      64 Falcon autocross and track car


      I have been working on this project on nights and weekends for a couple of months and figured it was time to start a thread. It will be built for autocross and track days. if there are any questions feel free to ask. I manage Dick's Hot Rod Shop in MN and that is where I am building it. It will be a car that will represent our shop at the events we attend.

      Wow this is going for the baddess pro touring falcon. But why a truck arm suspension and not a 3 link, parallel 4 link, or a torque arm?

      Love it! What is going on in your third picture down? Is it adjustable without slip? Different washers?
      thanks.

      It was a compromise for me but hopefully it will work good. I wanted to keep the back seat.
      I also wanted to try something different and see if i could make it work. I have done a fair
      amount of auto crossing with a 3 link rear and that worked good but for the best geometry
      it had no rear seat. If i don't like it i can always cut it up and change it.

      It is like an eccentric but with offset slugs. The slugs I cut out of stainless and the keepers on the bracket are stainless so they wont rust if
      they get beat up.

      Very Very Nice -- -- I so wish I had the capability to make all those cool pieces to weld together -- It keeps me from tackling several things I want to do to my car

      Using the QMI reverse mount is pretty cool and hardcore. I gather this car is getting some sort of NASCARish T10 dogging trans?

      Engine is a 410 ci LS that will be dynoed in the next month. I will post the numbers when I have them.
      Trans is a tex racing t101a 4 speed with dog rings, clutch less shifting.
