Pop's T is done & driving w/pics

Well I am thrilled to say that my dad got his modified wrapped up & ready for the Turkey Rod Run. He just got the interior done. We got the grille shell & headlights on it, wired them and took a drive! It was last night about 2am, and it was FREEZING(for florida people), but we took it for a nice drive. It was so great to finally see it on the road. My dad was nice enough to let me drive too, and it was a rush.

The car drove just great. I am VERY excited for my dad, he has been without a finished hot rod for a long while now. He worked really hard on this, and I am so happy to see all that pay off into a great car he built.

We still have to wrap up some finishing details on me brothers t-bucket, but we should be able to put the final thrash on it so they will both go to the turkey rod run.

Here's some outside pics of my dads car:

I'm lovin' it! Cold as it is here today, makes me wish I'd stayed down there.

 

Damn thats cute!!!! Nice job!!! Luv it!!............OLDBEET

 

perfect when i think of a well done T something like that pops into my head..great detail stance cats *** man!

 

I love it, it puts a penny flavor in my mouth!

 

Real nice. Any bare ch***is shots and/or rear suspension shots??

 

Damn good looking T! For the record was your dad raised as a girl in the Chinese Nobility? Because thats the only way his feet will fit down there!

 

Never been big on T's myself, but i love this one! Clean and simple..perfect color choice's.....and shiny! NICE!

 

Any more pics? We need them!..........OLDBEET

 

If I built "T" I would be proud for it to turn out like your Dad's, but alas I have size 13EEE feet.

 

Haha, it's actually not as tight down there as it looks. I knew a girl like that once
It is easier to two-foot it, but I was suprised that is was really not bad at all. Thanks Tman

I do have some I will dig up, I'll send some your way soon, I'll pm them

I HATE cold weather!! This IS cold for me

..............not in your hands


I'm trying to post up a youtube vid of my brothers bucket he pulled out of the shop the other night for the first time. I **** at the internet...............

 

thanx

 

Both of the cars look great!

 

That car just screams CLEAN to me. I can't put my finger on it exactly but everything just seems to be neat and in the proper place. Well done, have fun with it.

Man thank a ton for all the great words guys, my dad will really love to hear the feedback. I also love the look the car has. It has nothing "extra" on it, just the needed stuff. I like the simple approach he took.

Here's a lousy dark video of my brothers T, he just got it pulled out of the garage for the first time the other night. I love the idle

I would call that one of the best looking cars on the HAMB in a long time.

 

Now that is a nice car. I hope my car is so pretty one day. Patina is for poor people!!

 

Dan,Been following both the builds for over a year now on other forums.You guys kick some serious *** in short time.I take it the push rods you just got must have worked out in your brothers car.I hope you guys all make it to your run down in FLA.

Now its time to see whats goin on with the RPU and the 39 Dodge.

Best of luck

 

I found this picture of my dad, as you can see his feet fit there just fine Thanks a ton for the greatest compliment too Tman, I am really proud of what he did

I gotta dig some up beet. He took about 1,236,755 pictures during the build

Hey thanks a ton! Actually the pushrods are tomorrows project on my brothers t for him. Hopefully a simple fix.... We should be ok for the run, it is a little tight, but we are almost there.

I wish that I had some good news about the rpu. Right now I am pretty much the loser of the bunch

 

Very cool build your father did.

Your Brother's T sounds pretty damn good too.

 

Thats how a T should look. Very nice

 

Dan,

Your dad's T looks great. The interior color is a nice compliment to the copper color used on the rims and engine. I can't wait to see your RPU finished and sitting next to your dad's and brothers cars. Keep up the good work!

 

clean, simple. definately would like to see some suspension detail shots.

 

Dan,You just got to build it.It was almost there.I just recently see you changed it all out.

 

Alot of people on the HAMB throw around the words "stance" and "proportions".

This car defiantly has both. Killer.

 

I'm diggin' it, see ya next week!

 

what body did he use. it looks stretched

 

Verry cool man likes I dig..........................

 

looks great nice ride like the rim and tire combo

 

Im not a big fan of those bodies, but you guys really nailed it. They look great!
