This 1913 Ford Model T Speedster was a stripped down hot rod that sported an air splitting custom radiator by the Livingston Radiator company of New York... one of the few pieces Henry Ford didn't make in house. It looks like it would be a whole lot of fun to drive if you don't have a pre-existing cardiac issue.

A great model (except for those crazy-thick spokes). I remember buying this decades ago (because it was so unique) yet I was unaware of the story behind it. I quickly educated myself and found the entire history fascinating. 

That after-market "high performance" radiator is beautifully replicated here.
