Body was a western body with very little rust, but was pretty beat up. I ended up welding in new lower cowl pieces, new panels behind the doors. Panel below deck lid is new that I louvered. The deck lid was missing and I made this one from scratch (fits ok). The quarter panels have been welded to the tub. The entire body was sandblasted inside and out after fabrication was completed before body work was started. Body Paint is an industrial enamel, chassis/suspension is all Chassis Saver enamel.

I built this car for my father about 10 years ago. He was newly retired and the intention was for this car to be trailered behind their motorhome to South West Texas where they vacation for the winter. Unfortunately, with it not being a very good "grocery getter" car, my mother veto'd this in favor of their late model car and it ultimately never went with them. The cars entire life has pretty much been spent driving from their house into the small town where they live in northern Michigan for morning coffee and the occasional local car shows. We have trailed it to some other events around the state at times. The car has less than 1000 original miles on the entire build. My father is in his 70's now, and his declining health makes it somewhat hard for him to get in and out of the car. We are selling the car only to fund a more practical 60's car that has more creature comforts for he and my mother to enjoy a classic car on a more regular basis. That being said, the car has very little miles on it, but being 10 years old does show its age a bit. We intended the car to age, for instance the use of chassis saver on the frame (there is no UV protection to this paint, so it fades a bit with age). The car drives/rides well. Starts up extremely easy, transmission shifts flawlessly, stops well, etc. The steering is a bit tight (steering box may need a touch of adjustment to the worm gear). Overall, its in very good mechanical condition. It has some cosmetic flaws here and there, some paint flaking on some suspension parts, headers could use a re-coat of paint, etc, but overall it shows very well. Its a Model T roadster, so this isn't a car for "large" people. I am 6' tall and fit in the car just fine, not the worlds most comfortable, and my head is about 50% exposed above the windshield, so bear this in mind. Overall its been a fun car, gets tons of attention, and has a ton of nice parts and overall has a wonderful stance and proportions.
