I was trying to kill boredom by reading Wikipedia, stumbled accross a Ford concept called the Model U, meant to kind of emulate, and be a modern version of, the Model T.

Pics- http://www.conceptcarz.com/vehicle/z6655/Ford_Model U/default.aspx
Details Article- http://media.ford.com/article_display.cfm?article_id=14047

Personally, I think it's pretty cool. I'd of had a different drivetrain, and the body is a little concept-ish, but it is one after all.

I love the physical design of it. 4 door true hardtop with rear suicide doors, and the rear gat can be let down (and it looks like the "trunk lid" folds up to) for moving bigger junk.

Most concepts look like a babboons ass.

Obviously if it hit the road the styling would be better.

Hydrogen is moot. CONCEPT car. Means Ford technicians/engineers went "hey, let's see how fancy we can make this".
