"T" Time







After the first rebuild of my '29 and just after a trip to the USA I purchased a '23 T Roadster body to build a 'gow job" as they called them in the day. I had always liked the Isky T roadster but even that was too new for the era I was aiming for so I looked in my Don Montgomery books and looked at some "gow jobs". The photos here show my '23 T body on a T frame, with a suicide mounted T front end, an A engine mocked up and an A rear end out the back. The wheels are 21 inch Model A wheels. The Multi Aldrich T roadster was also an influence.



Unfortunately this is one car I regrettfully sold. I would like to do something similar again one day. Maybe a tourer?
