This 1926 Ford Model T Roadster Hot Rod is a compact, old-school street rod built around one of hot rodding’s most recognizable early-Ford shapes. Showing approximately 5,979 miles, it combines a lightweight roadster body with V8 power, an automatic transmission, and a distinctly traditional custom presentation. The black exterior is contrasted by purple pinstriping and flame graphics, while extensive chrome and polished engine hardware gives the exposed powerplant plenty of visual impact. With its staggered wheel setup, side-exit exhaust, custom aluminum dashboard, and vivid purple accents, this Model T delivers the stripped-down, mechanical personality enthusiasts expect from a classic hot rod.
Exterior and Interior
The exterior of this 1926 Ford Model T Roadster Hot Rod is black and features purple pinstriping and flame graphics that add a period-inspired custom touch to its minimalist roadster profile. A polished triple-butterfly air scoop rises prominently above the engine, complemented by chrome valve covers, tubular exhaust headers, fully chromed side-exit exhaust pipes, and additional chrome engine detailing. A polished aluminum radiator is paired with a custom purple grille insert, while the chrome windshield frame and chrome headlights continue the brightwork theme. Aftermarket chrome wheels with a staggered wheel and tire setup complete the stance, giving the car a purposeful hot rod look from every angle. The interior of this 1926 Ford Model T Roadster Hot Rod is gray and continues the custom-built character seen outside. The cabin features a custom aluminum dashboard fitted with aftermarket instrumentation, along with a Formula leather-wrapped steering wheel and a floor-mounted automatic shifter. Purple accent carpeting ties the interior into the exterior graphics, while the reupholstered seating and simplified open-cockpit layout keep the focus firmly on the traditional hot rod driving experience.
Engine
Power comes from a 327ci V8 (from 68' C3 Corvette) fed by a 4-barrel carburetor and paired with a 3-speed automatic transmission driving the rear wheels. The engine bay is one of the visual centerpieces of the build, featuring a polished triple-butterfly air scoop, chrome valve covers, chrome tubular headers, extensive chrome detailing, and a polished aluminum radiator. Even components such as the flywheel and starter receive chrome treatment, reinforcing the car’s show-oriented presentation. With the lightweight Model T roadster format, V8 power, rear-wheel drive, and exposed mechanical hardware, this build follows the classic formula that helped define traditional American hot rodding.
