This is interesting. A bug build is still on my list.

What did flipping the leaf springs do to the pinion angle?

Well I knew it would have to change so I the cut mount plates off to flip the axle to the top.[
When it gets close to finish I'll set it and weld it.[

[soltz]

Not a lot done this week The shops been in the high 90's all week and i'm a bit of a whus
Floor out, Roof off [
More think time needed

And, I am thinking about taking the door space out and sure enough, if you can think something it will be on the ole internet

 

[bob w]

That's plenty of work in the heat.

 

[Torchie]

It’s really getting hard to come up with something that hasn’t been done before Soltz. Don’t let that stop you.
That’s one of the reasons I go for odd ball stuff when I build now. I don’t think the world needs yet another chopped 49-51 Mercury.
If I ever get to another build I’m considering a hand built body or some sort of Roth type Fiberglas build.
But that’s a big IF at this point.
