Looks stout to me.

Is the bulldog going to ride there permanently?

Eventually that is going to be the plan! I have another that the eyes light up on for a third brake light too!

After being a golf pro all summer and my son being born October 15th I am finally back at building my 47 ford. I have suspension well on its way and motor mounts mocked up. Now I am trying to figure out steering on the cheap.

Aside from vega boxes does anyone have a recommendation for a box and steering column that are easy to come by for cheap? I'm hoping for power steering so my wife will drive it too otherwise I would probably go with a cowel setup.

Thanks in advance,

Gary

'79 - '84 Toyota 4x4 PU box. They had manual and power boxes if you can find one.

Hum, that steering box gives me something to think about on my project. Looking good, and I like that setup.

That steering box looks great, now to find one lol. What steering column did you use?

What about this looks too stout to you? Just curious. Would rather change something now if needed rather than once I have more things finished

I didn't say it looks too stout, I just said it looks stout. Really. The frame looks like it will handle anything that comes its way without difficulty.

Awesome, makes me feel better! I was taking a look through and after re-reading that, I had to check lol. Thanks for the input!

Sorry, I missed a few posts here.

I stole the pic from the 'net, no idea what the column is.
