Car
The history on this car is that it was originally built in
Ohio by an unknown builder. Then it was sold to a Punta
Gorda, Florida owner. It was 3 years old when I picked
it up 3 years ago. The basic car was done when I found it.
It’s a 1927 Model T Roadster (Speedway Body) and a Corvette
327 with a Tri-Pack. It also has a Turbo 350 transmission,
a Ford 9” rear axle with a Detroit Locker differential
and 4 wheel disc brakes. I made a few changes like
steel wheels and wide white wall Coker tires, Lake Style
Headers and pinstriping.
I really was going for that 50’s style California Surfer
Hot Rod look, like the cars I grew up reading about in
Hot Rod magazines.
