27 roadster ideas ?

Here are some you might like,...

 

Frank's ImMACKulate T is bar none the best all time 26-7 T-ster ever,
the other lil track nosed in this post that is sitting just a lil too low for my taste is also a killer lil gow job.
Todd's, Keith built lil gow job is in there as well, I remember when it was going together, thought then, "Very Nice Car!!!!" still do.
Now Eric, I have a hankering toward earlier models,such as Bob Atol's lil flatty powered hottie=He's owned it for nearly 65 yrs.
Then there is of course my own lil banger powered version 27 that is Muroc/El Mirage period perfect-Nothing too out of the ordinary which IMHO is one of the ways that we as traditonal car people like to see em.
Good luck on the build & post some pics!

 

Kiwi Kev,
This ****er is Spot On!!!!! I really like this version as well!!!!Very nice early 50's Hop Up!!!!
Thanks for posting this one!!!!!

 

Last ones, I promise,.... a friend of mine Jon is building these new steel 27 bodies, and aluminum flatheads,.... and 32 frame rails.
The bodies are a little larger proportianitly than stock to fit on a stock Deuce frame, and you can fit two people in them comfortably,...

 

Here's a couple of mine.

 

Here you go, just happen to be reading Hot Rod June 1952. Would be nice to see more of these. They can look pretty Damn good!

Navarro's T is one of my all time favorite Hot Rods!! I am so glad it didn't get over restored. Wish I had a pic handy.

 

Here´s one shot from Barneys 27. It´s my favourite 27 T Roadster

 

Here's a few shots of mine. Dave

 

Here's how I wanted to do one...steel body, closed hood, mild Model A banger mill, lakes style.

 

Awesome thread.

The Austin Brothers T was a favorite back east:

Just another 27...

 

i really like eyeballs t its fairly straight forward and one hell of a car to ride in.

dakotas mod is also one of my favarites. its a little difrent now than in this pic and he has posted beter ones here

 

Kansas Chicken Barn Sytle!


And now running around Denver, CO



..........Let's see what you have Eric!!!

 

Ok so I'm a little premature,it just means I'm excited.
Picking the naked body up this coming week.
Stuck a 34 crossmember into the 32 rails.
Really got my juices flowing.

Ah,I need a smoke ..
(Pictures soon)

 

this is a swedish built one,not a roadster though,but it has a really cool style that appeals to me

 

from behind

 

Found a couple more...
The one with the side pipes is pretty cool.(not the tires)

 

Great thread! I got a bunch of good ideas. Here's mine.





It Westcott's body(ducking) it will never be a traditional car but I am going for traditionally inspired.

Wanna bring the back end down and also lower the radiator in the frame... it's up too high.

I'm also up for suggestions

 

How about a different grille shell? And move the axle forward.

 

Cool! looks great and like you have been busy. Great to see the flatty still there

 

Here's a pic of Navarro's car resting comfortably in the NHRA museum

 

I was thinking about moving the axle forward... car is a little "twitchy" at freeway speeds plus there's an issue with the frame that I need to repair. Figured I'd do it at the same time.

 

I have a question.I'm getting the front half of a 27 roadster.Will add a turtle deck when I find one. But I won't know where the center of the wheel wells will be.So where does the firewall go on a 32 frame in relation to the 32 firewall holes?
