In this month's film we catch up with Greg and his Fireball T, an early style build packing a rowdy Model A four banger ready to rattle its way round dirt tracks and drag strips!
I couldn't make these vids without the help of my mates at www.panhead.co.nz and www.classiccover.co.nz. Thanks team!

Really enjoyed this video...no smoke & mirrors, just a straight forward explanation of what you did and how you did it! Bravo !

True words. I have an old 27 chev & and yeah, it is what it is, but you have to drive it. It's not something you jump in and treat like a civic! Love the model t, very cool car

Thats a beauty. We used to run a Model A sprint car on UK circuits, you can get them moving!

Excellent! The same basic philosophy I tried stick to when I built my T speedster. I always ask myself, "what would a kid in the 20s with no money do" After seeing your hotrod I realize there is a lot I can do yet. She's a beauty! Cheers from the US

I like this way of thinking I spent today building up a gearbox shifter gates to take out the slop And changing the length of the shifting arms to create a short shifter

Easily the best T build on the internet. Definitely going to build one like it some day. Great build!

I always wanted to build a T-bucket with a 2.3 OHC ford or a 2.2 turbo Shelby. I've built lots of custom cars and trucks but never got the chance yet to build my dream bucket. Most of my builds were for my friends or are purpose built machinery for my business. Hopefully when I can hand the reigns over to my son I can fulfill my dream

I love seeing Greg’s car in excellent film. I’ve talked with him many times about model t fords, from the opposite side of the planet. My car is coming closer to being done and this is definitely inspiring to keep moving towards the finish line!

You must be a happy man. Super hot rods, a fantastic landscape and authorities that don't restrict you unnecessarily in everything. I am happy for you. Enjoy and be thankful. 👍🤘😎

I've got a '29 Model A speedster in the form of a 1940's hot rod theme with hydraulic brakes and a 1939 transmission with a Mitchel overdrive. It's a blast to drive and I would not change a thing.

From "Up Over". I remember seeing these as a lad of 8-9, in the late '50's. My father took me to a race event in the California desert (sand not the treat). By the time I got into cars, hot rods sported big tires, newer frames, and V-8's. Great job. Narragansett Bay

Awesome video on an awesome build! I've always wanted to build an Old School Kool model T with a Banger & your Fireball T is a perfect example of what's in my mind. Thank you for sharing the story of your build & for now I will have to be happy with my 48 Ford F1.

I've always wanted to build a bucket like this but just don't have the time. Guess I'll just be happy with my 67 belvedere, 77 econoline, or my 79 Ram flatbed

I have a '25 Roadster/Runabout that I want to do up like this, but use a Pinto engine in it, instead of the Model A motor. Most hot rodders say to ditch the Model T frame for the A frame and proclaim I will get the steering pushed through my body in a wreck if I use the stock Model T steering column. They scream about the flex to the T frame as an issue. I want to keep the fenders and running boards on mine, as it makes it easier for me to get into the thing with my rheumatoid arthritis, as well as easier on my wife to ride with me in it. I am not really looking for speed, but just a fun car to enjoy when I wish. Do you have any photos of the actual frontend build or what you did with the rear end? I am totally new to the Model T world but have owned many a daily driver Model A in my past. Thanks for the video. I had never heard the term Gow Job, before and have since joined a facebook group on such. Nice car and nice build. Thanks. ;-)
