    68 Chevelle, I haven't forgotten about you wanting photos of the Panhard bars on my 26 Tudor on TCI A rails..the car is at a friend's house about 20 miles away, and I just haven't had the opportunity to get up there at get some photos.
    I can tell you, though, that they both (front and rear) came right out of the Speedway catalog, the front one goes from a welded bracket on the passenger side of the chassis, to a bracket that attaches to the axle/batwings for the radius rods, and the back one attaches, again, to a welded bracket on the frame, to the 3rd member iof the rear end.
    I agree with Mr. Severson, Panhard bars are a good thing, no matter what, there will always be a little swing and sway....

    Thank you for the information Dave, I will get my speedway catalog to check them out. As for the pictures there is no hurry. College started back up so there is less time to work on the hot rod and even less funds

    Thanks again,
    Thomas

    Old Hot Rodder: You ever build a model car?
    Me:Yeah...
    Old Hot Rodder: Well instead of using glue you weld.

    It may seem like I have been slacking because the lack of pics on this thread recently but I have been plugging away at the T. The frame is finally painted and ready for reassembly. Besides getting the frame ready for paint I have been hand polishing aluminum pieces, getting other parts ready for paint, and buying parts. Its been a busy last couple of weeks and I made a promise that the next time the frame would be seen on here it would be painted

    Before

    Primer


    After/Paint. The pics a bit dark
