Bread & Butter 27 Ford Project

I guess I'll call this one Christmas T (EDIT. Amy wants to call it Bread & Butter). So Bread & Butter it is. I've been on the lookout for a decent cowl for a long time. I've been collecting parts for a (GASP) traditional T or A for over two years now. 30 minutes after midnight on Christmas day I won the bid on this 26/27 T. $173.50.
More details on what I have planned after I get it home.

Sweet!

She will be dark, metal flake, candy green If I don't change my mind.

Amy, myself & the kids ran up to Dayton to get the cowl. The guy that had it seems to be pretty cool. He's moving to Northern Ky soon. He had all kinds of stuff in this huge garage. Some stuff I missed untill I downloaded the pics that Amy took. The cowl is in better shape in some places than I thought it would be and rough in a few places that I thought it would be good. After I get it in the garage I'll see what we have to work with.


This garage was full of stuff. Early Mustang, 66 GTO, model A and a lot more. I wish I would have taken a bunch of pics of all the stuff that was sitting around but I was busy yapping about hot rods to the guy. Here are a few pics from Amy.



I told Doug Ice that I thought I saw parts for this in the background of his ebay pics. I never even saw this car there. Amy scoped it out though while we was loading the cowl.

These old chevy's were a block down the street.

We rapped up the day by stopping at Dougs house to pick him up for a fast food grub fest. Other than the traffic on the way home it was a cool day.

The guy had more cars in the garage. I didn't get to take anymore pics because I wasn't sure how the guy felt about it. I can't wait to get started on "Bread & Butter"..

We were checking to see if we were going to channel the body over the frame. This is a pic of Steve trying to figure out if he was going to sit too high in the tub. Notice the coke cans in this pic. If you look at his face he looks a little worried.


Notice the coke cans are a little under pressure. Can you say help I've exploded the coke cans and I can't get up!! He did wise up and get a wooden stool. I can't remember laughing that hard. And how often can we see Steve do something wrong. lol

At least the Dr Peppers were okay, that's all that matters. I don't think I've ever seen Amy laugh that hard.

If any of you were there you'd be laughing just as hard.

Will the tub be made from paper or plastic being as you shopped at Kroger for the seat!
