      Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
      Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

      Thanks
      Yes I did finish it not to long ago but a little run into a wall can give you all kinds of ideas.
      Well the plan right now is to replace quarters, tail panel. Cut the floor out from the firewall to the rear bumper. Make make a fully integrated frame with a 6" rocker ride height, 10pt cage, quadra link, mini tubs,18x10.5r 18x8.5 f wheels, keeping the 5 speed and 383. Should be a fun project.

      That's a pretty sweet frame jig. Did you guys make that, have it made or buy it?

      So you're going to make your subframe into a full-frame, sounds good to me. You should be able to make it sit as low as you want then, right?

      Good Luck - keep us updated.
