This is gonna be awesome! What sequential transmission are you using? I'm building a 73 Cuda but it's very basic, stoked to see people not afraid to modify them.

Its a PPG gear set in a T56 magnum case.

Yes, cut it up and make it what you want, more importantly make it fun and safe to drive. I've had Mopars most of my adult life, and if I hear, "it's 1 of blah, blah, blah" one more time, I'm gonna puke coat hangers. They were all 1 of something, and they don't all need to be restored!

Time to put the cross member in. It is designed to go directly below the main hoop and tie into the rocker and rocker boxes.




It will attach to the forward part of the floor and tie into the existing sub frame connectors.

You know I'm so visual ... sometimes I don't get it until I see it.

Now I see what you mean about the frame being quite a ways below the rocker. I agree with your plan to trim the outer edges up towards the rocker surface, after the lower link brackets are installed.

It actually matches the front. This is how they are stock. Crap hangs 2" below the rocker from the factory. It actually works out well. The belly pan mounts right to this and clears the drivetrain.
