    Simple T build. The way they should be. Nice boobies on the model too!

  5. Nice looking T. The model is nice too. I'd be happy with either one, or both.

    By the plates it from a Northern state with Street Rod plates. The light covers the state name...worth a ticket to a TX cop on a bad day.

    Boy i won'y want those e brake cable to "grab" something on the road!
    They look awful low to me.
    See if you can find a "total performance" assembly manual , a " California roadster" one or download Chester Greenburgs" how to build a tbucket" book & go from there, all 3 are great.

    i think the thing that makes it look good and different are the wheels. it doesn't have the skinny wires on the front, or the fat rear. [unlike the model]

    thanks for the post's. by the photos i can tell it has a sbc, coil spring rear and metal flake steering wheel. the paint i think is a panel fade but iam not for sure.

    looks like a 10 bolt Chevy, and just like the "Model" the rear end is too wide for the application

    Plates are PA.

    A little off topic but when those Street Rod plates came out, with the T on them, a car built like that was illegal in PA. I thought it was funny enough that when I wrote to PennDOT supporting a law that changed the equipment rules, I told them the car they picked as representing a Street Rod on there plate was ILLEGAL in there own state. I suggested that it was easier to change the law to allow the car than to change the plate. They did change the law though.
