Full fendered "T"s thread... Official maybe?!

Whoops... Right your are SIR!

 

Okay, some of you might see this one as a bit of a reach considering it's a model and all... But look at it! This little pict seen first seen about 40 years ago gave me the life long hots for a '23-'25 coupe, as yet unfulfilled! Oh, one of the best covers on a magazine ever on my opinion.

 

I have a color shot of that model, pale yellow. Great template to build a 1-1 around.

 

Model building...I wouldn't trade all those years for anything, BUT, it sure was hard kicking the styrene habit. Hell, just talking about it is giving me the shakes....

 

Here's one for sale on hotrodhotline.com (http://www.hotrodhotline.com/classifieds/classifieds.php?a=2&b=41937)

"Hi, my name is Chip and I like '60 and '70s street Rods...." Hi Chip....

Step 1) We admitted we were powerless over our lust for Blue Streaks...

 

OK gang! I just had to revitalize this thread because I have some pretty cool news!!!

One of my Favorite Full fendered cars that basically disappeared about 35 years ago has just just re-surfaced!!! I don't have tons of time to go into it right now, so I'll sit down and do a complete write up a bit later today. I was contacted this last weekend by a Gentleman that was getting the Sheldon Bardin '27 "T" sedan! As I said the car disappeared in the late seventies, and was by far on of the nicest sedans ever done. The pictures I've seen show it to be pristine, too! As I said, more later!!!!

 

<hr style="color:#e5e5e5; background-color:#e5e5e5" size="1"> I had a full fender "Tall T" sedan for 18 years and it was a fun car. I still have two original tail lights that are chromed and one front window frame.
If, anyone interested in these items PM me.

Yes, a fellow in B.C. has the sedan as well as the Bo Jones T modified.

 

Hey gang when it rains it pours! I just went out to a 4th of July BBQ today and was informed of another "T" for sale here in Phoenix, this time a '25 "T" coupe with a new wood kit and perfect fenders and stuff. If anybody wants to know about it give me a yell!

 

I can hardly wait ! A year ago I talked with Sheldon about that cars whereabouts. He told me the guy that has it built a special garage for it, and thats where it's been sitting !!!

 

Yup! I think it'll be bitchin'! From the picture I have seen it's absolutely pristine too. It has a newish set of torque thrust II type wheels that would have to go, but other than that and some original "T" bumpers added it's as it was. Honestly, I was hoping it might have had the Magnesium torque thrusts on it that it was last seen in the magazines with in the late seventies. No such luck. It was good to meet you Pete at LARS a couple of weeks ago no matter how briefly.

 

Vintage T....

 

Wow, Lynn...
T's with A fenders are NEAT!

 

I picked one up too. I'm gonna do it like the T I use to have, but I'm waiting for my 4 y.o. to grow up a little so he wont get hand on it & fuck it up like my other models I use to have.

 

posted this on FAS a while ago

 

Perfect !!!

 

My brothers car in 1958 and 20 years later

 

OK guys, Help me out . . . Sheldon's T is for sale on E-bay !
If I could get enough of you to help me out by chipping in . . . I could buy one of my all time favorite cars ! So how about it !!!!

 

Damn Pete, if I wasn't flat broke I'd take you up on that!

 

These are two different cars. I built the car on the right between 1962 and 1965 and here's a couple different versions of it through the years and under construction...

 

Well, now that I've discovered this thread it is an excuse to repost all my favorite T's from my past. Here is the one that had the most influence on me in my youth. At the time the pictures were taken it was owned by Frank Hamusek. The pictures were taken at the 2nd LA Roadster Show in 1961.

 

Please Roger, do!

 

Gee whiz, Pete, how much should I make out the check for? Hahahaa Good one....

 

I'm in, just let me check with the wife first...I'm sure she'll be ok with it...
