  1. The early "A" radiator shell looks right at home with the '26-7 body.

    I got back on mine this weekend. I reviewed my project list and I think I can finish the T in the least amount of time, so I'm shifting focus back to it. Hopefully I'll have some updates soon.

    It's been a really long time since I posted progress on 26 COOP.
    Body is waiting finish paint at a local shop (I promised my wife I wouldn't paint any more in the attached garage....she's had some respiroratory and sense of smell issues). I did all the mudding and priming at a buddy's place. Got the frame back from the paint shop. I painted all but the front part with POR-15 and did the suspension in single stage urethane. Now it's back on 4 wheels and waiting for the purple stuff:

    IMO the final install is the best part.

    Agree.....

    But it is like building a house. Once your have it fully enclosed you think you have it nearly done. It ain't necessarily so! But I gotta say this is the simplest build I have done. No frills. I have the chassis fully plumbed. Not far from being able to drive the unupholstered car down the road. Gettin' excited!
