Projects 26 T Roadster Pick Up build Thread

WOW! I've never heard of them, but.... WOW! That's some mellow tuneage. It reminds me of late 60's Folk, before everybody went commercial. Real.... earthy and meaningful. I'll have to look for them, next time I'm music shopping. Thanks!

 

Sad day indeed taken way to soon but as the saying goes around here...He left his mark...Bigtime...Condolences to the Downie Family and Friends. His Legacy and Spirit will live on.

Thanks Blue One and good job on the Hotrod...

Wow, everything is so clean and such quality! This is going to be fun.

 

Limeworks oilite bronze bushings for the powder coated front spring and shackles
More to come

 

ZZZZZZZZ......... Huh? What? Oh..... cool!

 

Wake up Fred
Quick change in place along with the rear wishbones and the Excelciors.

 

All right! This should be fun! Everything should go to together pretty well as you engineered and mocked up this project over the years.

 

Kool shit Larry.

Rebel

 

Thanks Gary.

 

Those expensive chrome wishbones look GREAT.

 

Expensive
Well okay I guess you could say that
I fabricated them so it would have been the cost of the steel (But I got it for free.)
The expensive part was the chrome

 

I'm up! Looks great, man! I love the shiny bits.

 

Are they original Ford trumpet ends for your quick change or did you find them reproduction? I need a set for my QC.

The rear end is a completely new one that I bought as it is from Speedway Motors.

It’s a Winters V8 Nostalgia Quick change.

 

Last week I hauled the little pickup bed to Line X and had them spray the inside with bed liner.

Turned out pretty nice.

 

Now you can haul stuff without worrying about chipped paint!

 

Yeah...... some trophies have sharp edges.

 

Ha Ha guys
It’s not like I’m going to be hauling a lot of stuff there’s very little room left once the gas tank is in place.

And I don’t give a rats backside about trophies

I just like the look of the liner since I built the bed without any wood in the bottom.

And yes it’s true scratched paint inside will be a non issue

 

At least you can put something in it with out worrying about scratching the paint.
I have it in the bed of a 1980 ElCamino SS and haul stuff all time. I think it's practicall.

Some initial assembly shots of the front suspension axle and all that.
Nothing except the steering arms are tight yet.
It’s going together well so far

 

Looking real good! I'm going to have to go back to the start for a review.

 

So far looks great!

 

Keep in mind that things have evolved and changed a great deal as this build has progressed
