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
