hi all, bought a Australian delivered 55 4 door belair at the end of last year and plans are to turn it into drag car gasser. pretty much bought it as a roller and the floor was no good in it so i cut all the shit out and going to fabricate a whole new floor and fire wall. ive put new sils in and started on the roll cage first, then will build the floor around it. the car is also being converted from a 4 door to 2 door. here are some photos of progress so far cheers tom

427 Ls with a twin carb set up, I have the motor all built already which was going in a different car but plans changed so I'm going to use it, if not I would of built something more period correct, but still should be a lot of fun Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Roll cage mounted to the body would not pass NHRA tech. It must be welded to the frame since it has a frame. If this is a street car and is just for looks.... Carry on. Sent from my LG-H343 using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
