I put 6.50 x 16" Chev rims and tyres on my first T, just like the ones in the first photo. It was almost impossible to control on loose dirt roads.By the time the Ford steering gear would react to correction, it was usually time to correct the other way! :o

The top photo of the cut down '24-25 Coupe is interesting.
How many ways can you change a T?
When did I do that?

That feller with the cee-gar looks mighty pleased with himself, and the "custom convertible " he's wrought from that coupe. Perhaps the conversion was his rebelling at feeling cramped in the coupe ?

Car in the background indicates the photo is from the 50s.
Get a horse !

Is that the tail of a crashed airplane sticking up in the center background in picture 4? The cars are neat, but something seems to be going on in the background.

Wow! You're right! It crashed nearly straight down through the roof right in the corner of the building. Some debris from the biplane wings can be seen near the edge of the roof, and the remains of the tail and fuselage.
