Decent progress, got the old partial dash rail cut out, trimmed and installed the new Brookville unit. The cowl to old tank top had about a 1/2"...
You remember what spring combo you used?
If mine sits like that I'll be 100% happy, I'm using 7.50s on the back and wouldn't mind a little more rake than what you have, but I'll take it...
I'm starting out by giving my self as much room as possible, so flat floor into the flat firewall for now. If I see that leg space won't be an...
Yeah that thought has crossed my mind as well, just heard to Believe those would be rusted on this body, but agreeing is possible. The story I got...

Same thought I have, it's a very odd one that I haven't ran across. Toyota maybe? It was under an old 30. Body I bought for parts
I believe I have a 8" Ford. But I can't find anything in pictures of this wheel end setup. Interesting enough the third member has a modern style...
