Lee Shults of Kansas, right, looks on as Bill Eden of Illinois checks the oil in his 1927 Ford Fordor Model T at the Vicksburg Inn and Conference Center Wednesday. Eden’s antique car is one of 46 traveling with the Tennessee T’s Natchez Trace Tour, stopping in Vicksburg to visit the tourist sites. The group has driven about 550 miles so far in the 20-horsepower engine vehicles.
