T motor questions

[J Man]

I am looking to do a hopped up T project/speedster and was wondering if there is a certain year(s) that would be more favorable to purchase for my project? Thanks

Who doesn't like the all steel bodied '26-'27 fenderless runabout as a hot rod T?

Or if you like wood framed steel panel, then the '23-'25 runabouts are nice too!

Well, being the old WINDBAG that I am (!), Ill say its yours ad build what YOU like. You can go from early primitive/rusty to a really nice go-job with a raccoon tail flying in the breeze. Word of warning though... the judges and the purists hate 'em. I love 'em. ws; that's right, yachtsmanbill !

If it were building an engine for a speedster I would use the 26-27 set up with the hogs head bolted to the block. Makes for a stronger engine setup.

I would love to drop a regular T body on it but it would all depend on what is available when it comes to finding one.
