    Nice work, Glenn! I considered putting the C4 Corvette suspension in my '37 Ford but it was going to require more adapting than I had time for. Looking forward to more pics and reports of how it drives.

    Really like the chassis work Glenn!!! Very, very nicely done! Should handle like a slot car!

    Awesome piece of engineering Glenn, and thanks for the pics! Love the shop "helper" too... looks like he does a good job of keeping the engine warm!

    That chassis/power train combo is great! Looks like you've done some amazing fab work to date. Looking forward to seeing some more pictures as you get it assembled. That SS "V" spreader/grille guard is an interesting piece!
