    I have been thinking of building a 30 hotrod for few years now.

    finally I bought a 30 coupe .
    this is what i have in mind .
    30 coupe chopped 3" , 3" channeld .
    Boling brothers 2-8 frame.
    272 y block or 289
    t5 tranny
    wide 5 wheels
    32 dash
    9" rear end
    32 grill
    i prefer to use hood , so i can register the car.
    I don’t want to modify the firewall .
    no previous experience with hotrods what so ever,
    restored 67 mustang eleanor replica , 65 fastback , 66 lincoln .
    help appreciated
    regards

    To get the engine to fit you may be able to flip the firewall backwards but I am pretty sure the chassis will have to be stretched, so you are going to probably have to fab up your own hood.
