    This video should be seen by all who are asking about sticking with the traditional 3-speed Ford Gear Box (Nothing Wrong with that) or the Driveability (and fun) of a 5 Speed. Again, Thanks for taking us all on your ride!

    Sweet ride, and I agree about the 5 speed, I have one in my '40 coupe with a sbf.
    But in all my years of working, I never had a comutte that short!

  22. It's a daily struggle but I deal with it the best I can, the one stop sign really gets me stressed tho. Lol

    Damn I was having fun. Got a little bummed when you started to slow down for the driveway.

    Thanks for the ride!

    Surprising amount of "line of sight" for a chopped car. VERY cool video. Thanks.

  29. Thanks, I put a lot of thought and time into the steering set up. It's a BMW box and I made the pitman arm from scratch. I got pretty lucky it has no noticeable bump steer in it.

  30. That's the only bad thing about living so close to my work, not enough cruising miles.
