    it's a propane powered vertical take off T bucket.
     
  3. Put a nose cone on the front of it and some tailfins on the back and you're off to the races.

    Is the body a cut down sedan?
     
  4. I like R35's version. Looks like an old t bucket someone built. I like it. If you dont want it I do lol.

    It's not a Model T. Have any larger pictures?
     
  6. It almost looks like part of a sedan that's been chopped up.

    I think that it is the missing Santa's Sleigh that collided with a war plane in 1943 and fell into the desert on top of a belly tank. NO ?? Santa's sleigh will definitely make a cool Hot Rod!!

    I would say it was a two door sedan. Since most had the doors going over the rear wheel arch. I can't figure it out.
