Bill, as you know in another thread where you replied to me and gave me very very kind comments on my one build and I replied back to you, I been following this build basically from day 1 and you and this build are the ones that really inspired me to do what I am doing on the '69 Charger build that I am working on. You really push the bar on this project to new heights my friend. I am always checking in to see if you made any updates or not as I love the work you done on this project. Keep up the very great work and keep the progress updates coming!

hi Derick, not sure I'm smart enough to do a vid and get it posted, it is a long process for me to make a part, thanks!

[Platerpants]

[Tony T]

Working suspension? Wow...Awesome project.

[vintagedragfan]

thanks so much for the interest guys, I have been working on it, trying to figure out the front suspension, should have some updates soon, thanks again for the support!

[comp1839]

simply over the top bill! incredible skills!

 

i just don't have time to go through all 46 pages so, can you tell me what front suspension you're planning on building?

 

again, simply over the top!

hey Dave , first of all thanks for looking in! originally I wanted to do a double A arm, but with out redoing the left header (which I'm not going to do LOL) there isn't enough room for an upper control arm, so I am going with a strut type suspension, again there is clearance issues with the way I have the headers, A smart person would build the chassis first and build the drive train araound it like in the real world, but I wanted a certain look on the engine and decided to build the chassis around the egine    but I plan to come off the frame with a loop to the top of the strut back down to the frame and not to the fire wall like most, I have seen this done on a few applications and being a street car and not a full blown drag car, more like a Cuda that has been back halved, I am not building it to NHRA standards I'm sure, But I do want to try and make every thing as functional as I am capable, it is just taking a lot of time to figure and make all of the components, I do want it to look a certain way, like it belongs and not just squeezed where it would fit, thanks Dave
