Hot Rods Has anyone seen or own a car done this way?

My grandson picked up a car this weekend that was on hamb for sale. I believe I remember seeing a car or two done this way by installing a T sedan body on a A frame and fenders. Does anyone here have or have seen one done like this from the seventies till now? Looking for pictures. Thanks. Exterminator

 

Damn cool car! There is a roadster here in town done that way as well.

 

Nice car,reminds me of the Lil John Buttera 27 T sedan he had back in the 70's color was very similar?.That car was what turned me on to old cars. Harvey

 

Cant say I've seen it done much, but it looks really cool

 

First thing I thought of when I saw the picture was John Buttera also then I saw 37 caddy response.

 

Cool car!
It also has a '28-29 A cowl, hood & grille shell.

 

I love the look of that car. I am kind of partial to T's. (See avatar). When I was building mine I had a shot at some 31 A fenders. I asked on here about mixing the 2 and mostly got negative responses, but seeing the results almost makes me wish I had pursued the A fenders. But I have a couple questions.
Where is the 4" gained in wheelbase? I don't see anything stretched on the T body? Mine is on the model A 104" wheelbase and the body is stretched 4" ( hood 4" longer) in the engine bay area by extending the splash aprons and running boards.
What year are those fenders?

 

And fenders.

As Gary said, 28/29.
In my opinion the best looking fenders of all the early cars!

 

I didn't notice the "28-29 cowl. That's where that 4" is at. I love it. Great car. I hope he enjoys it as much as I do my T.

 

Cool ride,enjoy!

 

I believe this is the car Johnny Sitez built. He was as good friend of Jakes & was either a member of ,or hung around with , the " Early Times " car club .
Johnny passed away several years ago .
I think I have a picture of it at the Early Times picnic , around 1971 .
I'll do some checking

 

Absolutely love it! Don't change a thing!!

 

Cool ride! Enjoy!

 

it is really well built. And fun to drive

27 Tin on A chassis. Aprons and Running boards stretched (note change in black shine). Just need to get the Rad down a little and build a hood or not.

 

WallyRod is my grandson and the new owner of the car. Congrats on getting the car.

 

Little John Buttera's car was darker, Rootbeer brown.

 

I googled his car and it had T fenders also.

 

It looks killer. Don't change a thing!

 

And it had a chrome Jag rear...

 

I remember seeing it for sell here on the hamb a few years ago. HRP

 

Saw this car in the classifieds and thought it was a killer deal. If I had more room in the garage , you would have been late to the party. Congratulations. You got a sweet car for a good price.

 

The cowl on a 28-29 pickup uses T doors, I bet that they mounted the rear of a T sedan on the remains of an early Model A pickup. Looks good, Model A frame was a common upgrade for a T in the 50-60's.

 

Yep, that would work!

 

There was a T Touring build on here by an English gent, nice solid car on a '29 frame & fenders. Extensive build.
I'd have scooped this sedan up... Bunny Quick!
Great proportions, fenders and hood grace the 'T' nicely. Rake doesn't hurt, either!
And, Wally: You look good in there!

 

That makes for one great looking car.

There used to be a 27 roadster with A fenders that showed up at events in the PNW about 30 years ago that I really liked the looks of.

 

Very kool! Only thing I would change is different offset rear wheels or narrow the rear end a bit.

 

Saw a 28-29 pickup cab done the reverse way, had a 26-27 T cowl added. Nice looking car, 5 Spokes look nice on it. Bob

 

Wescott's did a 26-7 T roadster with 28-9 fenders many years ago and probably still do. I have done three 27 steel roadster pickups on Model A chassis but they have all been fenderless. I too like that T sedan body with 28-9 fenders etc.!
