    Fred,
    From the pic, my guess is he didn't consider that the "watts" levels out when all weight :p is in place?

    Hey tfeverfred, I was wondering, I'm planning on re-doing my tbucket steering column and wondered what did you bolt the column support to under your dash? Does it go all the way to the firewall? I ended up bending my column after a.... spirited run, hehe.

    Does anyone know where to get a 10", 11", or 12" (prefer 12") Model T steering wheel that is "flat"? (no dish)? I can't seem to find any for sale that aren't well above my price range.
    Actually, as long as it has a 3-bolt Grant bolt-pattern; I'd go for any flat steering wheel that looks at least semi-old school. Anyone know of a place or have one they would sell/don't want?

    That interior looks great. I also try to go the low buck route for my T-Bucket and I just replaced my carpet. I used outdoor carpet from the big box store rather than automotive carpet like you did - your carpet looks much better. My floor is not flat, so I just glued the carpet to it with hot glue so it would follow all the contours in the wood floor that is partially covered with epoxy. I had used this type of carpet before and tried the velcro attachment method so I could get to the underfloor master cylinder, but I it didn't work. This time I glued the carpet to the removable wood piece over the master cylinder and cut around it so I could easily pull it up - it is hardly noticeable. Although it is glued down, it is easy (but messy) to remove and replace by heating it with a heat gun and just pulling it up and then heating and scraping up the glue that stays stuck to the floor . The carpet is cheap and fairly durable and looks OK.
