Default T Speedster
I thought I would share some pictures of my T. I've had it running for about a year now but still putting finishing touches on it. I just had the lettering done a few weeks ago. I did the work myself, from pouring and boring the babbitt to forming the body and painting it. Had a lot of help and guidance along the way from a lot of great Model T guys!! Headed for the Newport Hill Climb next month!

Thanks for the kind words! Here are a few more pics. Bubbas Ignition supplied the distributor setup and the hard to find Bosch front plate. This setup works flawlessly and uses centrifugal advance so you don't have to mess with the spark rod. I'll be at spam a rama for sure Jim!!!!
