One incredible 1909 touring car with horsehair seats

For the video of it's crank start: http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2009/01/crank-starting-benz-thats-over-100-yrs.html

Crank starting an EMF that's 100 yrs old, engineered to make everyone capable of starting it the hard way. It takes 5 attempts, and 20 seconds.

Wow. If I can live 100 years, and still move... I think I'll be ahead of the statistics. If I can get moving under my own power 20 seconds after trying, I'll be surprised!
