T Coupe - little update

This is the 27 T that I purchased from metalshapes a while back. I haven't done much with it yet.

Here are some updates, I found some nice garnish mouldings and have put them in.

I got the seat recovered. I kind of wanted to do the whole interior in white, but decided since I'm just doing the seat for now, to do it in black. I did have some white piping put in. I might redo it in white later.

Here's a before shot while Alex was doing some rust repair.


Here's the seat now.


It looks better in person, the camera really magnified a few puckers and stuff in the new vinyl. It lays fairly smooth in person.

 

look's good, and I was so happy with my mexican blanket.

 

Seat looks good. How about a full-car pic?

Can you post some detailed garnish moulding pics?
My T Sedan is missing them , and i need to fabricate them.
TIA

Thanks guys. Here's a pic of the car the day I got it. Also, check old threads from metalshapes, for build up pics.

 

Really *****in', pure and simple hot rod! Perfect proportion, stance, etc.!

Seat looks good.

 

Thanks for the updates Mike.

The Seat looks a lot nicer now...

 

Sorry for the maybe dumb question, (I didn't check the build-up posts) but, what kind of seat is that. I need something for my T soon

 

hey is that a seat from a mnivan? thinking of doing the same for my 31 A

 

im not a big fan of Ts but that is a pretty cool lookin car

 

Thanks everyone. Alex, glad you like the seat.

As far as what kind of seat it is, if I'm not wrong its a seat out of a mazda minivan.

 

I still need the door mouldings. I have the 1/4 window and back window ones in. I'm sure the 1/4s are different for a sedan. I'm not sure about the rear one? The door pieces can be bought repro. That's what I will do when I get to that point.

I've been debating finishing up the 3x2 induction (running on one only right now) or running a single holley 4 barrel with a nice small cast aluminum air cleaner. I have the carb and air cleaner, but would buy a blue thunder intake if I go that route. The 3 2's look so nice tho...

 

Yeah, it is.

Cant think of the Model Name right now...

I was amazed at how comfortable it was.

 

Mazda MPV?

Ya, its even more comfortable now. They added quite a bit of padding to it.

 

No, it was a Quest.

I guess that makes it a Nissan
( I had to look that up... )

Those things all look alike to me...
