Build story
My wife’s father and grandfather have always been into model T’s it was never my thing as I’m 26 years old but I love racing, my father in law introduced me to the new port antique auto hill climb in 2018 and I was hooked this is the second largest racing event in Indiana next to the Indy 500 . I knew I had to build one the rules are simple factory block frame transmission. The goal make it as fast as possible the old school way all motor and weight. I completed the car summer of 2020 but unfortunately the hill climb was canceled due to Covid . So I have a 80% original model t race car with a few modern touches which makes a 95 year old car run 83 mph which is almost double what they did new !
