Let see all the custom made frames...

some old in progress shots....

 

Here is the semi-space frame for my '27 Track T. It is made out of 1 1/2" x 3" x .120" wall rectangular tubing as well as .120" wall 1 3/4", 1 1/2" and 1 1/4" round tubing.










Here is the finished car:

 

Model A Tudor Sedan Frame "Lucky Strike"

Built by Hot Rod Ch***is and Cycle

 

Not nearly as nice as some posted above....but I made do. Side rails are 6"x2" tube, pinched at the cowl, kicked up at the front, and tapered to 4" tall at the front crossmember (model A reproduction). 4"x2" for the kickup in the back and an original A crossmember. Center frame section is from a '41-'48 Ford. All done on my garage floor with a tape measure.

 

A drilled '32 I did a few years ago..

 

2 x 3 .125 wall and 1.5 round underslung ch***is...

 

A myriad of various size tubes from 7/8 dom to 2x3 and everything in between on a 26 Ford modified roadster..The Ace of Spades.

 

2x3 with 2x4 cross members under a 26 T r/p

 

2 x 3 tubbing - 1/4 in plate - Conduite for body skelaton

 

not running any gussets on that copper one on the front and rear z's?or am i missing something

 

do you mean the copper, cream & green frame?
If so, no gussets on the the Z's my man. Didn't feel the need, no problems yet, cars been done for 2 years.
If you didn't mean this frame, please disregard.
Happy new year to all.
Love Cheater Carl

 

This ones an A model replica, kind of. Under My RPU, first one i built.

 

ACEHOLES frame Built Buy Bob Bleed with the "Bleed Sweep" and adjustable rear perch

 

i love seeing all of the builds, and craftmanship on here, it motivates me and makes me want to do a better job and be more innovative. thanks guys

 

a few from my coupe I finished this summer/fall. Sorry they are kinda artsy, Cheater Jack took them & he is a budding homo***ual w/flair! Love CHeaterCarl

 

There must be something wrong with these pictures because the steering box is on the wrong side of the frame, and the distributor is on the wrong side of the engine.

Damn smart*** texans...

 

He probably already has a belly ****on, and didn't want another one.

 

Here is some more detailed pictures of my front end set up in the 1927 lakes modified. These show the torsion bar suspension and how the connection on the right is fixed to act as a Panhard rod and the left side is a link to enable the arms to swing through different arcs and not bind.

 

That's killer!

 

here is the start of mine on my international

 

Here's a few more with the body a bit more advanced. All of the steel panels including the grill shell were formed from flat panel steel.
I made the steering wheel and column from bits and pieces of alluminuim from the s**** bin. The seats are formed from flat with compound corners welded in after. The fuel tank has hammer formed ends and a filler cap from a GSXR1100 motor cycle, the belts are just for show over the mounting bolts. The tail lights are Model A with custom brackets from the tank mounts.

 

That looks bad *** for sure.

 

Woodbox, looks great. Thanks for posting.

 

Rich, Thanks for your comments. I do appreciate them, especially from another one man band on the other side of the world. I am currently caught up with house renovation projects and have been doing OPJ's (other peoples jobs) so have not been able to do anything on the T for far too long. I am expecting a load of new parts soon to help things get kick started again.

 

here's a couple of mine. they are both for 4100 series chevy ad trucks




this one is in the process still, should be on the road in the spring. its 2X4 mostly...

this is one i did last spring




this one is 2X4 main rails with a 1 5/8 cromoly truss

 

Still a work in progress...

 

So many great fab jobs..It's a shame to cover them with a body!
