    American Track Roadsters

     



    Anyone had any dealings with this company? They have the perfect body for my T bucket. Stretched 5 inches and a functioning turtledeck.

    I looked through their site, the body looks good and does have core mat where it should be for reinforcement.... Never have seen one, though. Prices aren't too bad, either.

    Am thinking of using their 23 stretch body with turtledeck on a Total Performance chassis.

    Where they have the body stretched, it is not going to fit on a stock dimension chassis.... Might be best to use their frame ......

    What part of the body do you think would not fit on the Total chassis? I was informed by the owner it should bolt right on. I can get the dimensions of it and contact Total to see if it would fit.

    Well, he said the body was stretched behind the door.... On a bucket, the rear frame kickup is a ways in the body, you will have to notch the body for them...seems the stock length frame would protrude too far into the body.... It will fit, just not sure I would want that much of the frame rail inside the body...If he sez it fits, I'm sure it does. IMO a longer frame would be better, his site sez the body is stretch 4 inches behind the door...... An extra 4 inches of wheel base on a bucket would be nothing but good news, anyway.......
