    Man can i make a suggestion... I suggest this on every T build on here... chop that header down to 1".. it'll look so much better when the windshield gl*** lines up better with the door gl***. I ran a 2" header but once I installed the windshield, that put another 1" in the mix and messed it up. The top of the windshield gl*** is much lower than the door gl***, looks weird!!!

    Chaddillac, most definately, I was looking at that last week.. I'm going to chop off the excess to match, the windshield with the side windows as best I can. I thought I would like the 'eyebrow' but after further investigation I have decided It looks ****ty. I was thinking about using the stock Model T visor (and thought it would hide the brow), I still may use that visor... but have definately decided to cut that mess off there

    The stock visor is way tooo long! use a 1" piece of square tubing for the header... it'll work perfectly for the header!

    I'm going to make my own visor but I'm not letting it hang down below the top of the windshield frame. Me and pop were looking at it tonight!

    Looks like it is going together nicely for you . What size radiator are you using? Say from the mounts to the top of the rad. I am looking for a radiator for my 27 T model A frame 3" sweep on front. Thanks.>>>>>>PINCHER
