In April 1911 the Model T was completely restyled - new radiator, new fenders, new bodies, new front and rear axles and, eventually, a new engine.

Two new bodies were offered from 1911: the torpedo runabout and the open runabout (as seen here). The open runabouts had a longer hood, longer steering columns, longer fenders and a lower seating arrangement - all of these contributing to a more racy appearance.

The runabouts were similar; the open runabout did not have doors. Both had a gasoline tank mounted on the rear deck. Price of the open runabout was $680.

There are two sets of brakes. A service band brake operates on the transmission and is controlled by a foot pedal. There is also an emergency brake is controlled by hand lever at side of car acting on the drums of rear wheels. There are three foot pedals. By pressing the first pedal 'C' the slow speed is applied; by releasing, it is in the high speed. The center pedal 'R' is for reversing the car. The third pedal 'B' is the brake.

The Model T can be entirely manipulated either by use of the pedals or by the controlling lever at the side of the car. The carburetor lever and throttle just under the steering wheel will regulate the speed of the car from a walk to 40 miles an hour, without shifting a lever or applying the foot pedals.

The Touring Car, Torpedo Runabout, Open Runabout and Roadster include at the fully equipped price: a top, automatic brass windshield, speedometer, two gas lamps and generator, three oil lamps, tubular horn and a kit of tools. The Town Car and Coupe equipment include three oil lamps, tubular horn and tools only.
