Unless you are firmly entrenched in having a period correct "T" made from original parts. there are reproduction parts for almost every component of the 't' except for the drive train that is. But if you can find the cowl to use then anything you do to it no matter how radical you go it will still be an authentic model T just highly modified.
Once a friend of mine and I were going to build a pair of 32 model A boa tailed speedsters he had the cowls and I had 4 of K5 international hoods we were going to use as the boat tails but he passed away long before we got a chance to put our plan to action.
