Jim Paxton's 1937 Ford Fordor Convertible
Here’s the body being dropped onto the completed TCI chassis. Dennis Overholser is proud of the uncut firewall, and there’s now only 1/4 inch at each end of the engine. Dennis spent a lot of time getting this one right, blocking the engine in place and custom-fabricating the engine perches. TCI supplied the chassis with boxed rails, IFS, TCI’s own sway bars, spindles, and disc brakes, and a pair of Pro Shocks to absorb Texas chuckholes. Out back, a Ford 9 with 3.00 gears rests on parallel leaf springs and Pro Shocks. A Mustang II power rack steers the car via Borgeson joints and a factory column.
