This is a period correct dirt track racer that I built on a underslung frame using Model T rails and Chevy knuckles ,the frame is fully boxed with a 90" wheelbase for that low wide look. The body is an early Model T Ford roadster with a Model A firewall. That is why it is titled as a 1929 Model T.The motor is a 1940 Ford Flathead 60hp that has been rebuilt. The motor ,transmission , axles , brakes and all running gear are either new or rebuilt. The motor runs perfect and the transmission shifts great with no problems. It has a 12 volt battey system.The brakes and all internal parts are new. The body has been clearcoated .The frame and running gear has been painted with a flatz black paint.The seat are on tracks so that they are adjustable. It has a 1920's Fatman steering wheel to help in getting in the body.I am 6'4" and do not fit with this steering wheel but fit with a Model T wheel turned upside down,my brother is 6'2" and fits fine with the fatman wheel.This is a very cool car as you do not see any underslungs.The wheels are early Houks that have been adapted to Buick finned drums. The floor has been covered with 1924 thru 1931 Nevada license plates.The following are all the goodies that are on the car. 1940 Ford Flathead 60hp motor New pistons,rings,sleeves,bearings,valves,valve springs,lifters,cam gear,oil pump gears and gaskets Offenhauser aluminum heads Eddie Meyer intake with duel Stromberg 97's New aluminum radiator with new thermostats New straight axle , springs ,tie rods New friction shocks 1940 Ford spindles and brakes New brakes ,wheel cylinders and master cylinder Buick finned brake drums Houk 21" wire wheels and hubs New Universal 21" tires and tubes Rebuilt V8 60hp transmission with new pressure plate,disc and throwout bearing Ford 1948 rebuilt steering box Vintage 17" Fatman steering wheel Vintage Beacon taillight Vintage 3" bomber seat belts New aluminum seats on adjustable tracks New alternator New windshield glass 1933 Ford V8 shiftknob New electric radiator fan
