After some thought, I figured what to do with an old Dodge truck cab I had laying around. I always wanted a T roadster so I decided to make one. Here is what I have done so far.

Wow! Very cool idea and so far it looks great! How about some closer pics of what you're doing with the cowl? That's a tough part to make look good.
 
MORE pics

I did some more work on the rear, I should have that part of the shell done next weekend.

Hey Sam, I do have to agree about the cowel area. That area seems to be where most if not all fail when taking a 40,s cab and make a so called roadster out of it. I will take some pics this weekend and explain how I was able to nail it in that area.

More progress

Wes and I made some more progress with the rear section of the truck. We hope to be putting the floor section in soon.......
