What a bitchen' car. Love the stance. This is what I'm going after, Mr. Cheater. Thanks for posting this shot. What have you got going for the frame?
I'd love to know your car's stats. I'll be one very happy camper if I can achieve a similar look.

Hey guys. Im doin a 27 coupe that was chopped by guy I got the body from. I built the frame myself with a 10 inch Z in the back. Built 390 FE with a dual quad and a T10 behind that. In the process building the floor right now. T coupes are bitchin I think!

We are slowly working on a 27 roadster with a track nose for my lil brother.

Gotta get a couple other projects out of the way first but I have been collecting parts for my 26 Coupe. Here is the plan:

26 Coupe body
32 Chevy frame(bobbed and set up with Model A crossmembers)
52 Olds 303 w/cragar 4x2 induction
either saginaw 3 speed(cause I have about four of them laying around) or a T5
model A front axle dropped 3'' and front bones
48 F1 front brakes, steering, rearend, wheels

Well not building one now but here's a pic of one I did a few years back ,started with a 100 % rust free bone stocker. Ended up Ford 302 power ,C-4 and an 8 inch rear. Was a great car . Good luck with yours .

"YoungGun" do you have a build thread on here yet....Hint Hint
"MrModelT" i wish I could just get one finished...but no you have to build a cool car then re-build it!!!! lol Any changes in the new plans or just going to freshen it up?

[rjgideon]

I am planning on a glass 27 roadster. Mopar big block, pushbutton auto. Picked up a '40 front end last weekend for it.

[d-rod!]

in the early stages of my 27 coupe also , considering not chopping mine either, channeled and z'd with a caddy or pontiac and some kind of stick shift trans ,totally early 60s show car style

I'm just getting started on building a copy of the car that inspired me back in 1958! Right now, the coupe body is off the frame, all the garnishes, dash etc. are out and it's on it's way to the media blaster. I was lucky enough to find one with very little rust - just a small hole in the right side quarter panel and a bit where the spare tire bracket was bolted on. Here's a pic of what I'm shooting for. Jeff Norwell did this artwork for me back in 2004.
