    5" kickup
    Pedal****y (under-floor) make unknown, Chrysler Valiant dual master.
    VW Kombi steering box and column

    Since the pics were taken, the trans cross-member has been bolted in to the frame, bolt-on steering arms have been added and I'm currently working on mounting the steering box and under-floor pedal****y.

    Nice work Bassman. Looks like good progress. Is that an original Ford axle that has been dropped?
     
  3. Thanks. No, it's a Chassis Engineering axle.
     
  4. Looks like you're off to a good start. Keep us posted, we want to follow along.

    Looks like there is another dropped axle leaning up against the wall. Is it for sale???

    Is that CE axle the forged one? With the 34 bones, looks pretty trad. What are your plans for the Tudor body? Chop, channel?
     
  8. The axle leaning against the wall is a dropped 32. It does'nt belong to me unfortunately, and I'd have to kill the owner to aquire it! :DThe body is already chopped 3", but will have no channel. My poor old creaky bones require more room than a channel would allow. There is a lot of rust in this body, but it has a****le, registration plates and a vin. The doors have had the bottom 8" completely replaced by a mate who's an awesome tin man, and the rest of the body I'll do myself once I get the frame finished.
