I'm not much of a computer guy so I don't post much of what I can do. A friend talked me into this! and my wife is printing this as I speak. The '34 I'm building for my wife. Most of the rear panel from the belt line down is from a '35 slant back (good guess guys ). Above the belt line is '37 Ford with the rear window cut out and '34 replaced. The lower corners are also '37 Ford. These pieces were from rough field cars and the '35 panel was already cut off and laying in the weeds without side corners. I taped some cardboard on to show where I had to add metal. The T Coupe is mine and I built it about 6 years ago. The motor is 1962 Chevy ll . Bet most of you guys already knew that. Thanks again Mike

 

I will have to try to upload pictures again as unfortunately they came up as errors.

 

Thats really neat. I like your T also

 

I’m not into customs, but I don’t see this as a custom. I’d call it a tastefully modified Sedan!
Cool as hell. It looks like it could’ve been an OEM design.

 

Very cool!

 

Dirt T: There is a guy on here and I think his name is Dave McLelland. He built a car similar to what your doing. It's sort of a model 40 400, slant back like a '33 vicki etc. Try looking him up.

 

@a dirt t, thanks for expanding on the other Thread adding the commentary, it really helps everything come together, I am going to say welcome to the Hamb...tell us, have you been following this place since 2013 and if so did anything here influence the journeys you've embarked on?...

 

I was actually doing an inspiration on your 4Dr Vicky lowering the lid a bit...no pressure...I was noting the molding being 35 meeting 34 and thinking that must have been quite a challenge for you...it sure was for me in PhotoShop...Your new pics make it clearer about what you did...

 

On the topic of chopping the '34 I like chopped cars and currently own 2- the T. Coupe and a 1948 Chev Coupe that I lowered over 20 years ago. Others that I have chopped include: 33 Ford Victoria, 34 Ford 2 dr, 35 chev 2 dr., 37 Ford Coupe, 48 Chev. pickup, 50 Ford Coupe. However I'm going to leave the roof on the 34 Slant Back alone so it might look a bit more like Ford could have built this body style.

 

Just create a good believable backstory, & then tell everyone that you couldn't find enough oem parts to restore it, so you rodded it instead... ! & unlike photochop, steel is real = believing, right... ? "I mean, it's right there in front of your own personal lyin' eyes"... .
