Thanks Harry!!!

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

That's going to make a wicked hot rod! Looking forward to part 2!

[@SpeedandChromeTV]

I sure hope so. I have a good plan going.

[@Onyx408]

Can’t wait to see part 2 this looks good

[@alterexistence483]

Man super stoked on this build!! Motivating me to find a body and frame for the parts I’ve been collecting. My hemi with Edmunds 2x2 needs its jewelry box

[@SpeedandChromeTV]

Thanks! this is one of those bucket list cars for me.

[@ACDesignsGarage]

Man this is gonna be a cool build

[@SpeedandChromeTV]

Man, I hope so. It looks good in my head.

[@danleneker4598]

Are there plans you can share with me. I just bought an A frame and need help to figure out what I need. Thx u

[@SpeedandChromeTV]

Right now I'm just collecting parts. Are you just starting with a frame? I'd start by figuring out what engine and trans you want to run, a huge part of the build cost will be around that. Then if you don't have a body, figuring out what body type you want to run.

@@SpeedandChromeTV have a Ford 302 w tranny 8” rear end

[@SpeedandChromeTV]

@@danleneker4598 Auto or standard trans? Sounds like a solid start. What body you plan to run?

[@danwallace9055]

Was wondering what engine/transmissions combination are you planning?

[@SpeedandChromeTV]

Yblock 292 and a T5 if all goes as planned.

[@danwallace9055]

@@SpeedandChromeTV would you consider an FE Y-block instead. The 292 is a good engine too. The best thiing about the FE is that the distributor is in the frount so you don't have to worry about firewall clearance. Good luck on your build.

[@SpeedandChromeTV]

@@danwallace9055 I'm building a 1950s styled hot rod so a y-block would fit perfectly. FE's are rad and I want to build a blown 427 for my gasser eventually. I already have all the parts to put in the y-block. Its basically the same size as a small block chevy and we know thats been done a million times.
