    I've never built a car like this before, so I am trying to get visuals of how it all goes together.

    Thanks, looks sweet!

    Excellent work! [​IMG]

    I like the way you filled the notch for the steering shaft to pass under the bottom of the frame, and the gusset on your support bracket. Should hold up well, and it looks safe, while still showing true home-built flavor!!

    What are ya gonna POWER that heap with???

    Thanks a ton for those pics.
    The steering box I have is very similar the three mounting bolts are the same but the side cover is different.
    Does any one have pics of steering boxes very close to the same as that one.

    I am also using 48 running gear, but I've got quarter eliptics up front.
