Henry Ford is soon to be the
proud possessor of "Old 999" the
gasoline speed wagon in which Bar
ney Oldfield won his first race and
the first automobile to travel over
a circular mile track in less than 0
seconds.
' Tbis is the word brought baca
from Portland Wednesday by J. W.
Harbison. Ford sales manager of the
Motor company. Mr. Harbi
son saw the veteran old fpeed vehi
cle at the sales rooms of the William
iinirhann Automobile comoanr. ord
agents and was informed that the
old relic of the day of flat track rac
ing is soon to be shipped to aan
frrancisco for further exhibition and
thonrA smt . to become the property
of the head of the Ford Motor com
pany.
Just whr Mr. Ford should be
proud to be rated the owner of "Old
999" can be better understood when
it is known that he was the designer
of the veteran machine, which was
ressurected recently from the chaos
of a Los Angeles junk yam.
"Old 999" was-' the forerunner of
the highly perfected Ford car of to
day, as was the machine which first
starred Both Ford and Oldfield on
the road to fame In motordom. It
was constructed 18 years by Ford a3
his entry on the first auto race ever
held in Detroit And took its place in
history as It passed over the finieb
line leading the. field. OldHeld pi
loted the car in this first race and
continued to do so for the following
two years, during', which time he es
tablished the record of covering a
circular mile on a flat track in less
than a minute.
. While plainly demonstrating the
great strides which have been made
in the development when compared
with the automobile of today "Old

The highly standardized lubricat

The differential systems also were
unthought of. The old racer covered
its fast miles and negotiated tha
sharp curves without a differential.
