Big Block T Bucket Roadster

Ford Model T 1971 Description

Big Block T Bucket Roadster.
Title is pre 1976 WI homebuilt, which is a legal title for this vehicle allowing it to operate on any highway in any state, as opposed to a 1927 Model T title which is not legal. This vehicle resembles a 27 T but is not.I've owned this car for 35 years and have worked on it over the years and it is finally close to being completed. I'm in the final stages of wiring which is why door panels are not fastened on top, as all wiring goes behind both panels from fuse box under seat to dash and elsewhere on the car.Car runs great. Starts stops and drives nice and goes through the gears. I'm in the process of retiring and that is why I'm awlling the car.
