I'm converting a 1926 T roadster to a slide in pick up box. I'm wondering if anyone has tips (experience) for removing the turtle deck/trunk of the roadster body.

Thanks, Mike

Unpolished cast aluminum. Vendors no longer carry the traditional finned style. Full disclosure, it was made from a cast running board step plate. $135 and that includes shipping in the CONUS.

Has anyone ever seen one? Or own one? Have one for sale even?

This is the last in this series, and is perhaps the most unique in overall design having a folded center support wall, vs. the traditional vertical. The six center holes are spade-shaped vs. oval or circular. The lugs are formed from semi circular designs rather than the previous curved step outs.

An original round gas tank. This was stored in dry storage in an attic in the 1960's Very nice no rust out or pin holes. This has the off center drain so it's not an early 12. It had a brass sediment bulb so definitely 12-15, but can be used all the way up to 1920.

Here is the 3rd major version of the Model T/TT transmission Clutch Drum. Noticeably thicker around perimeter, with only 2 holes, vs. the previous 6. While researching this drum, I have found photos showing the Ford script to be on the front side as well as the back side.

Hello everyone,
