heres all the pics from the old thred
this is Hoptup Jalop's 52 chevy weve been working on ,it has a fatman altra low,gambino taildrager ,and a new product weve been working on ,"lil dave's" aka motor mounts !

we've been monting the top for bars of the tri link on the front of the rear end housing ( instead of on top )to give us more clearance under the rear seat

and we've moved the botom bars to the bottom of the frame instead of in the midle of the frame

not 100% happy with the bottom bar that low to the ground but it words far better in athere areas

Alex , thanks for all the very detailed shots of the work by your crew .
I always appreciate the fact that you earn your living from this work and still take the time to show us how to do it for ourselves ..........

those welds look killer.

and the f.u. car does look bad ass in the background.

 

I think it worked out well. just curious, do you plan to reinstall the rear seat over the diff link upper mounts and driveshaft tunnel?

 

WOW!! FUCKING WOW!!!!!!! amazing stuff guys, i can only hope that my 51 chevy will look as good as this!!! so inspiring!!
