Custom 1924 Ford Track Speedster

Noted East Cpast hot rod builder, Richie Willett, crafted this striking speedster using rare original speed equipment and a highly-modified Ford Model T touring car body mounted on a custom fabricated chassis. Designed in an art deco style, it is powered by a specially prepared 1933 Ford Model C four-cylinder engine equipped with dual Winfield carburetors. Other creative touches include a custom-engineered rear suspension and inboard rear brakes to reduce weight and improve handling.
