I got the header from ebay for $100. Actually seems to be good quality.

+2! Though I've never had one I gotta say that the idea of having a Cadillac motor in a hot rod has always put a smile on my face for some reason. Awesome ride! [cl

I didn't like the first motor mounts so I cut them out and started over.
I cut the mounts out of 1/4" square tubing. Drilled bolt holes and welded it up.
Fabbed up a trans mount too. Now to figure out a drive shaft.

The front end on those things are the essence of cool. Two thumbs up and a Fonzarelli "Ehhhhhhh".

Finished rebuilding the front suspension. Left side upper control arm was loose and both lower ball joint I were shot.
Got a kit from Kanter seems like a good kit for the money. I did notice the tie rod ends were much smaller. Oh well!
