27 Tudor Questions

My buddy has a 27 Tudor body for sale, already chopped & channelled. I've had my heart set on building a T Bucket, but by the time I am done building that we should have another rug rat to haul along...

I've got 2 questions:

1. Can I build a Tudor on a square model T style frame? Part of what I like about the buckets is the simple frame & I'd like to build it myself.

2. Can I build it with a fairly low stance & still have a back seat? I'd like to be able to take the whole family out on cruise night...

Any back seat pics would be real helpful too.

Thanks
S.

Ditto on the "yes and yes" ...not a lot of room in back mind you but for a little kid no problems. Had a friend a long time ago that had what was called a '27 T "phone booth" he hauled his wife and 2 little kids all over the place in it. Now he was about 5'7" so his front seat was up a bit, if you're not 6'6" then you should be ok.
