The Jalopy Journal
I think if you go to look at a car advertised for $600 or scrap it for $300 and when you get there its worth buying. Give the guy $600. If its...
No not much room to work with. Working on the clutch, pedals, and steering hoop now. I think I've come up with a way to maximize space. I'm...
New firewall and radiator came in the other day so steering will be getting done real soon and hopefully start putting some panels back on that...
Some details of the shocks.
Alright got some stuff done on the T. Got the frame all cleaned up (needed a lot more than I thought.) Mounted all the shocks. Running...
More is coming soon. Lost my day job and just got back on my feet. Updates soon.
It is never a good excuse to let your personal life hinder what you do for a living. I think everyone's been down that road. But, any good...

More has come apart on the body than has gone together. But I hear her take a sigh of relief every time some crusty piece gets cut off.
Thanks Will, I think I'm stickin with the A grille tho. I'm close to starting the flatty up for the first time. Hoping everything goes smooth....
Thanks for noticing...it spent some time in a warehouse after I built it and I haven't gotten around to sanding it down again.
Yeah the radiator will sort of float. I will build tabs off the front of the frame to mount it to.
I sleeved the bones in that area. Not sure of the material thickness but it was pretty damn thick tubing. Should be fine, lots of people do this....
Thought I'd share some information on how I got my measurements and how I thought it out. I started with wanting the very front of the frame...

Post some pix of what you've got so far.

More pix. We went crazy mocking stuff up and staring at it.
Thought I'd share what I'd been working on. Trying to keep it as 40's style as possible using and reusing as many original parts as possible. I...
I just got my bun panels and rockers for my 27 T roadster. Price and shipping time is GREAT!! However they crammed them in the smallest box they...
I had mine hanging by the halfbell for quite a while but you cant put your clutch on or take the oil pan off. I messed around with it for a while...
Here is a stand I made by drilling a plate that fits exhaust holes and weld it to an existing engine stand. Pay attention to the angle you weld at...
Who would've thought YOU would want to measure something!
We always use the aerosol glass cleaner. Gets dirt and greasy hand prints out. Never had a problem with discoloration or flattening out...
I think it looks awesome! I'd drive it daily.
This is what I'm talking about. Just wondering if there is any trick to figuring this out before I do it the hard way. Basically figuring out the...
