Good evening

[BabyChadwick]

Good evening everyone,
I am new here but not new to Model T's and other old cars (my current daily driver is a '59 tbird). My main interest in speedsters and am in the process of collecting parts for a '12 tourabout (think 4 seat speedster).

At his point I have a couple wire wheels (not ford) although Im not sure if I will go wires or spokes. For the making of an engine I have a '14 block, RHD early hogshead, custom cam, carbs, early mag and drive,early pan/trans. Suspension I've got a tapered front and rear although I may run elliptical on the rear. I've got a ruxtel and 3:1 gears on the driveline.

Currently the body is still in the design stage. I welcome input, the more critical the better. Although please limit to the design and not the actual drawing as much of the drawing is not "finished" but there to work with the lines so to say.

My suggestion: Use wire wheels, and lose the fenders and top. Speedsters are fair weather cars!

Well as I mentioned I have 2 wires (one with broken center) but don't know if I will find others so I drew it with wood wheels. As far as the top goes, it is a 4 seater and something that would have been used on a multiple day/week/month run unlike a speedster in a race.
