not in any sort of order

 

damn

 

Now this is my kind of build! Turnin trash to treasure!

I love it!

 

thanks for the positive comments . I am stuck far from my shop so I thought why not post some pics. this build has been going on for a few years . I am using this for practice as I have a few gems tucked away.

 

I need a rear window for a convertible . please pm me if you can help.


also ....do I need special bolts to mount my torque converter . ....68 C4?

 

I like dropping the top frame to "chop" it. I wonder, how much did you drop it? I figured I'd drop mine 5" or so, but I'm guessing that wouldn't be enough.

 

11 1/2 " from the stock mount straight down to the rear fender bolt hole. I am going to cut the bows to mount it just above the fender line so if I ever drive it I can get insurance with fenders.

 

wow , you do some beautiful work a real steel artist , great thread

 

thanks captain. this is mostly first time stuff for me . self taught with internet info .

 

got the body back on the frame today . still trying to figure outa gas tank that wont eat up all the room in the back

thanks leon !

 

looking good, like them post and top

 

Cool family cruiser !!!

 

A factory converter should have studs on it. The proper nuts to secure it to the flexplate are flanged, distorted thread lock nuts.

 

Ho. Lee. Shit.

Dang you're kickin' butt!!!

 

thanks . I had since checked the converter and all the bits are there . you are right , studs w/nuts. I am going to need some more advice when it comes time for the passing gear hook up.


thanks for the compliments guys. it helps motivate!
