    OK, I am about to get on a new project !

    1954 Mainline '54 Ford 2dr post, Tube straight axle & transverse spring with hair pins.

    '59 Pontiac Rear & a DeSoto Hemi & 4 spd.

    I would really like to see if anyone out there has any pics of this body done up in early~Mid '60s gasser drag trim.

    I have seen the 'GLASSER GASSER', But not much else & i know they werent the most popular car to do.... But $500.00 for a real nice car minus engine if figured what the Hell.

    If you can post some here for all to see that would be cool for everyone, If ya cant post (like me :D ) send them to DESOTO6X2@AOL.COM

    Thanks for the time and post up some pics !!!!!!!!!!

    Looks like the wheel wells didnt even need to be cut.

    How wide is that 9" flange to flange ? I have a '59 Pontiac rear that is 55" flang to flange with 15x8.5 Americans & want to run a 9" slick.

    Almost looks like it will fit under the stock body... HMMM ?

    Got a pic of the front suspension ?

    Anyone have any more info on this particular gasser? Bc I currently own it coincidentally [emoji23] its definitely staying a gasser. I just cut the front clip off and built a new one. (I'm in between shops at the moment, so I'm stuck working in the driveway at my pops house--but hey, progress is progress [emoji106])
