My grandma had one of those. Her ’s was convertible. Surprisingly drivable. No harder than a gen  1 mustang

I have a sudden urge to ride in a  rumble seat.

There was that guy at Hagerty Insurance who used one as a daily driver for a year as a PR stunt, his conclusion was that the Model A is probably the oldest car that you can still realistically use everyday, if you really have a mind to and are mechanically inclined. Just stay off major highways.

Lol I'm a big fan of hydraulic brakes. A 64 mustang is so much safer on modern roads.

yeah, the brakes weren’t good, but it never went faster than 40 and it was never in heavy traffic.

I rode in one as a little kid in a parade, but I was young enough that I barely remember it.

I think something like this would be awesome to have. Like you say it drives enough like a regular car that it’s actually usable.

I always look at old speedsters, but realistically outside of parades I’m not sure I’d really be able to drive one much.

I've seen a few people in the rumble seat of the Ramblin Wreck which sometimes drives around.
