Model Ts

Good thread here. I love em all!

And I have to agree with the earlier post.

T's are underrated

And I did get the clever T and A comment. hahaha

 

" T and A ", T.I.G. and ARC { welding } right??????????????????

 

Thanks Todd, I had a feeling as I was typing that its not actually a Ford, or maybe I should start wearing my hood again when I T.I.G. weld

 

my unfinished rpu

my unfinished touring

met this guy last summer...super cool car that travels everywhere

 

here's one more

 

When did you paint it?

here is my 26trpu comin togeather very slowly

 

Few weeks ago. Did I pick a bad color?

 

Superb Corn boy!

Here's mine again...

 

I have a ways to go yet.

 

Not at all, it looks great. I don't think a T can look bad in black. You just caught me off guard.

-Dave

 

I took mine out for the first time last nite. Drove about 4 miles. Open headers.

Roads are rough in my hood. It didnt have any rattles at all. Was suprisingly very very tight. HIt a dip in the road and thought it was gonna bottom out but it didnt.

More road tests today after work!

 

Here's the '26 touring I have waiting in the wings. It'll be a fenderless jalopy on a Model A frame when I finally get around to building it.

 

Here's a pic of my '27 T tudor

 

Here's another one of mine. Boyd Who's reminded me of it. Mine is also in a holding pattern.

 

Damn.....That is perfect.

 

yeah bit low for me. hows the chassis react with the lightning holes all over?

 

So whats the skinny on that top and irons?? I'm in the middle of chopping mine for my roadster, and was wonder how much meat you removed, and how everything works. I love that car but mine sure as hell aint a clone damn near opposites!!

 

I just seen more T Tin in one thread than exists in England. No such thing as an ugly T, to me they are like your own kids, all beautiful. Thanks for the pics

MIne is officially on the road. I am going to drive it to work here in about 30 mins.

Its kinda chilly out, and no side or rear glass, should be fun. Here is the exhaust I had made for it.

 

Which "top and Irons" are you curious on?

 

The convetable top, how far is that chopped? it has a good look

 

Thanks! The posts were cut down already when I bought the body, but they just had a great look to them! I believe they were cut down about 12 or 13 inches....I would have to measure them again to refresh my memory.

The top is all custom built. It was based on the original '26 T roadster tops and a '22 Locomobile "48" roadster. It's just waterproof canvas and aluminum tubing bows w/plastic fittings (boat top stuff). It's light, cheap, and looks good on the car.

 

Here's mine, it just needs the fluids topped up and it's good to go!



It's actually a running driving truck, but I haven't had it long and it will be restored eventually.

 

My '27 on '32 frame.

 

What kinda baffles are you running in those pipes? Or none at all?

 

love the way t's look on 32 rails and yours is lookin bitchin!

 

Tee it up!
Nice little 26 that belongs to my buddy

 

love that car
