I got over being pissed at my car for being broken over a year or two ago.
![]() The four bolt small block and cam parts is starting to sound appealing. ![]() To back up my claims for those that have only known my DSM adventrues. I've still got a 46 Ford truck that I stripped, cut the entire frame apart, rewelded back together with all tubular cross supports at a narrow gage to fit a MustangII front suspension crossmember (Regular Street Rod swap), boxed in the frame at the ends for stiffness, fabricated new spring perches for the rear and bolted in a Chevy Rear suspension at that narrow gage by removing and re-welding new mounts on the axle housing. Custom motor mounts for a Ford small block and new cab supports were all fabbricated and welded on as well. In short I had total disregard for most of what the engineers had designed this truck for and made it the way I wanted and could afford at the time. This spirit still runs through every project I do, it's just temperd a bit now by nowing the less things you change at one time the better chances you have of getting thigs running a lot quicker. AWD on the CRACK. ![]() -------------------- In Loving memory of David T Crebo
