    I've always admired Clayton's Model T, so it was great to get an up-close look. A refreshing change to see a "real" car- featured--as in, home-built and obtainable. 12 forward gears and 6 in reverse! Heck, I can barely keep track of 3!
     
  4. I have a new hero. And of course I don't mean Jay.
    Show was great. Only thing missing was seeing them use the top. But that's probably just me, since I have similar windshield and no top :(

    Congrats Clayton.

    Absolutely not!!!! Car looks just great the way it is. A SBC would ruin what this car is all about and the era that it represents.

    For some reason, I thought I replied to this.

    Honestly, I was shocked that so many purists fell for that car. There was at least one instance were a troll (shocking on the internet, I know) attacked my car for some stupid reason and it turned into a big debate and several of the big Hard-line purists that don't like anything altered....jumped in to my defense.

    Maybe your right, world peace is possible.
