    Does anyone have a drawing of a 30/31 sedan Z'd frame 2x3 or 2x4 that they can post or send to me, I want to do a Z 4" front and like a 12" rear, my issue is trying to do rear suspension and leave some room back there for luggage.

    Thank You...

    Run straight frame rails to the back and put the rear axle on top, that'll give you a lot more room!

    here's a 30-31 sedan frame that Mac's Ratz builds.

    That is a interesting rear suspension, WOW... a little complicated for me, maybe just a 4 link with short arms. Hmmm...:confused:

    If you can build a frame with a Z you can build that frame.

    OK, I found it, but can't seem to get it in Photo bucket... I will send it to you email. I'm a 1st time frame builder, so please do your home work. I do not want you to think that a drawing makes me a pro. I wanted a back seat, so I went for as much room as I could get. Might not be enough, but it is there...
    Here are a couple of pic's
