When you figure out how to balance the time vs money deal, PLEASE let me in on the secret!!!!!!

Mocking things up on the 'maro for now, when I get the cage and other components installed, gonna set in up on the scales and put the engine where it does the best on weight distribution.... Looks like Mike Forte can get me a shifter positioned just about anywhere I need it....!!!!!!!

Then paint it, wire it, fire it up, install the FOR SALE signs!!!!!!!!

Don't have any Fastbacks right now those are the ones I have had and sold in the last 5 years . Something better comes along or different sell and buy . Though selling the 390 to get the 37 , well still have set backs over that one this last 9 months .

What is the difference between a mercury 2 door coupe and a leadsled

"leadsled" is slang for a significantly customized car, has nothing to do with brand or model year.

Like the avatar pic Bob , I like the new blue on the 09 Ford truck here lately . Sure am trying hard not to stop at the dealer just don't like the new style .

But picking a color will be all American made choice here .

Same here; my son about had a stroke when I sold my 70 Monte Carlo SS to build a fat fendered rod, but that's the only way I can afford to move to the next project. How's the 37 coming along?

I would get both the Jav and a Fastback. Here's my 70 AMX and 68 Fastback.
I've had the AMX since 1975.

hey evolvo nice tin work did you roll them beads or use a pullmax

Tin work looks great Evolvo!!!! very nice work!

tin looks good to me i know it is not EZ .i pick up a long neck bead roller many years ago it s a two man job .i leaned it a fast way to turn good metal to scrap . it spends alot of its time under my welding table. it also great to pinch your finger meat in the drive gears .then pee runs down your leg and then i cry like a little girl .. anways . .your wagon should go like hell

Falcon nothing moving on the 37 yet just doing some gathering , Main goal is the mustang and 31 . The 31 is going on the block running and typical black , picked up a AOD and 8 inch to swap out the 9 and T-5 to the 37 .

I agree the fellas Evolvo. Great looking work!

Same here; I'd love to see some build pics of how you set the drivetrain up.

The new "shop truck" came home yesterday... Needs a bit of work, huh???? Good, solid old truck! It's a '37 Plymouth that is complete, minus the box... Anyway, has a bunch of original parts if anyone knows of a restoration dude who might want them!!!!

And one of the '36, almost time to break it down and start the body work....

That'll be a cool truck Dave!
