I originally cut the drag chassis in half just in front of the tubs. I’ve narrowed them to suit the 32’s fenders. Kept one tail shift loop. Trimmed all of the rear off which included a fuel cell because it wouldn’t fit under the 32’s boot. When in place it looks good but it’ll have to set the ride height when I install the tubs so I’ll paint and finish the rear suspension next. Front of the drag chassis from about the seats forward will be used.
:lol: Sounds like some serious cutting and shutting going on to shoe horn the drag components under the 32 body. Keep at it dude, as ive said its bad ass already, cant wait to see some mock ups with the engine. hi5 thumbsup

Didn’t do as much as I wanted today. Maybe spent 45 minute on this tops. Still need to open the grill more, notch out the fenders to get engine plate to drop down into the new tube chassis section.

Also here’s the motor pics I believe Lukes waiting to see. Still need to paint bits and stuff but I’ve got this to a point where I can use it for mock ups. Twin blown small block Ford. The blower belts fit inside the grill too :D

Done some trimming but no real progress. The madness is coming together pretty good I think yes! Next up is trimming the chassis more and then making the air cleaners and radiator setup fit ohno
