406Rich,
Beautiful 37. Does the 406 describe the size engine you are running; if so, what brand?
Jack.

Mainly surface rust, still need to readdress some of the floor issues, not rusted thru but could poss replace it, and the rear valance at the bumper where it ties into the trunk needs some work still, it was a five year push, first engine was out of a 68 impala 307/turbo350, just ripped it out of the donor car and dropped it in til I finished a lot of other things, the turbo 350 was gone thru when I built the 406, and both installed the same time, ford eight inch, with a `67 carrier, 324 posi, home made harness, which is now being updated from ez-wire and some new gauges this year.Toys

Hey how wide is rear and what wheel off set did you use and tire size , They are in place just like I want . Now if I could figure out the front 2 inch drop or stock I will be set with the MII.

The rear was 61 wide wheel mounting flange to flange, I`ll have to get back to you on the wheels, memory tells me they are eight wide with a 5 inch offset but I`ll need to check to be sure, they memory thing is to full, I`ve purged a lot of of my head.Toys

What front suspension you running 35fordcoupe...?
I chose the magnum weedeater axle, 5.5 drop, with disc`s, vega box thru a GM column, 15 inch rims, rides excellent, no bump steer, only problem is the split wishbone, too low for my scrub line,( speed bumps and they don`t get along) I want to change to radius bars to the side rails maybe next year.Toys

Ok gang. It's been awhile. With everything that was going on taking care of my mom's affairs and making a few needed mods to the Healey, it was June before anything really got rolling on this...
