Default 1920-25 1/2 scale model t build
Hi I'm new hear. My name is Kyle. If its made out of metal I can work with it. From forming to casting. I'm looking for some opinions on my current project. I don't have a model t. But my 5 year old loves them. So I decided to build hem one. Since I don't have one yet I've been getting my measurement from 1/32 car I got from the Henry ford. It's supposed to look like a 1920-25 model t roadster flatbed duly pickup.

Your craftsmanship more than makes up for your lack of computer skills. I'd say your son is one lucky boy.

Looks good so far but what is the engine from? Looks old.

The motor is a 1925 stover. They were used in boats and farm equipment.

Neat job... but when you put your pics into a file, either look at the lower right corner for a box with L or R arrows to turn the pics, That, or right click on the pics and select rotate "Left or Right".
I use Tinypic.com Select the pic you want, select sized for website, and copy and paste that size in your text. Youll feel like a caveman when you see how simple it is! ws

Great work!!!
Don't sweat the small stuff (computer). One picture at a time is fine for me. When the pictures is sideways, I can turn my head. Keep the progress pics coming!
Spend your time on what you do best! Thx Steve

Hill Ironworks .....................
On my "WINDOWS" System, there is a ROTATE IMAGE feature. You, probably have something similar.
When you "BROUSE", you can do that up to fifteen times, in one post.
Hope this helps.
Nice work !
MIKE
