Spot on, weld some plates on that ? While you’re there, I would just weld plates on all the frame “turns” for added support. Another KZbinr put disk brakes on his, looked pretty easy. They have kits, not so expensive, at least for the front brakes, including a new master cylinder. You’re like me? Where you just like to look at the great work you did and admire it.

My frame was bent and rusted badly nice job fixing that up. So I am putting in a V-6 could you show in another video how your power steering steering column, pump, steering shafts and other stuff are installed I know this is a lot but it would really be appreciated

hi Maxx - sorry for the late reply; I sure will; I am starting another project here shortly and I will also include that; but I will make a video on Slumdog steering because I have to replace the power steering on that one. Thanks for watching - Ernie.

A little late to the game, (as always!! lol), but enjoy these vids. You did a great job here on that frame. You were better off doing it yourself imho. Glad to see someone who is hands on with their stuff. AND, you've got a really good basic understanding of how things need to be done!! Too many ppl overtime stuff like this. I'm a big fan of 'kiss', & doing what needs to be done, to get it done.......right! Many kudos from the az cactus patch!!!

Piss off the neighbors ? I’d be helping you if I were your neighbor. I’m a dude, name is just a twist of one of my favorite metal band vocalists, King Diamond of Mercyful Fate. Sounds like by me out there, all the helicopter and single engine plane traffic over me from NYC to the Hamptons & Republic Airport (Long Island, NY). I wish I had your metal work knowledge. Get some D60s for axles ;)
