Neil Tuckett and Jamie Davidson, begin their attempt to drive a 1911 Model T Ford to the top of Ben Nevis on May 16,2011 in Fort William, Scotland. The challenge has been organised in memory of a pioneering Edinburgh car dealer Henry Alexander, who drove to the top of Ben Nevis to prove the ruggedness of the Model T.
