I recently saw a car with flipped backing plates in a mag, I think is was a more recent Rodders Journal....... Said it was done for cleaner brake line routing. Anyone else do it that way? regards, DJ
just for shits and giggles... my rear wheel cylinders are upside down for clearance pruposes... havent had any problems. jim - roadster looks excellant.
Hah! It was Royce Glader's Model A RPU that's been in all the mags recently. Chrome backing plates installed upside down. Nice car, wouldn't mind being the one selling it but never would be the one paying >$300,000 to have it built.... regards, DJ
Here's a shot of my primer green driver. I like the chrome acorns on the stock heads. They were a popular add on back in the day. pigpen
That thing looks good. Is there anyway I could get a bigger pic of it? I like your car a lot from what I can see. Jim
Here's the link to all of the gory details! pigpen http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=46017&highlight=pigpen
That is so funny. I am building this car just because of that post. I love your car and thought how fun it would be to build my own version of it. Jim
What can I say to that? I am totally honored! The T is a lot of fun to drive around. I live in a town of about 6500. Every time I take out the T(which is often), everybody on the road waves and smiles and some give the signal to honk the Ah-ooga horn. A brand new exotic sports car doesn't get as much attention! pigpen
