  1. great start. FYI. you dont need the panhard bar the way the suspension is set up.
  2. I also am not taking anything away from the build, Its looking awesome, ( as does everything Jim builds) to answer your question, the body should be more forward on the frame, and when I build mine, I will shorten the front half of the wheelbas as well by tucking the front suspension closer to the cross member.
  3. Ill be sending a link to this over to Dalton. Hes a really cool, down to earth guy. Its also one of my favorite builds hes done
  4. Ive been thinking of digging out one of my T kits but I keep finding other things to mess with. One thing Ive always disliked s how far back the body sits on the frame, which may be why I havent taken one out yet. Ill be watching as I think you have a coll little hot rod in the works
  5. Im late to the game, but its good to see you back at the bench! One of my favorite builders building one of my favorite era drag cars
  6. NICE!!! I was that kid haha I still own the car (65 Comet)too, nearly 29 years
  7. amazing work as always Tim. Being born in 79, it was Biffs convertible that made me fall in love with 46 to 48 Ford convertibles. Then once I started reading the Little Pages I was given in middle school, A 3/4 rear shot of Tony Frenns 47 absolutely ruined me
  8. Love it! The rear in the 66 Nova is a dana 60 I believe which is why it probably looks large to most people. The were popular for racing because they came in trucks and high performance mopars. Ford actually put 60s in their early pro stock Mavericks/Comets to help make legal weight
  9. I dig it! Any plans to cut the rear wheelwells open more?
  10. FREAKIN AWESOME!!!!I would change nothing!!! I NEVER say that haha
