  1. Well I was letting the paint cure,got to makeing a bed for this first I have to make a sub floor because the interior is only about 2 inches long and the pan and frame are one piece holes where the rails and tank are,just used flat sheet to do that job.Then i used angle and flat sheet for the bed.But I wanted to see what it looks like with the wheels and body together , the mock up gives some in sight to the ride stance.Now I'm using the stock kit trans and the 66 nova engine have to flip oil pan for crossmemeber clearance and remake front of pan.Going to use stringray3 front drive and intake manifold. Remember it's later than you think
