'26-'27 T with '28-'29 fenders

Any one have pics of late T's on early A fendered ch***is? early A fenders were MADE for late T's.............pics anyone?

 

They look GREAT! I'd have to go through a stack of old magazines to find photos. Total Performance marketed a 26-27 T roadster with 28-29 fenders, there may be photos on their website.

 

Many 26-27 T roadsters have been built with 28-29 A fenders on A frames.
Many 17-25 T roadsters have been built with 26-27 fenders on A frames too.

 

Here is a 27 T I built with 29 A rear fenders on it. there was a lot more to this than meets the eye---I widened the rear fenders 1 1/2" and the car was channeled 4" , so I had to radically rework the 'Mating" side of the fenders because they no longer bolted up to the flat side of the T body, but actually ran over into the radius where the rear quarters started to curve into the trunklid area---

 

here you go, 26 on a rails and bobbed fenders. all steel.

 

Now that's a fine lookin' roadster, uh, er, Tbucket, uh, er, ah.

 

Folks been doing that a long time. I got everything I need to do that to my 27 in the attic of my shop, just gotta put it all together someday. Makes a nice looking ride.

IMHO if your going to run fenders on a '26-'27 body, you want to use the '28-'29's

 

Do the A fenders provide for more tire clearance to get the car lower? If so do the stock T splash aprons work, or do you need A aprons?

 

Yes.

I don't like the look of A fenders on a T, though. If you gotta have it low, go fenderless.

 

NOTE: There are 1928 AR front fenders and late 28- 1929 front fenders. The inner apron is different and may cause tire rub.

 

If those fenders are bobbed, theyr'e not bobbed very damn much!!!!
