we are still doing all the fab work , the arms have not been cut to the correct length , bung need to be turned down on the mill and final measurements still need to be made , but to be dead honest im really proud of the design so far , the frame is about 90% tig wielded with minimal mig wielding . i will give a better run down of the plans and final design features later

we are using a 8.8 out of the Thunderbird super coupe , all brackets have been water jetted and the rear set up is a trunk mounted cantilever , im having the car built at BJ's racecars . he mostly does drag racing manifolds and race cars ( salt , drag , and road racing ) but he has had his part in building some very well known mini and fullsize trucks , even one with a build thread on this web site

Nice! Classics look sooo good laid flat out. Loving the work into the rear suspension. Front looks good too

Looks really good man. I'm using the same rear in one of my projects but its out of a Lincoln Mark VIII, same 8.8 tho.

thanks for all your comments , its still a work in progress but i have big plans for it . the plan so far is we are going to build a car that is basically pro-touring meets minitruckin ... i am building a 347 sbf fuel injected with 500hp all plumbing will be hard lines and all air and fuel will be swedgelok . every possible thing will be hidden on this car , i have built enough cars so far to know this one will be my best so far . might take a couple years but what the hell its only time and money . lol
