Projects pre-war 26 T coupe hotrod pictures please

I agree 100% '37 Ford or I used to have some really slick '38 Pontiac taillights on a coupe a long time ago. They are the little bullet style too like the Fords. IMO...don't do the '50 Pontiacs. I love them too but not for what you're going for here. Lot's of Late 30's to early 40's options to go with....

 

Here is a pic of a 37 ford tail light I put on my pop's 31 A coupe.

 

That's what my Pontiac lights basically looked like after some modifications. I think that these are slick and a decent alternative.

Ha!! Shiftyrat posted that in my roadster thread a while ago. I've almost built that car a few times over the years and may yet!! I think the DBS needs a coupe twin!!

Looking forward to see what PantherShaun comes up with on this one....

 

SOLD that is perfect... got me a big swap meet coming up soon, have to gather some pennies together and get me some...

guy's, it seems there is a lot of interest in this style of T but very few actual build's... seems a real shame but maybe that is about to change eh???

 

here we have Clayton's original photoshop of a coupe body on his ch***is...



and this is the chopped version a mate did for me, which is also my avatar..



General Gow asked for a larger pic...

 

I'd say a chop somewhere between these two would be right....My $.02

 

+1. Here's what I'd aim for if it were mine;

 

Yeah that looks like where I was gonna go with mine. Don't chop it too much.

Howdy,
I like your idea's and I have put together a T coupe on an A ch***is you might like. I also chopped it 6". The pictures in the post is pre chop, but I have an album of RustZ you can take a look see at. Please understand that my car was built in 2 weeks with a pile of parts that I scrouged up. It is a blast to pop around in. So take a look and I hope my build helps you out so what.

LOVE IT!!! I checked out your album on the build and it looks perfect. Man...now I really want a COUPE twin for my ****py little roadster!!

Panthershaun....look at his chop in the album he has of this car....perfect. This what you have in mind??

 

Robert, I love the chop.. I did say I wanted to chop mine between 5 and 7 inches.. looks like 6 is spot on...

 

Can't wait to see this one come together...Shaun, what are your plans for the grille?

Very cool plan you have.. I like the heavier chop as in your avatar...

 

nice one Dynaflash 8..

 

Thanks to you all and the cool thing about hot rodding of any kinds, is that you do what ever you want to do with your car. It's your car build it the way you want it. Keep your mind going and most of all have fun doing it. I love standing apart from all the rest, meaning being different in my own way. Too deep. I love everybody's car. I truely mean that. That's why we are all car guys right?

 

Here's my T after the 6" chop

 

love it Bob.. really can't wait for my body to arrive here in the UK.. I will start a build thread after the weekend once I've grabbed a few pic's of the part's I have so far...
