Model T Chassis

[B0b_E]

Anybody know where I can find a technical, mechanical, or dimensional drawing for a model t frame? I know it's a simple ladder frame I'd just like a starting point.
Thanks

Looks good!

Wouldn't happen to know where to find the same deal for the body would ya?

What year body? There were many different styles, and various years were different also.

I guess I'm showing my classic car ignorance here...The picture I was looking at that got the gears in my head spinning was a 1922 model t truck. But I could brainstorm off of just about anything even a few simple measurements off a fiberglass t bucket

I'll be heading to the shop in a little while and can take some measurements and a couple of side shots of my T bucket body, if you would like. Specifically, what dimensions are you looking for?

I consider this information a MUST-HAVE for anyone considering building a T......

Don, If I'd have checked back sooner I would of' taken you up on that offer, but I gotta ways to go before I need to worry about that. I just thought there might be a web site with a nice technical drawing.

And another nice link.

Bob: Well, these certainly aren't technical, but I made some rough drawings for you with measurements off of my '23 T body. Hope these give you some info, anyway.


I won't be putting Brians fancy cad machine out of business anytime soon.

Thats awesome!

Bob: And here is a profile picture of a T bucket body, in case this will help too. The frame is also a typical, although crappy, T bucket frame. (I bought this setup on ebay and ended up cutting up the frame to make a shop table out of it.)
