It has been a long while since I gave you an update.
The T is up and on the road!!!!!!!!!!
We started this rebuild in mid December or so. I really kicked it off when I had my family come over and help pull the motor, etc.
The front brakes are still questionable. I really need to tackle those. I have used the information forum members have provided to do research on the conversion. It seems that the straight GM disc conversion is not the best either, because those are heavy and can end up with unbalanced situations on the light front end as well.
So, we will nurse these drums along until we can get some high dollar aftermarket light weight front brakes.
Here is a awful picture (bad lighting and angle, but you get the idea) of the first test ride with my mom last Sunday. The carb was giving me a fit and the alt. quit charging..but at least we went around the block.
