Looking really Kool!!..[dr I prefer the touring body over just another T bucket, if ya know what I mean..[cl Keep us posted with some more progress pictures...
 
Tubs make bitchin' hot rods. I keep looking at my T-Bucket thinking it wouldn't be that hard to stretch the frame. Wintec Fabrications makes a nice '23 tub body.

I'll be watching this build.
 
Nice start! I wish I would have had the front section of my touring, I would be building it like yours, but I like my lil project too.
 
I HATE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I almost got a 26/27 touring car in near mint condition (for a bitchin price) and the guy sold it out from under me. I've been wanting one of those for my "family car" for a while now. I'm officially jealous and will be expecting great things from this build!

Keep us posted on the progress.
 
Thanks for all the nice words guys, I'll definitly keep you posted as I go. Welding in the coil overs this weekend hopefully. Hey Kelsey, I saw a 27 touring for sale up in Denver. It was 4000 but it was a totally complete car. Fenders, running boards, hood,etc... It looked like a smoking deal. If your interested i could get the number.
 
Thanks man, but I can't afford that kinda dough. The one I was going to buy was a complete with minimal rust and most of the original paint........... for $1500. I don't think I'll find another deal that good. That's one I'll be kicking myself for a while.
 
engine update

I stripped and painted my engine this weekend and also got my headers.I put on my headlights and front shocks.
