Good work Chris!
Yikes!
Any other updates? The level of craftsmanship on this is on whole different level. @Littleman, you are one impressively talented human.
@mad mikey you took the stickers off?

This is the look I’m going for… A video of it in testing: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/w77nFzlbVtQ [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
This looks like it’s going to be awesome! To be honest, I’m joining this party way late, so I’ve only seen the first and last page. Looks like...
I was joking…hence the emoji after the statement
Ahhhh…in that case…put in a straight axle!o_O
I am very emotionally attached to both of mine. Neither will ever be sold…by me.
It’s a beautiful car by the way
If it were me…keep the straight axle and replace the kingpins. Really isn’t much wrong with stock front ends.

Hahahaha…son of a bitch didn’t leave any gas in it. I had to fuel it up before his celebration of life. The old man wins again!

Thank you Marty, and you and Warhorse are both correct, these are things that can be put back if need be.
Everybody body panel on this car is original to it except for the running boards, they are fiberglass. I think the old man has the originals...
Not crass at all, I asked for advice, thank you
You are absolutely correct in that manner. I know some things he wanted to change but just never did. I know this is probably more in my head...
Quick Edit: Just noticed these pics are from when it had a turbo 400. It started life with a Muncie 4 speed, and thats what is in it now. We...
Hello all…I’m looking for a little advice. My father passed away back in April, and in the sake of brevity, I will just say he was my best friend...
