Car starts for first time in 106 years

Read this story. I don't believe it.

I guess it depends on whether it sat with fluids all those years and how much restoration the guy did. I suppose if you do enough work anything could be started again.

Well of course if you restore/REPLACE every part in the car, it'll run.

I wonder if he kept the same engine, etc...

Article said he started it with original parts and starting equipment. Not sure exactly how they define that though.

Maybe i missed that part of the article, but if he is the same guy.....he must be over 106 years
