Found me a rat rod body....

[EMT/SRT]

Me and dad went to Moultrie, Ga this morning about 3am and were there when the gates opened at the Moultrie Car Show and Swap Meet. We found a 1926 Ford Model T for $600. It's a little rough but that's what I wanted. Now "Project Rigamortis" begins!


Also I spotted a black 05 QC, bed cover, no wing, pulling a black Chevelle. Very nice truck and super nice car! I pulled thru Hardees and stopped but no one came out. Had an Alabama dealer tag.

As promised - pics of the '26. Sorry the pics have gone to hell they were taken in 1965. I forgot how bad the camera's were back then let alone the film degredation. Two pictures of the wheel, one is before and one is after, just thought I would throw them in there. Hope these help

Me to, lost a this 26, a 21 town delivery (woody) 21 coupe 21 Roadster
1 model A Track Car with a Miller Scofield overhead conversion (with C Block)
and another Modle A with a rumble seat ( forget the year 29-30 )

All the T's had all the goodies like Rocky Mountain Brakes, Ruxal 2 speed rear ends, elecric starters and more.

The woody body I bought from the origanal maker ( they still had the patterns and cut one out) came with hand written instuctions. An incredable happening ( cost over $300 in 64)

Cars have never been quite the same since then.
They burned on Shell Mountian in Santa Paula Ca. There was Nothing left as a 20,000 gal oil storage tank went up next to where they were kept. The fire was so hot that it Melted the Blocks and all, No BS
