I figured that was threaded for a grease nipple
Has anyone seen this before? I have a chrome 4" dropped tube axle that has a hole for a grease nipple but no hole for a drift pin to keep the...
well I have mine mocked up a bit to height then. I'm sitting at close to 4 inches on the shop floor right now.
I boxed in the frame already but we can cut and weld anything at this stage. I should have mentioned that the front suspension with be coil overs....
I have a question regarding the amount of space between the axle and the frame. I have a 30 Model A chassis that will be running a 4" dropped tube...
I purchased this axle and 4 bar set up for our 30 Model A chassis. It's set up to run coil overs by the looks of the mounts on top of the axle....
Has anyone here done this? I'm mocking up a 27 T roadster on a 30 Model A frame and I think it would look so much better channeled so you don't...
Ours is a different sort of Coupster being that the front 2/3 of the car is 27 touring roadster while the back end is from a 27 Coupe[ATTACH]

I may have missed it somewhere but what did you use for a steering box Paul? I've heard a 48 Ford F1 is a good donor
And here I am, a Chevy guy and I'm starting on building a 27 Model T roadster build
yeah the small blocks look pretty tiny in the engine bay. Mine looks even smaller because i have the engine sitting lower than normal to lower the...
this one isn't set up for comfort on long rides so i don't see it crossing the border into the USA and cruising the lower 48. This truck might be...

Parts showed up the other say. Parallel 4 link for the rear, panhard bar, shock mounts, u bolt kit and tranny cross member
Got the frame all welded up and a new flat cross member installed
