    Was looking at the website for this years event and in the banner of the front page I see this Model T. Is this car on the HAMB? Would love to learn more about it.

    Thought I'd kick this to the top one more time. Maybe someone will know something about it.

  5. I don't really know but, I can see probably a 23-25 T body with no windshield. Probably a Model A modified chassis based on both the Axles being A. Knowing the TROG demands probably an A motor based on overall appearances. If you need more info than that to build your own clown of it, you will probably never get it done.

  6. Oh, and the gas tank looks like it's off an old Rototiller.

    Body looks narrowed too. Single seat centered in the body. The hub caps are a nice touch...

    I just dig the car. Looks to be A powered. I also thought it looked narrowed and I noticed the tiny fuel tank as well. Just looks like a cool little car.

    I figured that if it was used for the '25 race, the pic was from the year before.
    It found this video and spotted it jumping thru at 10 minutes. It may be shown more later.

    Pretty sure that's one of Joe Conforth's cars, some of his stuff has been in the Rodder's Journal.
