    Very nice non-RPU T. Interesting to notice how far forward the rear axle is.

    Hardly any of the "fad" T's had front brakes. Wasn't it Ed Roth that said something about hot rods being dangerous and sex being safe?

    Here is an example from Dick Knutson. A lot of the guys/cars pictured here were Early Times CC members.

    Not really a T but cool in a crazy 60's way. Anyone know what kind of blower that is?

    Bill Fredricks built that long one. It was on the cover of Car Craft Magazine. March 1968.

    I've got a black and white of Kendall's car around here somewhere... I'll see if I can find it and post.

    John 79: You're welcome! Glad there are people out there that like these cool T's.
