Deluxe 1927 T-Bucket Frame Kit w/ Deluxe Body, No Floor

Looking for a little more interior room and a lower profile in your T roadster? Then try our Deluxe 27 T! The all-new Deluxe 27 frame features the same triangulated four-bar rear suspension as the Deluxe T, but with a longer wheelbase and extended rear frame section to accommodate Speedways high-quality fiberglass 27 T roadster body. The body-and-frame combo can be used to build a hot rod with the same open engine bay and fenderless look of a T-bucket, but offers a lower seating position and a lot more legroom. Try it on for size!

Shown with optional rearend and engine mounts installed. This part number does not include a rear axle housing or engine/transmission mounts (as pictured). If you wish to add these items to your chassis, simply purchase these items along with your frame kit.

Rear Axle Housing Option:

Part# 715700 - Speedway Ford 9 Inch Rear Axle Housing Kit for T-Bucket Chassis, 31-Spline, 56 Inch Width.

• Includes an all-new housing, tubes and new-style big Ford ends, lifetime warranty, 31-spline axles with dual bolt pattern (5 on 4.5" and 5 on 4.75") and new axle bearings.
• Necessary suspension brackets will be welded to the housing, according to which chassis you order.
• Option is only available with the purchase of a T-Bucket frame.
• Center section NOT included.

Engine / Transmission Crossmember options available:

Part# 715500 - Small Block Chevy and TH350 Auto Trans Mount Option For T Frame Kit

• This T frame kit option includes tubular engine and transmission crossmembers welded into a '23 or '27 T-Bucket frame. Will accept S/B Chevy engine and TH-350 or TH-400 transmissions.

Part# 715600 - Small Block Ford and C4 Auto Trans Mount Option for T Frame Kit

• This T-frame option will include tubular engine and transmission crossmembers welded into your '23 or '27 T-Bucket chassis. Will accept S/B Ford engine and C-4 transmission only.
• Due to clearance issue with the Vega steering box, you will need to either remote mount the oil filter or make use of the 90 degree oil filter adaptor # 910-6880.

Note: When ordering either of these options with a T-Bucket frame kit, the frame will be shipped with these crossmembers welded to it.  As such, this engine/transmission crossmember option must be ordered with a T frame kit.   This is not available separate of a T frame kit.

Doors are shipped hinged and latched, but they do require fitting and hanging onto the body by the owner.

All of our T kits are also available with chrome suspension. This option includes chrome plated: front and rear hairpins, rear coilovers, front axle, front leaf spring, front shocks, steering arms, tie rod, drag link, and related hardware.

This product requires a 3-4 week build time.
