The Ford Barn

I know I've posted about this before and so I hate to beat a dead horse, but I am seriously thinking of getting a Model T. I bought my '28 A in May and the old car bug is still.....biting..... lol Anyway, I can afford to by a 1927 Ford Model T Roadster that is pretty much ready to go OR a cheaper basket case 1926 Model TT. I'm not concerned about the speed issue. My big issue is where to put it. I might actually be able to put the T and A back to back? My garage is 28' deep. So.....how long is a Roadster? How long is a TT?

In my old neighborhood, there were many "Model T" garages with half height extensions added to the back wall to fit the nose of bigger '50's cars.

Maybe you could do the same to a "late model" garage to fit the nose of a Model T.

Seems only fair to me.
