Worked a bit on Tom's coupe today, the rear fenders are finally starting to resemble rear fenders!!!!! Also did a bit more on reinforcing the top sill and tieing things together up there. Hey Tom, did you want square or round tubes for your cross bows??? I think we discussed it, but you forgot to have me write it down in my notes!!!!!

Square tubes.
As long as your E-mail isn't working I going to give you some measurements on here. Paul a guy I met at "Back to the 50s" several years ago has a 27 T Tudor with a Buick V6, 4" dropped axle, 4 bar, and a stock T frame, and full fendered.... I liked everything about his car. I asked him how he got his "Rake" and how the tires fit so good in the front fenders.
He has 195/70R14 in the front and 255/70R15 in the back, from the highest point on the bottom edge of front fender to the ground is 25 1/2 inch, this was measured at the top of the curve in the wheel well. The lowest point of the front of the fender to the ground is 17 3/4 inches. From the bottom of the radiator bottom cover to the ground is 9 3/4 inches.
I attched a couple of pictures of his car which doesn't show much but he's sending me more pictures in the mail, hopefully they make it here some time this week so I can show them to you when I stop my this coming Sunday afternoon.
