406Rich,

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

Jack.

Sweet ride, 406!!! Sorry I don't have any info on your front end. I'm running Mustang II in mine.

Thanks Randy, and Jack yes it is 406 chevy smblock, stock bottom end four bolt, its a soft block, only cause that is what was laying around at the time of the buildup, also 202 fuelies, that have been with me now for some 35 years, 7/16 screw in studs, roller rockers, flycut spring pockets for 1.8 spring diameter, mild port (bowls) unshrouded valves, manley street valves, unilite dist, edelbrock RPM, holley 670, sig erson gear drive, really dated but does build power for all it needs.

Rich ?? Now that is some serious machine your sporting there . How long did it take and how clean was body when you found it .

[406Rich]

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.

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.

Here`s a shot of the car just before the tired 307 came out in `03



New 406 going in a week later after the trans was done, although we now have a 670 avenger on it, and ended building my own alt mount down low on the left side, store bought one didnot work, and the hedders interfered with the wishbone, running ramhorns for right now, I`m looking at Sandersons CC11 to fit, I just need one more measurement from them to confirm.

mine has a MII. I was surprised reading you are that low in front with a solid axle. I hope to bolt my front fenders on real soon to get a look at how it sits. are those 15's in back too? what size tire?
