A little info on the above Denny Woods roadster: Its a 1924 Ford Coupe. Removed top, shortened 21", Channeled 4". Hand made tube frame, chrome floorboards. 59' Buick Nailhead with six carbs hooked to early Ford driveline.
Paul Strauch 15' T. Here's some specifics: the body is a OCR '15 T, fitted with brown mohair by Unlimited Upholstery of Mansfield. It rides on a rectangular tube frame with opposed coil front suspension and Jag independent rear, and all wiring and lines are concealed inside the frame. Brass lights are original '15 T, and the Tru Spoke rear rims were widened to 16 inches for the 17/28-15 Goodyear Blue Streaks. But it's the engine you're waiting to hear about, right? How about 494 inches of all-aluminum big-block Chevy with steel billet crank, aluminum rods, 7:1 pistons, roller cam, Summer Bros, gear drive, roller rockers, titanium valves, B.D.S. 6-71 blower driven 35 percent over, two 1050 Dominators, Vertex mag—all running on alcohol.

Gary Matranga T at top half of magazine page. Start with a '57 vintage 392 Chrysler, add Forgedtrue pistons, Howards aluminum rods, Donovan rockers and valves, Clay Smith cam and valvetrain, Velasco crank, and Donovan oil system. Then top it off with a Vertex mag, 6-71 Jimmy, and a 4-port Hilborn injector, and you've got some serious street sounds. It's backed by a B&M Torqueflite, and underpinnings include a 2x4 tube frame, '77 Vette independent rear, Deuce Factory 4-bar front, four-wheel disc brakes, and a set of dragster-size tires.

Looks very similar to Dick Knutson's Novel T but its not. 07 by mrwizard posted Aug 20, 2025 at 1:34 PM
Thanks for these- I’ve only seen a couple of these before. I love this car- probably my favorite bucket.

A group of us went to the Windsor Area Street Rods Campout in 1982. Tim's car sat so low that a bunch of us had to lift the front end to get it across a railroad crossing.
Price one pays to be low. That exhaust though. Really hard to find folks that do custom exhaust like that any more.
I took these at the 2017 Portland Roadster Show. I don't know if it predates the 1965 title of the thread.
Local to me, saw it in the 70's around here a lot. Yes, on the "blower". Full article Here: https://www.hotrod.com/features/the-scrounge-december-1972-982-682-125-1
Wow, someone's paying attention! I'm surprised the "dummy" blower" tirade didn't erupt from the HAMB blower police. It does seem odd that Gayle didn't include an operational drive on it, but he danced to his own drums, as you are well aware I'm sure, It was fairly popular during that era. Bob, there was a T-bucket in the magazines years ago that you no doubt recall, the photos show it in the (I think) San Diego Chargers stadium parking lot, if I remember correctly it was owned by a football player, it had the outrageous angled twin blower setup with Enderle injectors, real or not, this kid was quite impressed.
