if you are looking for the implementation, the ftp address for the scheme
repository is correct; you can also get there from
http://www.cs.indiana.edu/scheme-repository/imp.html
if you'd like reading material, see
[ReA82] Jonathan A. Rees and Norman I. Adams, T: A Dialect of Lisp
or, LAMBDA: The Ultimate Software Tool, Conference Record of
the 1982 ACM Symposium on Lisp and Functional Programming,
1982, 114-122.
[RAM84] Jonathan A. Rees, Norman I. Adams and James R. Meehan, The T
manual, fourth edition, Yale University Computer Science
Department, January 1984
there was also a good book by Slade: "T Programming Language: A Dialect
of Lisp" but i cannot remember the publisher, year. alibris may be able
to find you a copy.

For online reading material I would taking a look at my Scheme bibliography:
http://library.readscheme.org. Among fairly recent additions, there is an
article by Olin Shivers on the history of T (available from Paul Graham's
web
site), and a PDF copy of the T manual. References (and sometimes links to
online copies) for the older T-related publications mentioned by Ozan
and others are included as well.
Also, from an implementation perspective, I strongly recommend David Kranz's
classic thesis on the Orbit compiler. (A link to an online copy is in the
bibliography
as well.)
