Tim, have you ever taken 412 toward Springdale in AR? There is/was a great little junkyard along there in AR. I saw several '30's cars but i was in a big rig and could not stop.

I have but its been awhile, I haven't been past the state line east on 412 in years..
I ran up by Springfield Missouri a couple years ago to pick up an old Farmall tractor, found a salvage up there that had about 10 acres of "brown roofs"..looked like mostly 40's stuff from what I could see driving by..There is still alot of tin out there, but a person has to get off the interstate..

Still crazy after all these years!
The crossmember is extra nice.[cl More work but it is paying off. A couple Chevelles showed up at the Thursday night picnic with the same blower as yours. There was lots of whining and roaring resulting in black marks on the pavement and a rubber haze in the air.
You have that to look forward too.

Maybe a high rise sheet metal intake made out of the chair?
Now you hit it on the head! A Bonehead Original intake with the runners wrapped in that seat fabric!

Got a few minutes the other day and cut out the center of the floor so I can get started on my tunnel..Nothing picture worthy yet though..Space in the back is limited..Trying to make room in the back for a 10 gallon fuel cell that I already have..The 11 gallon spun aluminum tank from speedy bill will fit with less effort, if they ever get them off of backorder..
thanks for lookin..

Woohoo.. Got a couple hours of shop time Sunday morning..I had already started bench building an X brace to go in my frame, so Sunday I concentrated on finishing it and building a removeable tranny crossmember..crossmember is 2" x 2" 11 gauge..
the bolt holes on the ends are sleeved with 3/4" OD DOM..I drilled 4 holes for the slots and would have just connected them with my plasma but since my air compressor is dead I have no plasma at the moment, so I brought it to work and will mill between the holes to make my slots..I know its not a big update, but hey, I'm happy for any progress at this point
