1915 Ford Model T Speedster - Beta version 0.96 (Patreon)

With the advent of the Ford Model T suddenly the market was flooded with affordable automobiles that could be tweaked, modified and adapted to just about any imaginable job. This birthed the local short track scene in the United States as pioneering auto mechanics, tinkerers, and hopeful local racers began to modify their Model Ts for the racetrack. Usually the chassis was lowered four inches, called “underslinging”, the wheelbase slightly extended, and the basic 20 HP motor “hopped up” with a Roof or RAJO Overhead Valve Conversion (OHV), a hot cam, balanced crankshaft with pressure oiling, and side-draft or up-draft carburettors. The stock body was replaced with a sharp looking “Speedster Body” complete with a monocle windshield, and the heavy wooden wheels were replaced with strong and lightweight wire wheels. A complete kit of radiator, hood, floorboards, rear gasoline tank, and body could be purchased for around $100. The Speedster body wasn't just for looks; it made the Model T go faster by making it lighter, cutting down the frontal area, and streamlining it. Just making these changes could add 10 to 15 miles an hour to the top speed.
