RAD thread! This is going to an awesome thread. Here are some that I've stolen, err, "saved for inspiration." I could drop a ton of T photos here.

 

Here are my two projects. I replaced the side on the 1920 and have been digging into setting up the frame as if it would have been built from 1935-42.

The 27 has no plan laid out yet.

I'm hooked on T's... it's BAD!

 

I already have to much,,, but some day, I JUST NEED A T!

Not licensed yet but I've driven it up and down my street.

 

holy crap! its killing me slowly... i see yours is home though, we are definitely racing them this summer

 

Thought you might like to see what a real T looked like back then before all those gol-durned hot rod teen ager's plumb ruined 'em, cuttin' an chopin' an' ever'thin' on Henry's wonderful cars. What's wrong with kerosene side lamps, splash oiling and a hand crank starter anyway?

 

Here's a couple of mine.

 

Here's my project.
Looking for a T radiator if anybody's got one.

 

Mine and a few more I admire

 

Cool vid!

 

Here's mine, still working on it...

 

the first two pics are from england in the early 90s

 

cool

 

A few that really inspire me ...

 

If I can ever get the Impala finished.......

 

This is a killer car!! (Pic stolen from this thread)

Anybody notice anything strange about the front brakes/backing plates? Anybody know the car or it's history... and I'm really curious about the deal on the brakes?

Steve

 

itchin' to get back on this one

 

Judging from all the cars in the photo...you're one itchy dude!

 

it was Paul Schiefers T heres the only other pic ive got of it

 

Those might not be brakes but streamlining plates. I agree it's a kool old T racer.

 

They are brakes because there is a brake line. $.02

 

These photos are of two different cars built by the same builder (17 yrs old in 1960) the first car was built 1958-60. both cars: Desoto hemi, 6 97s, Vertex mag, 39 LaSale box, Halibrand quick change
The raked T 1964-65 used parts from the earlier car.

 

I've noticed the radical rake on a few early T's. Was that a regional thing or perhaps an attempt to emulate the show buckets of the day? It seems a little radical for the street.

 

what happen to them thar circular device's it used to sit on?

 

Well I guess I'll toss mine in here as well...
