so I have a 27 coupe body on a custom made frame and am thinking about taking on a new project, but not sure what. So.... I am thinking about pulling the model T coupe body and replace with a model A coupe body. Thoughts? Yes, I am going to have to do some serious cutting, fabbing, etc, I know that, but I wonder how close the body dimensions are between the late t 5 window coupe vs. the model A five window or even 32 3 window. I have plenty of other projects I can destroy instead of this one, but it sounded like a fun thing to (at least) consider. Thoughts?
I personally would use the T, but its hard to say without pics, its easy to say "use what you like", but i understand that a second, or third opinion sometimes is needed
you'd think.... but I really enjoy re-building things I have already built or someone else did. That way. I know them inside and out. I do this with my motorcycles too.
You will come out ahead selling the T and starting over. Maybe a TCI ch***is even. the T looks great, it would be a shame to tear it apart.
yeah..... I am starting think about leaving it alone afterall. Mechanically, it is (finally) working perfectly. Its always good to get feedback from the HAMB... you all keep me in check. Having said that.... I have a custom Harley that I think may get the "knife"
That T looks Bad ***... slowly build the model A for something to keep you busy, and keep the T together to thrash around in. (just my 2 cents)
