New Guy with a different type Ford

[caper150]

This is my first post here,it's my 65 Ford Gaaxie.As alays with these cars the frameneeds repair.Here are some pics of my frame repair that I have done so far.It's taking ne awhile to do this simply because I've been clearing land for my new shop that I'll start building soon,a 32X40 with floor heat so I can work during those cold MN winters,once it's built I'll be spending more time on the Galaxie after that.I plan on shaving all the doors and possibly suciding the rears like the Lincons.So on with the pics.
Start out by making one into two.





Cut out of the rusted front part of the frame



Repaired area with 10 GA. metal welded in.(I still need to do some trimming on it) This was done both sides.



I still have the rear to do,it's pretty bad.




So I'vebeen considering replacing it with this.

Pulley Engineering's Rear Sub-Frame Kits are constructed of 2" x 3" x .083" wall box tubing.

These kits include:
A pair of Mandrel Bent rear frame rails
A dropped crossmember
A coil over shock crossmember
Shock mounting brakets and hardware
A rear frame crossmember
A pair of sub-frame connectors
Installation bluebrints

And this as the rear suspension.

The front will be bagged as well.

What do you all think,any input would be great.

I also need some sort of name for this car as well.
