    Your my new hero Bobby! Doing 2 at the same time, your a real man!

    That is at least some good news on the truck Randy, at least you can drive it safely now!

    Hey Dave, Mike, Bobby, Robert, Rich and all the rest or you guys who follow or have contributed to this thread.............thanks for all the support, advice, kudos and encouragement over the last year! When the car finally gets finished it will be because all of you have helped in one way or another. For that I'm grateful!

    Randy here is some more support for you to start the tinkering again on the 37 . I have someone doing all the set up and sheet metal I will finish it . He has began with the TCI rear parallel leafs and the MII front end . he will also set the engine and trans in and build the fire wall . If it wasn't for him it would still be tarped up .

    Oh this is a 255-75-15 on a rim with a 3 3/4 Off set , I have a set that is 4 1/2 Off set which I think will bring the big tires in and end up with no fender edge rub . If not I will have to get to the drawing board . Also don't know yet how they will fill the well and settling on the springs ???? Help right now I think he said they set about 3 or 2 3/4 inches from where the body will be back on frame . Once I put the disc's on this rear ( 59 1/4 mount to mount ) will add about 1/2 inch per side .

    Bobby I ran a tape from the frame rail out to the front edge of the tire, I`m at 12.5 inches, and I know we have differant offsets, and rear axle width, just trying to give you an idea.

    Maybe you could store it at a friends house until you get rid of one of the others....

    It's looking good, Bobby!!! I'm jealous!

    What's the width of your rear end? width of the rims? Mine has a 58 Ford rear which is 57.25 between the wheel mounting surfaces. I currently have 17x8 rims, 3.75" back spacing with 255/55/17 tires. I could still space them out at least 3/4 inch and still not rub the fenders. Not sure that I'll keep those wheels but may that'll help some.

    Rich, your car looks so sweet in that pic!!! Love it!
