I'm torn...I don't go fast or corner fast anymore...age, a wife, cupholders all tend to slow me down. I won't admit 'growing up' or being responsible are the reasons.

I rode motorcycles and loved the open air feel - so a T is as practical as that, and our wranger was 'naked' all summer (no doors or top). You learn to live with a towel under the seat to wipe dew off the seats and inside the windshield.

I guess you can build a T anyway you way - but all pretty much have sold front axles and hairpins, dont' they? How ungainly is the handling?

Would it be bad to build something like the Munsters had?

Like any ground up build, one has to have a plan on what they want the finished article to look and drive like. There is a market of manufactures over there that build stretched bodies if you require extra leg room to suit your needs. Again with building a frame, you can either build your own or order a rolling frame and body kit from your choice of manufacture. They ain't difficult at all to build when one uses plan simple common sense. I would be all for a Father Son build and the quality time the two of you spend together working on the project would be life lasting memories. I would suggest having a look around some of the threads here and also look at the T Bucket sites found on any good computer before making any decisions.
