made a decklid for my T

Its a lot of work trying to juggle two projects, work a job and take care of my 3 boys, but it sure is a hell of a lot of fun. Here is the latest addition made for my T. The louvers were punched for free by a small business owner I met through my work, They make some heavy equipment type stuff and just happen to have a press all set up. What do you think? Made it a little different dimensions than I had originally planned(narrower and longer) but I think it is actually gonna look better that way when it is installed and the body is modified.

looks good to me.

 

ya gotta love making something from nothing looks kool man

 

gotto love free . are you just going to weld it to the old lid ??

 

No the body is a wanna be (tupperware) I have to add some material on each side of the existing opening about 6 inches so that the lid will fit right, but after looking it over I think that the longer skinnier lid will have a better look and fit better than one the original size. Just going to use the gl*** lid that I cut out for the material so I will already have the correct shape. Could just make a whole new lid but what fun is that when I can use what I have and modify.

Looks sweet!

 

I think i might end up making a lid too.. the 26/27 coupe lids seem to be scarce and usually go for too much when you find em.. i'd pay a few bucks for a nice one but the ones I find are ****ty for the money..

nice job
