The flattie would look good in the T

You got it John, this whole deal came into being because that flattie would look good in the T. All my life I've wanted one and it's finally about to happen, once this is home and I've had a week or 2 to go over the shape of it and figured out my parts it'll start getting built. Would really like a Track T or a Race -a - bout T. May need a faster shifting transmission than this one tho.

Its a 2 row with the little doors and from what I could figure out its some where between a 1916 and 25. It has leaf springs that arch back along the frame rails in front and forwards in back, kind of like a V. Almost like an eliptical or torsion style spring, they don't have that vertical look to them at all, will check my pictures to see if one shows it.

The more that I looked at the pic the more that I realized that they are half elipticals and not regular leafs. Guess that narrows my search a bit

That 59 A motor is too old as a spare motor for my stock 53 M100, a good thing you have a use for it Perry.
Hope you feel better Grant, don`t need any more Gravol!
It started out nice and sunny here this morning then the dark clouds rolled early this afternoon, the wind came up. it ended quickly with just a little shower.

Sweet little car Morris, to bad you let it go, but I'm going to be doing the same thing with the 75 later this summer as I don't really need it.

This T doesn't have the corner cut doors in the back and that change occurred in 26. I'll run the suspension in my next search and see if I can figure out the year that way.

There will be a thread John but may start it a month after the build starts, have a thread started in the 48 to 56 forum, "New adventure".

The frame on this T is from a Model A, this car must have been somebodies hot rod project. LOL Will be needing a faster shifting transmission for sure now.

Thanks Perry. After owning it for 11 yrs it was time to let it go to a new home, especially after getting these three.
