    I would really like to see how you modified and mounted the front wishbone...is it split and mounted underneath, or unsplit?...pics?

    ahh...nevermind :p
    I remember in the early part of this build, boz was talking about splitting the bones and mounting them underneath to resemble unsplit bones...and he also said something about modifying the front of the bones at the seam.

    What did you do to your rear spring? The stance is dead on.

    I used a 1926-27 Ford T rear spring with a couple of leaves removed.

    Well, it runs. Ignition switch went bad and it ran out of what little gas I had. So, I'll fix the switch tomorrow and put more has in it. Lol ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1411614582.940774.jpg

    I would have guessed the front tires are 5.00/5.25x16 Firestones...they look smaller than 5.50x16
