Default corner carving street rod

Some of you guys remember me whining about my deuce not long ago.. and since i just got a temp job the next 2 months before i start my new one in march, i figured it was time to look into a project... (ive been beating myself over the deuce i sold every day.. and the PT-malibu, drives awesome.. but it just isnt as close to my heart as the old streetrods... )

so i have this stuff left over: 1 Ls1 engine, heads cam etc 535fwhp. paddleshiftet 4l60e, pt converter, vintage air magnumIV.. etc etc...

and i found a nice rust free 35 ford hump back with wood replaced.. The guy i bought it from has an old school hot rod shop and he will chop it 2.5 inches ,cut and fit doors,roof,finish all welding,cut down window frames.. and hang doors suicide style..

Ill be doing the frame, plan was to install the mustang 2 IFS with SPC arms and a shortened jag suspension... but i talked to my suspension parts pusher who offered to help do some suspension geometry enginering.. so im looking at doing C5/6 front and rear uprights with some off the shelf arms.. but doing the x members in house and mounting the arms to get the handling as good as the malibu...

and with 450 rwhp it should be a fun car :-)
