    I brought home a 1927 Model T coupe this week. I bought it from another HAMBer. It's all apart, It looked loke a pile of sheetmetal in the back of a pick-up truck for the ride home, but it's all mine. A few of the parts have rust holes and the quarters are missing the bottom 2 to 3 inches. Other than that, very solid.

    I'm not sure what direction I'm going to go in with it, but Im thinking I'd like to go fenderless, chop it and put it on a deuce frame.

    I did a quick search for T's on deuce frames, but didn't find anything. If anybody know's of any good threads on T coupes, let me know. I'm also looking for a good source for Model T sheetmetal. Any pictures of cool T coupes would be much appreciated too.

    Thanks.

    I had put mine on a Deuce frame that I had made myself.

    You will have a cool project and the 27's make a pretty cool hot rod too, here is mine, which it is getting a make over at the moment, stay tuned on that.

    i have to agree. if you are looking for ideas and inspiration, that picture jet doc posted is dead on. i put mine on an A frame, but that 32 style frame looks great!
