Like the '69 Firebird you're building, those 55-56 Fords are great looking but sometimes overlooked cars. What's the build style? What kind of handling capabilities are planned? What powertrain will be used? |

Its going to be a classic styled car kind of an art deco theme. Its got a front suspension that we built in house using GM spindles. The rear is just a parrell four link with a watts setup. It has air ride. ford 302 with an AOD transmission. -troy |

Why did you fab up metalwork -- only to cover it with the fiberglass insert? |

So good looking!

when you made those carbon vent molds, did you use a gel coat over the fiberglass to get a smooth finish?

Wow, this looks great. Which you have heard a 100 times already. How did you get the indentions from the cardboard to metal and then into the core support? Did you cut out the hole from the template and then weld the other pieces in? Sorry for probably an easy answer to a dumb just learning fabricator!

Troy ....... Love the details its awsome!!!!

I love all the work that you have done so far especially the roll cage. How are you going to install head liner and panels with the cage tucked so tight?
