Been mentioning this article for years and stumbled upon it this week. Rod Action July 85 Stan Vanamburgh 26 T coupe. He used two 60 Chevy pu roofskins. Cool 80s rod. Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
Pretty sure Chip aka Needlouvers and I talked about this one. For 15 years on the HAMB I have been mentioning this top treatment when 26/7 Ts came up. This was a killer car. There are a few more pages I did not scan. It is the issue with the Jack Dooney Kookie T "clone" on the cover.
Kinda hard to see the top skin but the visor looks kick-ass. Tell me, Trent.........does that thing have 2 cowl vents? One behind the other? I don't care much for that.
That is a reflection on the cowl. Think of 2 60 Chevy truck roofs with the rears mated up north-south on the coupe centerline. that is how the visor is formed. Blew me away 30 years ago when I first saw it.
Great article, I'd think theres enough roof donor late models that could be used, that someone wouldn't have to go searching for 60's vans.
