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 ****s 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
