Model T Speedster
Posted: Tue Jul 08, 2025 12:45 pm
I’m helping an Indianapolis area gentleman sell his Hill Climb Speedster. Don is an accomplished machinist and everything he built for this car was to keep it as light weight as possible. It’s built for the Newport Hill Climb in Newport Indiana. He said it weights around 800 lbs. I’m sure it could be converted for other uses as well.
He recently built an early aluminum hogs head to allow a starter to be mounted on it which is why the car is currently disassembled.
The Model T engine has a Model A crank, Model A cam, Buick V6 pistons, Weber carburetor, aluminum head. The body and radiator are aluminum along with many of the other components.
I’m posting some pictures. More will be available by request. Contact me through the Forum if interested for Don’s phone number. He has countless hours in this project as you can well imagine. He’s asking $18,000. Thanks for looking.
