Just do it.. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[Yo Baby]

No guts no gory.

[hillbillyhellcat]

There is one for sale just like that by my house for $3500, probably about $1800 more than it's worth. I was thinking of doing the same thing, so it sounds like a kickass idea to me! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[mercury Bill]

Stright axle....YES, teardrop hood YES, Big block HELL YES... nice fairlane

[BARNETT]

NOOOOOOO!!!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif I dig it the way it is, man. is it a hard top? How come nobody ever rolls down the rear windows, of hard tops, for pics?

[Slag Kustom]

only tough part might be setting up the steering to the stock box. the sawzall is you friend

[mercury Bill]

Steering wont be that bad, same as my comet. Are you going to leave the small block in it?

[4t64rd]

Wait... it's coming...

Don't be a boring turd just do it! I've seen the cars the Greazy Hubcaps drive and know you can make it happen. You've got five weeks to get it done till the HAMB drags!

[mercury Bill]

Bad ass, and quick too.

[BARNETT]

hmmmm...looks like I'm in the minority here, yet again. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif Not that it pertains to your current "dilema", but, I think it would look cool with dumps tubes as well, and run the exhaust out the back.

Now...back to all the "just do it" comments.... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[63CadGuy]

Put a straight axel under it. Love those straight axel cars, my next project is going to be a straight axel car.

Don't freak out about the steering hookup. You can build a column out of the original that will hook up to whatever box you use.

I've done it, so I know you can too. All it takes is a saw, a grinder, and a bearing from your local bearing supply (5 bucks or so).

[Brooding Swede]

DO IT!!!!! after talking last night with you and reading this post your so right. I'll measure the staight axle off the 46 and if it will fit it yours. Later and stay posted for the swedes update and progress photos. BS http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[BoomBoom]

Do It VT! It would totally give your car a whole new attitude! Aint nothin like that ready to hop gasser stance! Put some weights in the trunk and its wheely time! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[ratster]

Now what would you go and do that for? I'd pro street it and put on some centerline wheels haha JUST DO IT! need any help just let me know, I know an out of work forklift mechanic that needs a job.

[k-member]

Well if ya do, do it, it it might look a little like this..

[radical56chevy]

do it man..ya gonna do a tilt front also?that would be kinda tuff looking.. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[mercury Bill]

Steering, on my comet i just have to run a tie rod from the box to the passenger side wheel the lower drag link will steer the driver side. No mods at all to the pitmen arm, no box relocation, very simple. Tilt front end?? You definatly want to do subframe connectors. Tilt frontends on unibody cars suck, just an oppinion.

[mercury Bill]

Exactly!!!

[mercury Bill]

You can use the stock box. On my comet it lines up perfectly

[BARNETT]

Nice shirt,K-Member! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[atch]

yeah, do it. and if i ever get to ride in it i want it to go just like 4t6 shows it.

sorry we didn't hook up the other day. maybe next time.

[Sam F.]

quit posting on the HAMB and get out in the garage and DO IT!!!
that gif. of it RULES, man that car will be so FREAKIN awesome,do it already!!!!!



DO IT!

[prime mover]

I'm pretty sure I'm going this route too, I'm just trying to figure out a way to keep granada disc brakes on. the main reason for me was to take some weight off I'd like a little drop in the axle so it wont be up in the clouds.
go for the teardrop hood and a 64 fiberglass front bumper.
