I'd bolt a Chevy II mill to a S10 4x4 5 speed and run one of CrazyDaddyo's torque-tube adapters. Drop the Axle, and run later stubs and lincoln brakes all round.
later - if you desire - rebuild and hop up the original mill, and retro fit it to the car.

Waiting for the the title to come back in my name before i do anything. IL loves to put it to us on titles. The car came with clean paper work and title. Title does match the frame and the body has been tagged by IL already, but ya never know.

I got the title back finally. Pulled the body, sold the engine/trans. I now have the frame stripped down and on the table. Hopefully get the crossmembers welded up today and some holes plugged. I have some boxing plates on the way. Going with a S10 rear end, cause 8" Maverick/Mustangs are hard to locate around here. Hopefully have it back on the ground in the next few weeks.

Haven't posted any updates in awhile. Rolled the chassis out and swept up shop today. Thought i'd update my thread.
Stock boxed frame with 36 bones split upfront. 296V8 dropped my axle for me and will do many more. F1 shock mounts bent for fender clearance. I am running disc. Out back i have 36 rods with a 65 Mustang rear and the not so traditional coilovers. I did step the rear frame up like the Tardell's did. SBC with a 350 turbo trans. The rear end has a 2.80 gear. Might have to change that later. ![]() ![]() ![]()

Nice. Are you planning to add a torque arm to the rear suspension?

HRP I'm leaning that way. I really liked this 29 i saw at Frog Follies. Loved the way it sat so low in the front.
