In the world of hot-rodding there are few cars that are going to leave as big an impression as this - the 1927 Ford Model T custom simply known as "Double-Trouble". It rides on a custom-built tube chassis that's fabricated from 1.5-inch tube. Is powered by two 4.6-liter modular V8s from Ford with four, count 'em, FOUR superchargers for an approximate power output of around 1,200 hp. It also utilizes the rear-end (inboard disc brakes and all) from an early Jaguar.

These real life custom jobs always remind me of my childhood model building days. Back in the day the model aisle at Woolworth's seemed about 50 yards long.

I have a Rat Fink bobble head next to my computer - built all his models and got his autograph at a Seattle car show about 50 years ago.

Cool, but calling it a 1927 Model T is a bit of a stretch...

childhood model building days.
I did too, in my bedroom. Looking back on it, I don't know how I survived the glue fumes......
