1927 ford coupe

Well here is where I'm at so far. Still still a ways to go. Just thought I'd post up a couple of updated pictures.

 

Looks good to me. Just raised the windshield header in mine. Helped visibility a bunch

 

dont worry, even when there finished there not.

looks like its going to be some serious hardware.

 

Nice stance. I think it has a little too much front wheel/tire for my taste (I would go narrower), but overall a great look.

 

Ya, the tires and rims are not going to stay on it. I think either old painted steelies or early wires.

 

serious stance, looks good

 

Looking real good! How much chop? Tell us more about the front axle and brakes.

 

Well the top is chopped about 7 inches. The front axle is old mopar. I bought a 23 t project for the frame to use under the 27. Also has a mopar rear end. As far as brakes go. Nothing set up yet. Will be drum brakes. The steering is rack-n- pinion. Not sure if I'm gonna keep that or change to maybe a vega steering box. It seems to steer hard. Kind of a different front end set up. Also the rear end is set up very differently than I have seen before. Still looking for a trunk lid. Needs a few patch panels too. Hav'nt got the steering colum in yet. Have a chevy tilt. Still deciding on wheather I will use it in there.

lookin good. Im glad i sold the body to you!

 

Looks sharp. Hope mine looks that mean.

 

Hi

Looks good, 7 inch seems a nice chop height.
But why have such a long wheelbase ?

Don't suppose you have another one ???

Steve.

 

Actually I do have another one. A little rough though. No doors. Tops cut off for chop. Used the top for mine but still have the top from the other one. Trunk is welded on.
