DELCO) invented and filed U.S. Patent 1,150,523 for the first electric starter in America. (Kettering had replaced the hand crank on NCR's cash registers with an electric motor five years earlier.)

. The starters were first installed by Cadillac on production models in 1912. These starters also worked as generators once the engine was running, a concept that is now being revived in hybrid vehicles. The Ford Model T relied on hand cranks until 1919; by 1920 most manufacturers included self-starters, thus ensuring that anyone, regardless of strength or physical handicap, could easily start a car with an internal combustion engine.
