Comedic use of automobiles in silent movies

Above Buster Keaton enacts a common concept that a Model T had to be put down like a horse when it's useful life was over, because like a horse, it was all give and no take, all heart.

1929 and 1924

the wheel chair has an attached power wheel, looks like something I just watched on the History channel show "American Pickers" an interesting show I like to try to catch. Also similar to the Briggs and Stratton motor wheel
