Thread: My '27 T Sedan project

Tweet

I haven't posted for a while, been working too much.

Had to turn the firewall back around to line up with my frame tabs, M/C, and such. Don't really need room for the engine anyway. I've just been working away at the sub floor, decided to go with a console down the middle instead of just a tunnel. I'm just starting to sheet it now. I wanted a solid tie in to the firewall so I put some 1/8" plate around the front, really sturdy now but I'm gonna have to get in there with the grinder to make it as pretty as Don's .
Can't really finish until I get my rear axle mounted. I got the Ford 9" off an '86 F150, it's 57" wide so it should work a little better. I decided I didn't want to make new control arms so I just ordered a triangulated four bar kit from these guys:

Kinda steep but seems like the going rate and I can cut these to whatever length I want.

I also ended up with a lot more room in the rear so I got a 17 Gal. RCI aluminum fuel cell. Comes with all the AN fittings and filler spout. I'm gonna try to mount it off to one side and I think I'll have enough room for the battery beside it (hope).

Oh yea I spent about 5 hours stripping out the old wood and boxing the pillers. That stuff is hard to remove.
