Another build thread? Yep, my track-style T

Looks like you're off to a good start.

The tubing frame is cool. The stance looks like it's right on, too.

Looks like I've got another thread to watch every day now!

Jim just like following shop class . The frame on the coupe is awsome allmost convinced myself to try it but i stayed with the A . You think you will get any flex in the frame useing black pipe . I know very short lengths are strong but was wondering being tied together at 97 inches what it would do .

All these raw builds on this site are great may have me doing it after i get this one done .

Keep up the great work all us rookies are learning from all the masters.

Wow, looks like you are going to fab up lots of your own stuff. Great job. If I see you casting your own engine block, I'm going to have to bow down to you Jim.

Isn't it fun at this mockup stage, when you are propping wheels and stuff up with lumber and anything that will hold them in place? It's my very favorite part of the build, because it seems like you are really making progress, and it is also exciting.

Love this thread.

Sure, sockets, clamps, baling wire, you name it. Then you can sit back in your pondering chair and daydream. If you have two guys there, one sometimes holds stuff up for the other one to step back and take a look. (don't ask how I know about that one )
