Hi,
Just found this site and am looking forward to checking in regularly.

I've got a 41 Chevy Couple, 261 6 bored .080 over, 848 head, Howard valvetrain and cam, Jimmy rods, Fenton cast iron headers, Offy intake, Wayne valve covers and side plate. It's tied to a truck clutch and bellhousing with a saginaw 4speed from a V8 Monza. I've got a 57 chev rearend with 3.73 gears hanging on some dearched and reverse eye spings.
Originally I put dropped spindle supports, 50 chevy coils (cut 1) and 50 chev spindles and brakes. It also had a steering box out of a 66 chevelle.
I've since blown it apart and am installing a Mustang II. I liked the old way but had some monster bump steer that made the driving white knuckled to say the least.

John

John,

Welcome to H.A.M.B. from another Washingtonian. We have a 47 Chevy sedan, when I put the 235 back into it, that has been done similar to your coupe.
