When I take photos I often compose them like I might a painting. I thought a thread of photos with interesting colors, textures or situations might be fun. I know many of us have amusing ones here and there.

This one is of my precarious Coupe body waiting to be lowered onto the chassis. I was choosing the appropriate nuts and bolts for the spare...

I have my new Rootlieb sheet metal and the body is being worked on so my question is on the paint and costs. I do want a professional paint job and plan to bring the fenders, running boards etc to a local shop and wondering if anyone has had a recent experience and how much to expect it to cost.
I may wait to bring them the body as it is finished...

Wondering if anyone might have suggestions on what I should look for, I took my '26 coupe out for a longer drive today to test out my new exhaust, and it seems like it's losing power when the engine gets good and hot. The first mile or so I was flying along, probably as fast as I've ever taken the car, and it was running amazing. After a little...

The model T. How do you see it? 46A57EE6-DF6F-4561-A777-C57F8C57F66B.jpeg

So about 3 and a half years ago my wife found a 1926 Touring for sale in the local paper. I went to look at the car and bought it. The guy showed me a video of the car running form the previous year. He said the the Clutch was stuck and that was why the rear wheel was now not moving. As I took a better look at it when I got it home I found that...

New year, new forum software, new Build Thread page for my 24 Touring.

I am confident that this is the year that I'll return the old girl to the road.

Here's the previous two threads from the old forum:

Well it's been a few years since Carston's T Nuthin' Special has been here. Just a quick recap Carston came to me when he was 10 and asked to build a T for himself. Inspired by Mike Robison and friends who the No Dollar Special a T speedster built from his left over parts stash and as little dollars spent as possible. We did the same thing with...

Happy Easter.

I've only driven the car in and out of the garage, about 50 feet forward and 50 back. When backing up, I tend to stop at the garage door and then push it back in because of visibility and close proximity to my other cars. The steering is very tight. I cannot move the steering wheel when the car is sitting still.

Is this normal?...

I spoke with Kevin Hammack the organizer of a currently viable Swap meet that is interested in accommodating a prewar section in this growing swap meet.
I’m facing reality that a swap meet around springtime just dedicated to pre-war may not be viable long term but if there were a swap meet where there was a dedicated area & building for pre-war...

Picked up what I think is a Morton and Brett speedster. Does anyone have a Morton and Brett radiator? Been reading, seems there was a run of Polyform bodies made years back, and there may have also been a run of radiator shells made? Does anyone have any pictures they could share? Were the shells made to fit over a model T radiator (found a...

Wondering what it is like on this bridge? The railings look pretty low, and if the wind is blowing......

The month is 1/3 over, and no posts on this topic yet!

I can't say that I've done anything on our two T's, as they are still on jacks for the winter, but my wonderful wife finished this wall hanging quilt of our 1911 touring that we restored for my birthday at the beginning of the month. She used the picture below it as the inspiration.
