    thanks

    and as for the comments on the negative side is coming from guys that are jelous they do not have a cool car like that and the talent to own one
    so @$%@% them:D
     
  2. Looks fine to me. Maybe all the people with the negative remarks can post picks of the ones they've done. I don't have room to say anything to anybody. Mine car is sitting in the back yard getting nothing done at all. I think we all should practice this, if all you gonna do is rag somebody's work, keep your mouth shut unless they ask for opinions. Or simply say, not my cup of tea but I hope you enjoy you car.
     
  3. Hey lets face it ,theres more than one way to chop a car! Thank goodness not everyone does it the same!! I M H O the whole thing would come together better if it was lowered a bunch.

    I agree with you 100% on getting it lower. The problem I have is when I had it 2 inches lower in the back the driveshaft was hitting the tunnel and the rear crossmember. I had to raise the car to keep the driveshaft from banging. We had modified the tunnel by narrowing it so we could fit a set of Tbird buckets in the car. When it got narrower it got lower. Fixing the tunnel is easy, we'll just raise it at the back. I'm still figuring out what to do about the crossmember.
