Now that I have RETIRED at last. I plan to live in my shop everyday I don't have to chase parts. I have the eng.& trans in the frame, working on the rear end. I'm using a 55 Dodge Baby hemi /A833 OD, And a 59 Plymouth 8 3/4 with 3:31 gears. I am looking forward to this. Lee
Sounds like a great plan. Post some build pics when you can. Here is a pic of my 30 5 window with a 54 Red Ram Hemi.
Good luck with that, I spent the first three months when I retired doing all the things to the house my wife had been wanting done. Spent the last 8 months on what was supposed to be a quick and dirty paint job on my mild custom 60 T Bird, turned into a total rebuild. Was going to get back on my V8 A after I painted the Bird, still a month or so away. Oh well it'll still be there later.
Well you should be. Just from experience there will always be things to rob your time so every minute you can spend in the shop should be cherished.
I've got some of the honey- do's done, but she will find more. I am running the stock radiator shell ,gl*** will be untinted. Right now I have to muck out the shop , I can't see the floor. The next job is redoing the wood. Lee
