    Hey Sphynxter, yeah you can just mount the axle to the frame but it looks awhole bunch cleaner if you just whack the frame off just past the steering box. Plus it just looks badass-er.

    I do agree on the badass looks R. Seghister. Wondered if it was more for looks than function either way it was damn sure worth is.

    I was just curious. I would in the future like to build one. The straight axel would be a must do for me. Like anyone on here there are a ton of projects I would like to take on however a 55 or 56 chevy are still pretty obtainable cars. I have had a couple but everytime I see a nose high 55 I get emotional. So I was just asking a simple question. I actually got a pm from another member who told me to just ask the guy whos actually built one not the guy who pays someone to build it. :D

    I didn't see that one Johnny but I'm sure there was a humorous jest in that post ... somewhere.

    Really looking forward to seeing this one in person one more time. It was already supercool but you really knocked it out of the park on the re-do.

    FALSE ALARM !!! As I thought, they're in Paint Shop jail. My painter has them and you know how hard they can be to get ahold of.
