Thread: Bringing my old friend back to life.

I've always wanted a T, but never got around to it-can't wait to see the finished result, how long until you think it will be done?

I'd like to have it finished for Turkey Run next November. It is actually a better road car than my current T, maybe because of the higher seating position or just having more room inside. I just know it is a lot more comfortable on long highway trips. It's been to Daytona twice before and it was a pleasure to drive. The new T is ok around town, but a little crampy when you are sitting for hours behind the wheel. The '27 is also a little quieter because the headers are capped and the exhaust goes through mufflers all the way to the rear of the car. All that adds up. The '23 is more like a motorcycle, you have to be thinking the whole time you are driving. The '27 was more like a regular car, you could sit back and relax a little more.

I'm thinking this time of more of a '60's look, with Dodge Lancer hubcaps and stuff like that. Just not sure, but the car will tell me what it wants to be as it comes together.
