Hey thats ok. I know my stuff doesn't please everyone but that is the great part of this board. We can all agree to just disagree! I have found stuff on here that I wouldn't have in my yard let alone drive on the street. But I just kept my opinions to myself. no need to down play someone elses dream. Thanks for the input!
 
Well 95% of the C4 vette has been parted out and sold. I have to get the last of the body off and the suspension out of the frame (sold the frame too!). I am hoping to have some free time next week to ***** what I have and what I will need to knock this idea out. I have the front and rear suspension, 35 truck cab (junk roof) 5 lengths of 2x3 .120 box, 3 lengths of 1 5/8 DOM, 32 ford front rails and boxing plates, a cad 500 motor, th400 BOP trans, b&m shifter, a hammer, sawzall, welder, weld up lakes header kit for a BBC, etc. Will need radiator, steering column, grill shell, master cylinder, time and ambition. Aparently I won't need much money! [cl[;)
 
What I envision being deteriorated all to hell.

Real 32 ford type front frame rails would not be required. The lowest body line on the car was perfectly flat front to rear (no graceful swoop like a real 32). Frame could all be done with rectangular tubing.

this is what I was thinking of in the rear. Not sure how shiney it will be. Depends on how ambitious I am! I like the fact that it has no fibreglass spring and just uses coil overs
