Here is the frame it is 95% done...I had to resort to the old drum brakes for now to get her rolling.....I still need to mount the shocks up front yet,put the motor and trans in and weld the exhaust up.....thanks

Yes..It takes about 3hrs for me to get to Columbus....a little drop by especially at $2.67 a gallon may be expensive.....Thanks

awsome love the frame!
Did you do that yourself??

[jelky68]

Thanks...I did the frame myself..right out of that garage..as you can see the body is in the backround waiting its turn..I can't have both in at the same time with all the tools and machinery....The pics are with the air ride all the way down...I have another 6"-7" to raise for ride height.....Thanks again....Jim

The old Street Machine Nationals are now called the Steel Valley nationals and are held at Quaker City Raceway in salem..I am not sure of the dates...I have done alot of cars in the past but his wagon has been the neatest thing yet....I still can't wait to put the interior in..I bought a full interior out of a 2002 Cadillac Seville with the heated seats front and back,and rear heat for the passengers..I also bought a 2004 Overhead console out of a Tahoe with the digital compass and the digital outside temperature.....I love placing new model items in old cars....I am also planning an LS1 swap with the 4L60 as soon as I move to my new house and C5 outside mirrors...This will be a different 1966 Impala Wagon...Oh yea i almost forgot one of the best parts..an original 1966 Impala Roof Rack.....WHOOOHOOO!!!!!:firefire:
