    well, the engine, rear, electrics, etc. came out of a 76 montecarlo. the frame is homebuilt, the engine is a 305, dual quads. the rear was modified to look like a quick change. the body is the extended glass version. the front end came out of a ford econoline van. since these pics were taken, we'ev changed the caps to 49'ford caps, and changed the steering wheel with a sprint car wheel. anything else you wanna know, just holler.

    Cool! It just needs the wood beneath the turtledeck to look a lot like my plan. (oh, well, and wire wheels, different paint and an oil bath aircleaner...)

    That's a good looking T
    Out of a sea of pickup bed Ts It's refreshing to see a turtle deck. Always my preferance.

    What's the front axle from and do you have any closeups of how it's suspended?

    the font end is out of a ford enconoline. the leaf spring actually sits behind the axle it self, and it has a set of batwings that hang off the front end of the frame. hope that helps. ill try to put up some pics of it later
