Projects "No Quarter"- '27 T coupe project

Wow, this is looking great-love the dash too! I am a sucker for T coupes. That is one car on my bucket list.

Keep up the good work

Dude the dash looks awesome!!!

I'm doing the same thing with the chop right now.... it's no easy task of taking a section out and welding it up is it!!!

 

Its the snow that drives back the foot thats slow.....................

Doc.

 

awesome "T".

 

Cool

 

Josh, your project is looking good. I don't know if you have seen pix of, my friends chopped T coupe, his screen name is Bewas, here on the H.A.M.B. It' a sweet ride if you haven't seen it yet. I'm still slowly hacking on mt 27 Ford modified,but I have no deadlines.

Cant find that name anywhere Jack ???

 

Here it is....although I haven't found pics of the coupe...

Thats a shame, was looking forward to the pics as i'm building a 26T also.

 

Got this original Ansen pedal assembly from a fellow Hamber (thanks 61cad!), with chromed arms. The chrome is a bit rough, but I'll keep 'em as is....since they've got CHARACTER.....who knows what cool old hottrodder had these on.
I did however have to modify the bracket to fit flush, since it interfered with the curvature of the cowl....

The rusty MC is just a mockup....a shiney CHROME one will find it's home there...





Also,,,,during pedal mock-up, I was trying out different shifter handles....I have a half dozen different Hurst and Eelco handles, but none were quite "right". So I pulled the handle off my other car....damn it's perfect.
The simulated wood grain grip will go bye-bye in favor of some homemade acrylic ones....in white and blue

Pistol Grips rule.....but I'll need another now for my other car....haha!

Uhhhh.....uhhmmmm....errr.....no Neil, held up on $$$ for sheet. Trying to get a 1920's Pexto shear from a freind first.....to make the cuts a little nicer.

 

i'm digging that pedal assembly and the Dual reservoir MC. Need to get that MC chromed for sure!!!

 

Josh&Langy,, when you get to Bewas's profile, scroll down to albums, it's there.

..........Jack

 

Thanks fellas...

.
Yeah JJ, I dig 'em alot too. Everytime I acquire a "new" OLD part, my mind wanders, thinking of who bought it originally, what it was installed on, etc, etc....it's the old parts and the history of each part that really make the car.
And I need all the help I can get to make up for my HACK.....

Actually it's not....he probably has his settings set to only allow "freinds" to view albums....

 

Look good man! See you at the early bird??

 

Thanks Chris....yeah,, I'll be there.
May even get a vendor's spot, since I need to raise some hotrod $$$....haha

Sinister,your T is one of the few that is giving me a bunch of inspiration tonstart building my 27 coupe and tudor. Keep the work and progreas comin!!

 

Was this taken on S. Congress St. in Austin?

 

Sweet start, keep the pics comin

Not sure, probably....Tommy R took the pic....and he live's in Austin....

 

cool build can't wait to see it on the road

 

Yessir, that was on Congress during the Round Up a couple years back.

 

I took a few when it was parked in the same spot; that car blew my mind!

 

Very neat looking Hot Rod. 4 speed like it should be, too. Chopped T coupes are bad ass.
