I have just purchased a 1926 Model T pickup. It is in need of a new roof. Does anyone have a resource for a wood kit for this vehicle?
Thanks,

Re: roof kit
You should start with the usual vendors, Langs Old Car Parts is a good one. If you are new to model T's get a Ford Service Manual, and find a local Model T club. Post a pictue of your car, it is not unusual to have the year and body misidentified, and that will result in the wrong parts being acquired.

Re: roof kit
From your description, do you have a closed body installed on your T? Did you post photos of it on one of the Model T Facebook pages?
I know the voices aren't real but damn they have some good ideas!

Re: roof kit
Do you have a picture of the Model T you bought? T pickups had a fold down top with top bows and a canvas type material for the top. The forum can identify what you have with a picture.

I've had good experiences with Classic Wood Products and Snyders Antique Auto for wood kits.
