Hello, My name is Steve. I live in Portland, Oregon. I like old cars and trucks and am building a 1927 ford T coupe. It is chopped, fenderless, with a small block chevy with tri power. Not done yet still working on it. Found this site and it looks very cool.
Here is an older picture of my car. Will get updated pictures soon...

Welcome to the site Steve.

Steve, I'm new here myself. Seems to be a very knowledgable and friendly place to visit. I am also building a 27 t. How much is the chop? 8"?. I am going to chop mine 10" I think. I can get by with it because I'm only 5-9. I stepped my frame 14" in the back and 4" in the front. Going to have a 401/425 nailhead[won't know until I open it up}2x4 with a s/p 400 behind it. I saw a severly chopped 26/27 in the late 60's and thought it was the perfect hotrod. How did you set up your rear suspension? Nice car and welcome. TP

Steve, did you take out your top hinge? I can't tell in the picture. TP

 

[McKustoms]

Ya, took out the top hinge. Chopped it 8 inches. Rear is a 3 link setup...

I too remember you. Welcome to RRR.
