bag mounts

I think Im going to use the gambino custom bottom brackets there only 1 1/2" or so tall and 2500 bags that are 2.8"empty by 8.5"full so Im figuring 4.5"s from top of axle to get my frame height,(to see how tall of c notch I need)does that way of thinking seem right to you? also debating on the new higher bags that go to 10" full witch did you use if you dont mind?

finally the frame is done...

 

[46carnut]

I have not worked on my car for a few months and just started on the body today. I am going to make the body fit the frame which I mean the trunk fit the step notch and I also cut out the rust for the wheel wells.

 

[46carnut]

The trunk is almost finished.

Hay guy's I'm back and working on my car, My Grand Cherokee went down so I had to build another motor, turned out as a great build, so no back to the stuff that counts. I have been cutting rust and placed it on the roticery.

 

[Dirtyrat]

Man, somehow I missed this whole build? grrr.

Anyhow, great body you picked for this build!

I love the fastback style. My '42 Chevy is similar, it has a 455 olds though.
