I'll bet everything fits when you are done!  That puppy is going to fly.

latest progress on the ol car...

I had my Jegs chassis frame  tube and rear kick up tubes   in the car (no pics)  and they are not going to work. I need to build my own back section to fit the Morris.

I need to fit a drag race  4 link suspension in the back. I'd like to stand the car on it's bumper at the strip.

what if .  the 4 link arms are only a foot long and the rear crossmember  is not straight.   but like this     ----|_____|----   top view
                                              T   |     |   T
                                              I   |      |   I
                                              R----D-----R
                                              E              E

so the rear crossmember kicks back between the tires and the 4 link rods are really short.   more kick back than i have texed




either that or put a drive shaft loop around the tailhousing of the tranny in the middle of a crossmember and hang nascar style swing arms off of that. the top and bottom of the loops should unbolt from 4 bolt flanges so one could pull the tranny from the top or bottom

I can not buy a built frame like some of these kit type cars guys build.[/b]

Won't a go-cart frame work :?:      :?  :?

How about some frame rails from Art Morrison? You can have them bent how you need them and then install your own cross members. I have no idea what that costs now but it sure would look good. What are you using for suspension and how much setback?

I wish we would have kept the one we had.
