1 section of the rear floor board was replaced by someone with no skills at all , its horrible. The rest seams very solid. I been thinking if i had to replace the floor anyway , why not full frame it. I have seen the Scwartz chassis and spoke with Jeff himself. I'm still wieghing the options, I'd love to go full frame, but I dont wanna start something i cant finish either.

Unless you saw it already.

Talk to him, he know's how involved it is and i don't think he regrets it one single second!

I have a friend who's also in the middle of doing same on a 69 as well but is presently contempling building his own frame or farming out to a reputed local circle track car builder.

BUT, if you know you don't really want to do it, might as well not look at Highwayman's, because once you see how MEAN it is, (and also from understanding your motto might as well be "BIGGER IS BETTER") you're gonna be in it before you know it. :thumbsup: :D

I say, if you've got the means and patience...GO GO GO!!! ('Cause if its what you wanted in the first place...because you said this is the car you want to reflect the car YOU ALWAY'S WANTED... well, you probably don't want to end up telling yourself you should have done it everytime you look at it in your garage)

Again, i sold my coupe because it was opened up alll the way and setted on the jig...and i figured i would never have enough time to finish it in this century...So i got one i'm building while enjoying. (even tought its bugging me a bit still to put it up on the BBQ...) :willy:

Just sayin' i know how you feel.

Anyway, keep us posted! And good luck!

Well #%^@ !! Highwayman just cost me a few grand and lotsa late nights, not to mention the busted knuckles, and cut fingers in gonna be getting.

Its over I must have that stance/look....so much for driving my car this spring, I feel this taking me a while to complete.

The only major concern i have is how to correctly remount the body to the frame. I have no experience with this part at all..links post and pictures please

I will check, i have read other threads where he showed how he mounted the body (Directly to the rockers-easy). But otherwise, you could do a search for the threads Highwayman started or send him a pm.

Sorry to hear seeing his car got you into this major project. I'm feeling bad knowing your gonna have a totally Bad A$$ car because of me... :lol:

Hey, FYI, I think Sears has the big sawZall on special this week, might come in handy... :unibrow: hehe.

there was a guy with a 68 coupe on the Other site also doing a maxg but fairly slowly i have pics of it
im sure you can either bolt her up or weld her in
Know make sure you pik the right size wheels lol :unibrow:
They will help you im sure

Hey Customcam,

I'm just curious.....What would be the ideal wheel size in your opinion??? ;)

Come on, lets hear this.

(I feel like i could dig it!) :thumbsup:

on a 68 id look at 20 inch rears. the beauty of the maxG is that you tuck everything under the car What a look :yes: iv seen a cpl of 67/68 with an 18/20 inch combo looks ok but 19" front "Like urs Lead!" will look killer
Remember Alloway built that Challenger it had 22 inch rears and didnt even look like it. i thought they were 20 inch rears. can any 1 argue about that car? :hail:
Silver maybe with Black/Dark Grey 3 piece wheels and Black drop top at 4" off the ground man :wow: ls2/ls7 TT? its all over lol :willy:

A few things. Since the fender and quarter openings are round on the 67 / 68 instead of square as on the 69, the 67 / 68 will never have the same look as the 69 pictured. The sheetmetal simply will not cup the tire and wheel combo like that. If you plan to have a functional folding top, without spending HUGE money on a custom top mechanism, Project Prodigy is as low as you can go and still use the top. I want to say Hiway mans rocker is 5" height in those pics, and BTW, there was a lot of talk of him raising the car becuse of the suspension being in droop in those pics. Prodigy for comparison is a 6" rocker height, but to glance at the two cars it looks like a 3" or 4" difference, not one inch or less. It's those wheel well openings

Prodigy runs 19s and 20s and swallows them pretty well. You will need to plan a tire in the high 26" to 27" height range
