    I have a few model A frames kicking around and was wondering if it is worth boxing and Zing a stock frame or would i be better off just building a tube frame? Any thoughts?

    I'd use the A frame but that's me. If I ever get the car I'm working on done, this is what I would like to do next.

    That's what I was thinking too. As of now i have 2 frames and 2 that are cut off 1 missing front 3rd and 1 missing rear 3rd.
    Would likely use the ones that are cut already.

    Like the thought of using the best A frame you have.

    The build is the part I'm most looking forward to. And it's a bit of a long haul to pick it up.
