20 x 24 . 10 ft. walls.
first plan is to get it inside and see what i have. PO has a bunch of poly mounts, disc brake parts , i have an extra column and a couple of dashes.
i worked in the rain and mud years ago. so i'm waiting til i'm done with the building to get started. good running little 6 , absolutely no brakes , drum/drum , 3spd on 31's . I have everything to rebuild the drums .
But i fire it up and putt around in lowrange from time to time. a few drops in the carb and she fires right up. swapped the points out for the petronix.
PLANS- would like a 44 for the front( high pinion 60 , narrowed down if i hit the lottery) mildly built efi 5.0 or 5.8 . keep the outside looking as stock as possible but putting in some creature comforts. I have remote start on my 07 F-150 and love it. i have an extra set of doors , so i can cut the frame off the top of one set , for when i have the top off . and rebuild the best set for top on.
once in the shop the body will leave the frame . maybe.... huh.. not sure.
i'm probably rambling. but for now finish the insulation and plywood the walls , then pull it in(with chocks in place , don't want to add another door out the back) from that point it will be the cancer inspection.
later,
Shon
