Customs 1960 FB Holden Wagon update

A good day at the engineers on Monday, the roof chop, chassis mods and engine fit up were signed off on. The mounts for the Chrysler torsion bar front suspension are in place and we will begin the task of fabricating 2 half door skins, one complete near side front door skin and the radiator frame over the next couple of weeks. Progress will speed up a little now the major part of the work is out of the way.

Hey, your photo is upside down.

Cheers from across the ditch.

 

He's going to run "a warm 360 ci Chrysler small block".

 

Sounds like an interesting project.
for the guys not familiar a stock FB Wagon looks like this

 

i'm not quite sure why BUT i think i like it,but i would have to lower it..

 

The engine fit up is a small block Chrysler/Dodge 360 hooked to a 727 Chrysler transmission and Ford rear end lifted from an Aussie built Ford XR8. All of the mounts to hang a Chrysler torsion bar are in place, we will use genuine fan belts etc also

 

jeez that thing is gonna be mean!
