1926 Sleek T build thread

That steering arm is wild but man it works! Thanks for the update!

 

Choose Full Image...not Thumbnail... Your cool Hot Rod deserves big pics!

 

Lol I’m just thankful he’s posting at all. No need to get all wound up about having to click once to see it bigger lmao

 

Hey thanks for the heads up I had no clue thanks

 

I started running the round stuff, brake lines using a drum drum jeep master. 2” exhaust started and some wicked upper torque links made to hold that pinion angle where it belongs at 3 degrees headin north bound

 

Cool!

 

Just a bump to the top. The first page could always use more cool hot rods

 

Yes!! another trip back to 1947...Awesome project coming together @flyin flattie

 

Looks like fun to be had!

 

Coming together got the floors done too

 

Floor looks like it should be nice and solid. Great looking work

 

It is! I sunk the seat as low as I could go and the floor panel is aluminum due to well I like aluminum and less weight means better gas mileage at 6 dollars a gallon give or take

 

Oh and the seat and tunnel are 16 gauge. Makes making that tunnel easier and gives my buns some safety

 

thanks for the updates

 

Awesome, and it’s another part you don’t have to worry about rusting

 

A low seat is both form & function! Sitting out of the wind looks way cool and is definitely more comfortable.

 

No matter how many times Pete Eastwood says it, some guys install cowl steering anyway

 

Man manyoldcars do you post anything positive?

 

No shit!

 

If you notice the steering is in front of the tie Rod of the split wish bone so maybe Pete won’t have a conniption. I’ll show him a 40 ford steering box is cooler than a mustang one any day too.

 

I don’t always see the point in roll bars but the customer wanted one so here it is and tank getting fit with my 2” floor riser to allow for a flat floor.
Oh and the steering wheel of the dreaded cowl steering

 

No he doesn’t. I’m not sure why he’s even here.

 

@flyin flattie...someones getting a very cool ride...nice work and thanks for sharing the journey...

 

Time for another update! I finished the exhaust, did the rear floor. Made a rear pan, bumper bar/ nerf bar. And got the external roll bar. Oh yeah and windshield set up is off to chrome

 

Oh man that’s great progress and photos to zoom in on! Thanks for the update!

 

Really digging this build.

 

Distributor goin on too. Had to crack the Allen ceeper loose to get the bolt in.
