Features Who's Building a T?

How about a shout out from everyone who i currently building a T?

Mine's a 26 T Coupe. It's gonna remain tall, but ride good and low, courtesy of a custom frame Z'd front and back. The drivetrain is a 425 Nailhead/Turbo 400/12-bolt from a Buick Riviera. The frame's being built in December and I'm hoping to have a roller by February. Here's some shots of it as it sits now.

 

YES!!!! Someone with the vision and the balls to build one UN-CHOPPED. Good for you.

 

I am.... but I'm actually on a stand still right now!

Your mock up looks great!!!

 

Yep! I love's 'em tall...

 

X2 on the back pat for unchopped! Always sounds damn silly to me when someone refers to their "tall T coupe", and in the next breath says "it's chopped six inches..."

As far as "T" projects around the ranch here, I have my modified ('27) a customer's Archer glass bodied '23 touring done "T" bucket style, and eventually my '24 roadster done full fendered.

 

I am gathering parts... 26 tourng body , 36 front axle , 39 trans , 41 truck flathead , 41 rear end spindles and hubs , 39 pedals. Does that count ?

 

Ts are cool!! heres mine posted elsewhere already but...shucks

 

me to, preferably with tan skin and black hair

 

BTW, Here are a few cars I look at for inspiration:
Mercury Charlies old T (black with the purple flames by Von Franco)
Stoner's Hemi powered T sectioned vertically by Tim Conder (majorly badass)
Wertheimer's Golden Rod (built by Von Franco)

 

ME, ME, ME......



PS, if you dont already know, this is a tribute to the early AMBR winning version of the T that Von Franco built......

PSS, Need Louvres? above did my outstanding louvers, I highly recommend him!!!!!!!!

 

I am! Well, kinda. I'm gathering parts and will add pictures when I get to my computer.

 

After selling my '26, I've been taking some time off BUT my father has convinced me that we should start another build.
So, we're building a '23 this time and never selling it!
Just some tubing and and engine so far...
And the look we're going for.

 

And to those that don't know, the Goldenrod clone above and the Anderegg tribute are both versions of the same historical car. One of my favorites!

 

My 1912 turns 100 next month and I want to treat it to a set of 30x3 1/2 Bufallo wire wheels.

 

I will be starting in on my Barn Find '26 after the '49 gets done for the upcoming 2012 Autorama.

 

I'm building a 27 Coupe and have a build thread on here and yesterday I got board and realized I have enough pieces to put togethor my 23 as well.

 

My '27 Tudor will be chopped 7", channeled 3 1/2. Stude V8, Sag 4 spd. All on a home built frame.

 

Here's mine it's been running and driving for about two years now.

 

this is my first hot rod build. its a '27 sedan chopped 5 inchs, channeled on a 2.5 to 3.5 inch rake. 46-48 ford axle, backing plates, spindles and s bend split bones. model aa grill, 55 chevy rear end. i used a 3 torqe tube to build the lake style headers. Im running an early 318 poly with dual quad intake from a fury with o.e carter carbs. Hope ya enjoy the pics. im hoping to have it on the road this summer.

 

...And I might add, cloning one of the coolest ever! And thank you for allowing me to add my work to the effort!

 

Building a 27 T 2 door sedan now , and have a 23 T roadster waiting for spring time ! And just sold my 27 T coupe a few weeks ago . This cars are just Kool in my book !!

 

What a bitchen' car. Love the stance. This is what I'm going after, Mr. Cheater. Thanks for posting this shot. What have you got going for the frame?
I'd love to know your car's stats. I'll be one very happy camper if I can achieve a similar look.

 

Hey guys. Im doin a 27 coupe that was chopped by guy I got the body from. I built the frame myself with a 10 inch Z in the back. Built 390 FE with a dual quad and a T10 behind that. In the process building the floor right now. T coupes are bitchin I think!

 

We are slowly working on a 27 roadster with a track nose for my lil brother.

 

Here's an old pic of my not so tall T..need to get an updated one.

 

I like with them the stock roof height. Mr. Cheater I really like ur car too. Mine has no roof.

 

been building on this one for roughly 5 years, interior is left to do.
I like 'em tall, too !!

 

Building a '27 T coupe here.........
I was gonna leave it "tall",,,,,but once I chopped it, I knew it was the RIGHT thing to do.....haha.....

 

Not all tall, but a few more references:

 

does a TT count
