Bringing in the hay with my 1926 Ford TT 1 ton truck. The truck has a New Zealand 'Colonial' built cab and deck.

Ford Model t speedster race car {ReBUILDING HISTORY the series}
From stock the modifications to this car start with the engine, where it has been fitted with a Ricardo aftermarket head, Bosch front plate distributor, counter balanced crank, aluminum pistons, and fitted with a period correct updraft carb, all together it pumps out around a whopping 30-40 hp.
The modifications to the frame include
-Lowering the car about 5 inches without dropping the front axle.
-Setting the engine and driver, back around 6 inches. This is done to change the look of the car as well as help with weight distribution.
-Also notice the period correct friction shocks on all four corners
As for the gearing ,the rear axle has been swapped out for an original Hall-Scott two speed axle that has been stuffed with 3 to 1 gears .
-Other than that I'm still running the original two speed transmission.
Setup as a race car it is not uncommon for model T's to hit speeds upwards of 65.

Huge thanks to Mel Stultz, The Oilers Car Club for driving this event, extra thanks to the people of Allenhurst (esp. the mayor, the chief of police and the fire department), the guys making the porkroll sandwiches (which cured the night before's pre race party, hangover) and the NJ State Police (who were very cool about it all).
From what I could tell there must have been 2,000- 3,000 people there it ran from 10am until late afternoon. The turn out and weather was amazing. It was a day I won't forget in a while.
The attached video is just the footage I picked up with my gopro2 (sorry the audio is so bad, it was in the waterproof case).
Music is Fu Manchu, Hell on Wheels and King of the Road (just happened to be listening to it and it seemed to fit)

----------------------------------------------------
I imported my 1925 Ford Model T from the USA, not far from Detroit, Michigan where it was built.
The Model T was manufactured between 1908 and 1927, and was know by various names including Tin Lizzie, Flivver, T‑Model Ford, or just 'T'.
The Model T set 1908 as the historic year that the automobile became popular. It is generally regarded as the first affordable automobile, the car that opened travel to the common middle-class American; some of this was because of Ford's innovations, including assembly line production instead of individual hand crafting.
On May 26, 1927, Henry Ford watched the 15 millionth Model T Ford roll off the assembly line at his factory in Highland Park, Michigan.
