    Wouldn't work for me at that price..... Just not that much demand for the original T parts, unless you want to give them away. Doubt seriously you could recoup anything substantial selling what you don't need. Just not as popular and price crazy as Deuces or even Model A's. And if it's not what you want anyway, there's a lot of ways to lose that much money without doing near as much work!!!!!!!!

    Well thats one way to look at it. Thank God every type of car is not for everyone!!

    This looks like a pretty solid body however, need an up close and personal look to be sure, but it looks solid from these photos. If that is the case there would not be that much more work than say a Brookville Body if the condition is good.

    As far as recouping some money, that would depend intirely on who the buyer was and HIS interest, no matter what some folks on here have to think about it. There is a buyer for everything, even "T,s" somewhere....

    My 27 T coupe is one of my favoite rods. BUT....you can buy buildable T bodies on Ebay all day long. So they are still available. The most Ive seen a nice T body sell for was around 2k and it was very nice. So buying this one for 8k would be a loosing situation.
    Trust everyone once. Just be cautious of what may be lost.

    Don't be a lazy ass,and cut up a good hole old car,that's way wrong to cut up a car like that one even if it were a lot cheeper.
    Too much old stuff that needs saving and makes good rods.
