I think there are already threads on this topic; use the search option at the top of the page. The last time this topic came up I searchd for a set of plans I knew I had from Petersen's HOT ROD Year Book No. 13 but could not find them. Since that time I have found them and will send a copy of the 32 page manuscript to you if you send me your surface mail address. However you should check out the site by Spirit Industries, they offer a very simple low cost kit for T-rods. Then there is TCI and of course Total Performance as advertised on this page. In addition Speedway has some kits or at least partial kits. I have not built a T but I am in the process of building a '29 roadster from available parts so I think I can make a few comments. It will probably be more complicated than you think when you get into the details so you should take a good hard look at the kits from Total Performance and Spirit Industries. I nearly bought into the kit from Spirit Industries because it looks to be the simplest to me, but my sinus condition argues against a totally open car and I selected a Model-A roadster so I could have a more enclosed top. Good Luck.

I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
