Re: new t head

Welcome to the forum! Look around the site and at the pictures. Visualize in your mind what you really want your end product to look like and that will lead you to a frame and body. I put my vision down on paper and modified it as the $$$$$ went up.

Re: new t head

welcome to the site tazz. if you do the wood yourself you have more control over how high or low you sit in the car. keep looking at pictures to get some idea of what you want. finding someone who has a t near you wouldn't be a bad idea if you could sit in one, you will know which choice to make.

Re: new t head

Welcome aboard Tazz. Just look around and get some ideas. I am doing mine from scratch and so far I only have about $1,500 invested. I should be able to do it all for about $5,000

Re: new t head

Welcome and I agree go to shows or friends and see how You fit a big factor is how tall you are for a good seating position.Seats in buckets are not usually adjustable.
