Cruise around in Tucson...

My T Coupe is on the Road!!

I'm going to cruise around for a couple of hours.

Might stop at a couple of Shops, and take some Pics.

 

Man...that looks pretty cool.....
Did you change the rear tires??? Before I thought they looked to big/bulgie ...but looks great outside!

 

NICE!!!!! Way to go, and right in time for the weekend!
Hope to see you around in it!

 

What kind of wheels are those?

 

Cool Alex!

 

Damn...he just stopped by my office...this thing is KOOL!!!!!!!!!!!

 

What? No phoenix trip?

Looks really good on the road Alex. Can hardly wait to see it!

he just left my place,

I went directly into the bathroom to wipe myself!

 

Is that a good thing?


Grsmnky in the left of this pic...

 

I went over to Don's Hot Rod Shop.

I needed to get a couple of Exhaust U-Bends to give back to Enfo.
( He lent me his so I could get the T on the Road...)

Some of you will recognise the Lumberjack in the Parkinglot of Dons Hot Rod Shop.

They showed it in the beginning of the Movie "Easy Rider"...

 

I stopped at Meatball's Office. ( on the right in this pic.)

Then I went to go look at a Caddy Engine.

And I took the Freeway over to some other buddy's of mine, but they had already Quit for the day. ( just like me.... )

The T cruises effordlessly at 80...

 

And I went to see some friends of mine on the other side of town.

Bondo Bob trying out the T....

 

That was a fun couple of Hours...

The Car drives great ( it was a good shakedown run...)

It does fine in Town and on the Highway.


Got a pretty good sunburn too...

Heat is your friend....

 

Wimp!! It's only a 106 degrees in front of my office

 

No, I like the Heat...

( Hate Rain & Snow)

 

looks bad ass Alex!

thanks for stopping by! next time you come, take my 39 with you..lol

 

Is that a Y I spy in there? Righteous.

 

Yep, its a Y-Block...

 

Hi Alex- how much channel is that?....BTW its the shit!

 

I still remember the first time I went to don's in 1977, I just got my driver lisence, and needed to buy some intake gaskets....

the Leo's sign is still there? too bad the store isn't. I have an early 50s hot rod mag with Leo's ad in it.

 

Good job metalshapes, love the T's!!

 

3 1/2" Channel, so the 4" frame sticks out just a bit.
But you cant see it unless you get on the ground to look for it...

Squirrel, haven't seen the Leo's sign.

Thanks guys.
Here is a pic of the Coupe Body just after my buddy Peter found it...

 

That's great!!!Where is the requiered giant grin photo???

 

You can see the sign in the picture you posted of the "big guy", along the right edge.

btw, the car is bitchin! Great to see another one on the road, I'll have to get up there this summer and see it in person.

 

Thanks guys.
Here is a pic of the Coupe Body just after my buddy Peter found it...[/quote]Hey Alex ya think anybody would believe the mountian of body/fender parts that your T came out of???? ....and right in the middle of Tucson!

 

Nice Alex! A bit of V8 therapy to prove it was worth it? I liked the car when it was a roadster pickup.

I LOVE THE T COUPE!

 

Still wondering what kind of wheels those are. Love the car and that it has a Y-block in it.

 

ive been wanting a t coupe for ever but i settled for an a sedan but i think my 55 fairlane is going to give up is y for the sedan. nice ride btw

 

They are the imitation Halibrands that are sold on Ebay.
I bought them used from DragginWagon...

The Tires are 5.60 and 8.20 X 15 Firestones from Coker

Edit.

I dont think they look like a Halibrand, but thats the name they use in the listing, I believe....

 

Cool. Thanks. I thought they kinda looked like Wheel Vintiques Cruizer wheels.
