How many mounting points to the subrail is there on the entire body itself? Still trying to get this answer. I figure... 1. At the lower A...
You're showing your age dude! Of course you can do what you please, it's your car, but I think if you channel it, you'll regret it.

Amen brother! Thanks again!
I agree....I have a '39 Ford 3 speed behind my little chevy. Now thats traditional!

That saying sounds cool, but thats about it...
Flattys are cool and all, but if you go that way, you aint going to be going anywhere in a hurry.
Dan, dont take this the wrong way, but you really need to get "un-welding challenged" I couldnt build a thing without being a good welder....

Big Duece, thanks man! Appreciate the pic.

I bought a 32 5 window coupe body. It was chopped long ago, like in the 50's. I am trying to figure out exactly how much was chopped. Can...
Thanks for your time and effort posting these!
Bobby definitely knows what he's doing. He used to work at SoCal Speed Shop. But bad-ass he is. And also a good Texas boy!
I think I will go with the complete welded assembly. The cost to ship is going to be a bitch, but I think it is the way to go. Lots less work and...
