That’s some “Sweet T” probably one of the best builds I’ve seen from that kit. It’s the AMT ‘25 T kit right, I recognize a lot of that kit at least. I like the painted suspension bits too, that’s exactly how the average guy built his Hot Rod on the installment improvement plan as he got the money to make it better a bit at a time! I remember seeing cars like this clear into the mid-seventies, so you got it very accutate!

Very nicely done. It gives me some Kookie Kar vibes from the side profile. Nice details too

You've really captured the look. It's such a clean build. There's just enough chrome and body deco, but not too much. Bravo!

I almost didn't recognize the origins of this T! I thought "hmm, nice kitbash with the AMT '25 T"...then I started assessing individual parts and realized the entire thing is AMT '25 T. Lol! The painted suspension, extremely clean paint and assembly, and cumulative effect of paint, decal, and wiring/plumbing detail makes this possibly the sharpest and most presentable build of the AMT '25 'bucket version I've ever seen. The wire windshield support rods are a much-needed addition, one that most builders overlook entirely. Nice photos too!

So 100% Dittos! The Chrome is on the important parts that needed it! Regarding the Windshield Support Rods; Don Emmons wouldn't have for got them! I think that's the first place I noticed a model Model T with windshield support rods was in Model Car & Science, " Don Emmons Details for Real" one pager. Agreed, those support rods go a long way to adding credibility to a Model T Hot Rod.
