    This was my first attempt at building a car. 27 Turtledeck, a little tamer than a the other two, but just as much fun.

    T-Turtledeck:

    For what it is worth I thought that referred to the separate piece shown by Pro70z28 as compared to the all-in-one rear body section of the '26-'27 T-body. It seems obvious that Ford was changing the design gradually from the '27 to '29' to '32 to enlarge the trunk/rumble seat part of the body. Just for fun, I wonder if anyone ever converted a '26-'27 turtle deck to a rumble seat; it looks like a stretch of concept but may be possible??

    I never seen any of your cars before streets... I like that second one, looks sweet... besides the color. lol I don't know about the first one though but the one Viking put up and your second one there are good looking T's. I wish I could come across one of those, I saw one here for sale and it was yellow and pretty detailed almost like the black one but a tad bit different... Not sure on the price, I didn't even look because I know it would be way too much. Normally when I see cars out here, they are from rednecks that buy them from someone else already fixed up and they try to sell it for more.... damn rip offs. lol Got any more pictures of your hot rod streets? What about the one's you own now?
