Hi Folks, This weekend I'll be laying out the frame on my 20 T Roadster. I'll be shortening the A rear drive-line by 8" or so but, if possible I'd like to see some references of these two vehicles with the rear wheel forward by 8-10 inches or so. Enough, that is to pull the rear wheel forward so that the rim doesn't p*** the rear of the body. Compared to ForEverFour's T I'd like to be ten inches shorter WB (moving the rear axle forward). The Aldrich T I'd like to see a similar move. So, can any of you help me out? I would really appreciate it! Heck, I'll let you take it for a spin at Speed Week this year!
I referenced the wheel lug distance for about 5" doubled it and pushed the rear wheel forward that distance.
Wow, that looks great, you nailed it! I think that'll be the area for me to locate the rear. My car will be lower and I think that'll matter in the overall look/proportions too...
