1927 Ford

I've gotten a fair amount of grief about this video - thought you guys might enjoy it. i posted on a T club forum a video with the question "which steering wheel should I go with" and this was the end result. Some people say I was being reckless, some question the authenticity of the video because I never used the gas lever (it's got a foot throttle). Anyway - what do you all think? Did I make the right choice?

I agree it was Wreckless (good thing), What I DON'T get is why you didn't wait to tighten the nut with the wrench while negotiating a right turn. The windshield did look a bit like a movie screen. In a rare moment I just don't know what else to say about what I just saw....

Personally, I thought the wood wheel was prettier. Beyond that, I thought your video was festive and fitting for the season; "the horse knows the way, to carry the sleigh..."

Video #5 is now live... So do I re-use these parts or replace most of it?

What's your opinion?

Changing the steering wheel is fine, but it would be more impressive if you replaced the brakes while driving. It’s best to be safe.

What's nuts about it is this - it's a go-pro fixed to the windshield, it never moved. Somehow it turns corners (watch this one, turning in the cemetery - recognize some of the footage?).
