    I have 1" clearence between the cowl and the wishbone I think that should be enough. I would also like to put a different dash in it something in the 40's-50's not sure though.

    Looks like decent progress. I just wouldn't want to hit a bump in that thing and smack those frame horns all to $%#@.

    Your making great progress!

    How much suspension travel do you have in the front?

    From the angles of these pictures, it appears as though you'll need to put a spacer between the front leaf spring and the chassis to keep the front axle from hitting the chassis.
