I believe that's correct, but give them a call and verify. Would give some extra clearance.Quote:

Ken, Now I'm scared! Those women are hitious! Uncle Bob, the little red one's ok, but not any of Ken's recent beauties! I just woke up, turned on the computer, hit the club hot rod email link, and nearly spit my morning coffee out! New definitions for Coyote Ugly. Very cruel! Is it April fools?:3dSMILE: :3dSMILE:
Don, on the truck I'm guessing I'm looking at maybe 4-6ft cables to relocate in the bed, or behind the seat! I bought a beefy battery based on the distance and big engine. It has something like 770 CCA at zero F, and 1000 CCA @32F. I figure more power the better, with long cables!:)
Yeah, if you have room for a bigger battery Steve it will be better in the long run. If this tiny one hadn't been available I would have really been scrambling to find something to fit........I had almost zero room for the battery.

They all get prettier at closing time. :HMMM: :D :DQuote:

Miss May looks like her face was on fire and someone put it out with a tire chain . . .
Thanks for the pictures of pretty ladies guys, keeps my heart working. :D Even Bob came through with a winner for a change. :cool: :D
Well, Dan has posted some pictures of his current progress on the other forum, so I am cleared to post some here. For the past month we have been sorting out the rear suspension. What should have been pretty simple has been a bit of a challenge, mainly because Dan gets involved with little details that take so much time to work out. I have to admit though it is looking pretty trick.
To recap, he is using a complete backhalf kit from Auto Weld that is normally used on prostockers and prostreet cars. It is comprised of two custom made mandrel bent rails (that we shortened quite a bit), a big tube 9 inch rear axle housing, a four bar set up, and two Posies superslide quarter eliptic springs. He didn't want it to look like it belonged on a prostreet car, so he tossed the original mounting plates and built new ones, and shorted the housing mounts way down. Now it looks a little cleaner and less modern.
One little thing he did that took so much time was he modified the frame tabs he built and added some welded on sections so that they would look like old Ford rivit on brackets. They are actually fully welded on, and the rivits are just cosmetic. We also had to shorten the four bars to move the rear axle up, but he has ordered correct sized ones in chrome from Pete and Jakes. The whole setup on there now is just for mock up.
Then we mounted the Posies springs, and he has temporarily made mounts to hold the frame end on. He is still figuring out what he wants to do there.
Here are some pictures of how we did the brackets and all. (I say WE, but my role has been mainly helping to turn the frame over 100 times :D )

Then of course we had to see what the weight of the engine and body would do to ride height, so we installed them. It pretty much sits where he wanted it.
He also got a top kit from Speedway and is going to use it. I think it makes the whole car look better.

Don---Some very impressive work, I was looking at it earlier today over on that "other" forum. Does your son really intend the top of his side window opening to run downhill towards the rear of his side window?
Not as drastic as it is in the taped up version Brian. We saw the exact same top frame used on a rod at the show last Saturday, and Dan took lots of pictures of it. We also got the name of the local upholsterer who made the covering for it.
Here is a picture of that top.
