Re: Model T Racer
Looks like a neat car! I wonder how fast it can go, and stop. 

Just a 20 year old who listens to 40 year old music, works on 75 year old airplanes and drives 100 year old cars.

Re: Model T Racer
Sure looks like a beautiful Faultless racer with Roof Liberty 8 cylinder head. Would love to see and hear it zooming down the road…

Re: Model T Racer
It's great to see that distinct Faultless nose on the car.
On the actual race cars many were changed out to regular T rad shells when
damaged in action. Mine had been changed out but kept with the car through its life.
They are made in 6 or 7 pieces and then leaded together.

Re: Model T Racer
The Liberty 8 head is easy to identify because the rocker stands are cast into the top of the head casting and are not removeable. Looks like a real authentic car. thanks for sharing

Great looking racer. I agree, it would be good to hear and see it running.

Re: Model T Racer
Great car with great parts. I’m betting you could scrounge for years and not come up with a half dozen of those exhaust manifolds.
