You guys should take that model a body off of that frame and put the body down on a Ford ranger truck frame with 5 lug wheels and drop a small block v8 Ford engine
he did ruin it. a classic car that there are so few of and he preaches about taking them apart and yet turns around and does it himself. dont preach about it and then go and do it. yourself.
@@matthewjohnston1400 professional body man or not.... there are not many of these cars left and to restore it back to original is how they should do it. not turn it in to a rat rod. there are cars in worse condition that could be used for a rat rod. not one that needs minimal body work to make it look good again.
I will cry when the kids start going off to college. I'm praying they all choose to go close to home so they will still be able to keep making the family videos. Praying for your health and safety always
My wife and I celebrated our 33rd Anniversary today, and as part of it, we watched your beautiful family while chatting with ours. Love watching ya'll!
Picking a direction is a tough one, if it were mine I’d probably go a more traditional route. I like a flathead but a Y Block or old school hemi would be cool too. (Just no small block Chevy that’s super lame) I think one of the smartest things you could do is go with an aftermarket complete chassis kit. Not only do you save a lot of time it’s safer with its modern components/materials plus your suspension geometry is all figured out and it’s a proven concept. At the end of the day it’s probably cheaper as well. With your following it wouldn’t surprise me if contacted Speedway Motors you could get some kind of partnership with them. They have everything you to build one of those.
I am in the final steps to getting my ‘27 T Coupe Hot Rod road ready. I purchased a Speedy Motors frame kit, it fits perfectly. It has several different motor/trans combos. As well as front spindle selection, brake combo, front axle, steering box and 4 link suspension. It makes for smooth driving vehicle. Worth the money, I have driven a few rat rods and they are a hand full.
@54:00 I learned this lesson working on my 1970 VW Bus. Laying on the concrete garage floor, I made contact with a wrench between the starter and chassis. Not only did I get an electrical shock, but the starter made the van move!!!
I like watching your videos, teaching your kids about vehicles and spending time with them is awesome. I also like even though the channel is growing still act the same.
Just did three oil changes and swapping brake pads. Today’s been maintenance day. Yesterday surprised-ish mom with her early Christmas gift of a set of tires on her jeep. She needed it bad and her and dad couldn’t afford it right now. Finally splurged and bought a good oil drain pan and idk how I didn’t buy one before
Interestingly My mom(100) a month ago, got her license at 14.. she had to make her own plate. Her Dad had a Pontiac,Hudson dealership. This was in Nova Scotia Canada.
You guys are great! Such a treasure as a family doing this. You both are great parents and always have great content no matter what you all are doing. Making it fun! Great job!
Agreed. It survived this long and deserved to be brought back to life as is scars and all. It’s his and he can do whatever he wants. I had to pass on this one tho, first one ever.
No power here for 4 days and only 1 bar of cell service, BUT miraculously I am just now able to stream your video from RUclips! What a gift! Have not been able to get RUclips for days@
I was so interested in motors and vehicles when I was a teenager and didn’t have a dad to teach me anything. Ralphie an your kids are very lucky, your a great father figure to them. I wish I had someone to teach me everything you’ve taught your kids.
You are half-way to a TROG build - find a running Model A or flat head, add some pre war go fast parts, fix the rust and dust in the patches, hand paint some numbers of the doors, and take her up to Wildwood and race it on the beach! it would be a quick, inexpensive, period build that will get a lot of attention.
Never seen y'all smoke but my dad used an old piston like that as an ashtray on his office desk, in the garage. It was neat. Just talking out loud . Love yuns videos, and it's awesome how you are raising them youngens.
Beware the cleaning process. Dalton from Pole Barn Garage ended up in the hospital after cleaning a particularly dirty vehicle from breathing the dust off and airborne materials.
I know one RUclipsr, a SUPER nice fellow. His channel is Cutworm59. He almost died from all the years of dust and chemicals. He had to have a liver transplant. He's doing much better now, but still feeling the effects. Such a shame.
Aftermarket frame for sure. As for power, maybe try to find an all aluminum motor? Something that can rev too the moon. There are so many choices now. Good luck and thanks for sharing.
Aftermarket chassis with modern steering, brakes and suspension, manual turbo coupe powertrain with a 9 inch Ford rear, Painless wiring kit, bodywork and high gloss black paint with flames for that old school look with the turbo 4. This will be a fun car.
You could give Ralphie a ton of welding experience boxing and laddering those frame rails. And I would love to see you build a hi perf Flathead V8. Just seems like the right thing to do. Jus my opinion of course.
You guys sure work great together? That was a whole lot of work taking that Model t apart . It sure looks bare now.. Great job you guys.. Looking good.. You guys are my number one RUclips channel... Again? A great job until I see you in the next video.👍🙂🙏🏻
If you're going to replace the canvas roof what you do is to fix the canvas and secure the edges. Then you totally soak the canvas with water and paint the canvas with mineral based lacquer while it's still wet. Once the paint and the canvas has dried, it will have shrunk to a tight fit. It's the way the old railway carriages were done as well a lot of old wooden boats. Just FYI
I wouldn't cut it up I put it back together and let it be a car that one of your kids could drive drive they would look cool going to school and that. Great show guys God bless the whole family have a blessed Thanksgiving. 👍👍👍👍
Josh! What are you feeding those kids! They're all shooting up overnight! Ralph is nearly as tall as you and he's just getting started. Love your family. ❤
The mother of my girl friend back in the day told me a story from when she was a kid. She was riding in the rumble seat on a dirt road when she said they passed one of the wheels of the car that had come of as they were driving along.
Another great show. Can’t wait to see what you do next to the old car. Glad to see all the animals. Just love you all. Have a blessed week. Stay well Ralphie 🥰
This was a VERY interesting episode! This is the roots of the car culture in America! Kids are learning things not pondered by many in 100 years. What a wholesome thing for a family to do! Wah is emerging as the new star of this channel, she just plunges in doing dirty rough jobs without hesitation--very admirable, but please give her some protective gloves, I'd hate her hands to start looking like an old mechanic's hands.
I vote for a 4-cyl motor, maybe a Pinto motor but it could be interesting to use a later Japanese motor from an 80s Datsun or even a Honda. It seems too radical, but remember the early rodders wanted an Offenhauser engine with all the hi-tech features--if they had a modern Honda engine they'd be using that for sure. Use a junkyard T5 trans, banjo rear end please!
Two different engine style combos: 1.) 427 BBC twin turbo on MS3 Pro EVO+ 2.) that new gm 4 cylinder with a small turbo that makes about 280 HP and 300 ft lbs of donkeys. Two different looks. Slam either with big wheels.
My old craftsman tool set came with a set of 5 square drive sockets, where they look like 8 sided sockets. I use them for random stuff, where regular sockets don’t work, but never worked on an actual square nut. The square drive sockets probably used to be really common in mechanics sets. And I know speedway sells model T frames, fully boxed rails, for pretty cheap, like $500. But you have to do all the mounts and measuring yourself.
Any color you want as long as it’s black only applies to the really old model T’s. This was due to the black paint would dry faster and it held up better. A few years into production paint technology advanced enough that they were offered in quite a few different colors. Red is completely possible as an original color. I learned this when I went to the Henry Ford museum myself standing right next to the 15 millionth model T, there was an employee there giving information about it. He was also explaining how stuff worked using the cut away in the same building.
Still my favorite channel on RUclips! From family to content, it's a moment of peace and relaxation during my otherwise hectic day. Thanks Sleeperdude Family.
@25:45 thru @26:05,, Thank you Josh. Keeping that old body as it always has been is awesome. A few period correct mods would be OK but Henry had a good idea when these rolled off the assembly line.
1:03:54 that horn probably works fine. What I bet is going on is dirty contacts on the inside. Luckily from what I see in the video, it can be opened up so you can probably easily fix it!
My Grandmother learned to drive in a Model T at eight years old sometime around 1920. My great Grandfather bought it new in Sacramento CA and drove it home 35 miles, at the time there wasn't a highway to where they lived so it was all dirt roads.
Josh I'm sure you've seen Jacob's (Puddin's Fab Shop) Model A and I like the way he did his. The way he brought it more into the modern era but kept its outer appearance fairly close to stock. At least more so than many do when they're rodding one. As always, thanks for letting us tag along with y'all and I pray that you guys & anyone reading this in the comments has a very Happy Thanksgiving! Many thoughts and prayers for safe travels & many memories and/or traditions made! God bless you all! ~ Scott 💙🙏🏼
This model T has became one of favorite builds from you . I'd love to see a 2.3 turbo engine build with a 5 sp ... specially in this that'd be cool . So many people cut them and put v8's in them I'm a fan of something different.
@@SleeperdudeJosh every pic you showed as the ones you like have a chopped roof. I think if you don’t chop the roof it will be like sitting in a low fish tank or green house. That’s just a lot of tall glass…
My preference would be a turbocharged 2.3L with a 5-speed and an aftermarket chassis. Of course, it would also need improved front suspension and a 9-inch out back.
Those fenders have more stress cracks than parents with teenagers! I saw a turtle deck track racer T at back to the 50s a couple decades ago that had a 4 cylinder hemi from a late 70s toyota? in it. Looked and sounded so unique. Can't wait to see more of this build!
I really like it without the fenders. It looks really cool. I would lower it too, get some wider wheels and put a 4-cyl to make it a daily driver. Maybe turbo, but a small one just for that extra kick. But as always, great content, great family, lots of talent!
If you could find a flathead, That is the way I would go. I grew up in the flathead era. My first car was a 1936 Ford 5 window coupe with a rumble seat. I used a 1942 ford truck engine bored and had Denver truck heads, because it raised the compression ratio. Drove that car for 2 years. Then purchased a 1951 Ford 2 door sedan. Have a great day.
Hey Josh, two things. My local true value hardware store carries square head nuts, brand new. Also, I have a clean Ford 272 Y-block sitting in my shop. It needs to be bored out due to scoring in cylinder 3. That could make it a 292. I tore it down, cleaned it, and put it back together. It was running when I took it back out. Let me know if you are interested.

You need to look for an old fighter/bomber drop tank and make a racer out of it...
What would be neat is to put the falcon 200ci engine and tranny in it.
You guys should take that model a body off of that frame and put the body down on a Ford ranger truck frame with 5 lug wheels and drop a small block v8 Ford engine
1:09:10 hot rod
28:44 Better not take a 32 kilogram weight and swing it on camera, and that headlights are funny
Cue the “you ruined it” people
“Hey Ma Puddin just told Sleeperdude to ruin his museum piece Ford”!!😅 Just kidding I’d love to see you guys do a video together cruising your cars.
no he 's building it not just buying it like you did
he did ruin it. a classic car that there are so few of and he preaches about taking them apart and yet turns around and does it himself. dont preach about it and then go and do it. yourself.

Poor Squeeze. trying to keep both parents happy with her footwear choices!! 🤣
🤣
This family has once again captivated my senses for another hour or so. I hope y'all know how much I appreciate what you do. One great family.
I’ve got a Blower manifold for a flathead ford laying around my shop. Will have to look for it.
Well said!

Who needs college when you have a foundation like this?
Yea old o wens gonna miss it
My wife and I celebrated our 33rd Anniversary today, and as part of it, we watched your beautiful family while chatting with ours. Love watching ya'll!
@@SamWichmaker congratulations
Congratulations!
Aftermarket chassis with an old school V8 flathead would be super cool!
Definitely a flathead would suit this car just fine.

Speedway has everything you need ready to bolt in. Big thumbs up here!
It’s crazy how entertaining you can be while keeping it real.
Thank you
That is why this is my favorite channel
I see the fake/O.F. profiles are everywhere
@@itsmephil2255 what is o.f profiles ?
You should think about finding an f150 or a mustang recked and get you a cheap coyote set up@Sleeperdude

I'd think that the improved suspension alone would make a huge difference, plus the added safety of modern brakes.
Squeeze is wearing one flipflop and one crock. Real traits of a true artist
And different socks, a true artists’ spirit. Who said it ain’t easy being Squeezy
Almost 100 that’s hard to believe. Nothing made in this day and age will be as good as that in a hundred year’s awesome car.
For sure 👍
I'll bet his original cars lasting this long was nowhere in Henry Fords vision.
I totally forgot it's Sleeperdude Saturday ... get in there! Shout out from the U.K. once again - thanks for all the amazing videos!
Awesome thank you

She’s very smart
We have had several Yorkies, so Scooter is our favorite. Ellie is super sweet, though.
Ellie is one of the unsung stars of the channel. What a sweetie!
You guys are great! Such a treasure as a family doing this. You both are great parents and always have great content no matter what you all are doing. Making it fun! Great job!
Honestly, it's nice enough to return to stock. I'd find another one to hack up and customize.

Scott at Cold War Motors up in Canada knows a lot about model T's. He owns one that he has "restored" and helps with a fun model T race every year.
Ok thanks
Merlin from Merlin's Old School Garage knows alot about early Fords.
Would be my suggestion also, in fact, I messaged him before on his Facebook page about it.
I was so interested in motors and vehicles when I was a teenager and didn’t have a dad to teach me anything. Ralphie an your kids are very lucky, your a great father figure to them. I wish I had someone to teach me everything you’ve taught your kids.

Good Idea, my thoughts exactly if he's going for the Post War Racer look. even rebuild the 4-cylinder and Race it at the TROG event in Wildwood NJ. 👍
That's pretty cool when you can use a model T wrench to work on your model T 😀 🤘🏼🇺🇲
You got that right!
Making Saturday's Great Again!!
Thanks
I worked in a bolt factory back in the late 80s called Cardinal fasteners and we were still making some square nuts.
Never seen y'all smoke but my dad used an old piston like that as an ashtray on his office desk, in the garage. It was neat. Just talking out loud . Love yuns videos, and it's awesome how you are raising them youngens.
Sleeperdude and a UT Vols game at the same time. Thankful for Attention Deficit Disorder.
That’s funny
I'd like to see you make it pretty and paint it up with the flames like the guys used to do in the 50s.
👍
I second the nice paint with old school flames.
The "old school" flames didn't get popular til the seventies--and very cliche'd. Please, no flames!
Beware the cleaning process. Dalton from Pole Barn Garage ended up in the hospital after cleaning a particularly dirty vehicle from breathing the dust off and airborne materials.
Yep
Everything got lead paint of that era known 3 body tech dye from painting lacquer show cars burnt there brains
@@imtonedeaf1 mouse and rat droppings do a lot of damage also.

A great job until I see you in the next video.👍🙂🙏🏻
Looking forward to seeing more of this car. I like the idea of leaving the top tall. This is going to be very interesting.
If you're going to replace the canvas roof what you do is to fix the canvas and secure the edges.

I've found if you hook a drill up to the hood pins you can get them out a lot easier. A little PB Blaster don't hurt either
My preference would be a turbocharged 2.3L with a 5-speed and an aftermarket chassis.
Of course, it would also need improved front suspension and a 9-inch out back.

Love the no fender look! Just looks sooo cool!
Thanks for another good one Sleeperdude family! Will definitely be interesting to see what direction you take with this ol' T!
Tell Wawa she needs to keep her eyes covered in safety glasses . You well know the rust in eyes not good .

I used a 1942 ford truck engine bored and had Denver truck heads, because it raised the compression ratio. Drove that car for 2 years. Then purchased a 1951 Ford 2 door sedan. Have a great day.
Hey Josh, two things. My local true value hardware store carries square head nuts, brand new. Also, I have a clean Ford 272 Y-block sitting in my shop. It needs to be bored out due to scoring in cylinder 3. That could make it a 292. I tore it down, cleaned it, and put it back together. It was running when I took it back out. Let me know if you are interested.
