That's a cool sedan but the buckect ain't workin', the frame is not right, and the grill is at least a foot and a half too far out for my taistes. But at least the builder of the bucket finished his, whcih is more than I can say for my roadster.

While I like the '34 grill it doesn't look right on a T but hey...To each is own....As far as the frame alot of people are doing it like that now so you can drop it with out channeling it....Don't like it much either...

I think I'd rather channel it just enough to hide most of the frame's angle changing. I've seen it where they'll make the frame basically the same but hide the Z in the frame on the interior side of the firewall. Way cleaner that way. It's not like that t bucket body is worth a whole lot by itself anyway.

I bet that frame looks just fine from the driver's seat while your driving it down the highway.  ;)

Rods are a personal preference kinda deal. Some of the ones I've seen I wouldn't let my worst enemies ride in, but as the owner of one of the dealers I worked for years ago said, "there's an ass for every seat". I just listed my '23 on Ebay tonight ... not overly joyful about doing it. It's not a money thing, I'm just beyond out of room.  :'(

That and the 65 Stevens has to go too.
