    Model T hot rods are fun. Good luck with the build and make sure you post a build thread.

    This was mine, a '24. The guy who built it said that it should have had a flattie or a banger, but he just happened to have a 350 SBC so that's what he used. If I had bought it when I was, say, 40, it would have been a lot of fun. But I was actually 65, and it was a bit rich for my elderly nerves. It was big fun anyway, but I scared myself silly whenever I got on it hard.
