Nice fab work. Are you using a chop saw for the miter cuts on the rectangular tubing?Congrats on the show win!

 

[dogpatch1]

thanks guys.
bob, yes i use a chop saw on the cuts also have a table mounted band saw that is ajustable that i use sometimes. but the chop saw is a little more accurate. each joint has 4 plug welded plates inside and will get gussets also.

made some leaf spring frame mounts, the comp. engineering slider kit for the rear axle is pretty trick lets the spring slide so the ladder bars dont cause a binding pivot point. [also did some more on the trans mount/ladder bar crossmember. if i paint them thar ladder bars yellow will ya'll see 'em? [ddev

should have the narrowed 9 inch back this week

i really like this build. been gethering stuff to do this to a 69 rambler, not going to alter the wheel base but will cut the rear quarters for bigger tires. got to choose between two motors, a 460/c6 ford or a 455/th400 olds, either way it will be set back 12" and will be a blast.
