You could quit now and have a really, really nice car. I love watching the progress and how quick you guys are moving along. Also it's a bit depressing I think all I got done in the last month is putting on the rear window stainless...
By the way thanks for the rear, everything checked good and ready for the car.

my car has a ford 9 inch under it. i got around 450 for mine shipping included. it was used, but in nice shape.Basically doing the same things to my car. But I'm doing a 340hp 409 64 with a 700r4 tran need a posi to hold up to the increased hp. Another member on this site has one but he wants an offer around 950. The rebuild will have more hp than 340hp. Single Carter Carb. Any help would be great!
yeah, i heard from the guys at goolsby customs in b'ham back in winter of last year that roadster shop was working with someone on a chassis. in the end it will probably be easier and more cost efficient to buy one rather than build one. also if time was a factor, i could see it. i paid 75 dollars for my car minus motor and trans. so, i figure if i can have my chassis rolling for 8 grand in parts i am ok. my time to me is free, so that helps. but, if i added up all the labor, your chassis and mine will cost about the same. what floor mods will you need to do? core support? headers? you guys probably got all that figured out. nice looking chassis.Your car is really coming along The Roadster shop builds a chassis for RPM HOT RODS that fits our cars .But it's around $15,000.
they have 62 Bubble top they are put one of these chassis in now it's on their facebook page .
RPM X Frame Custom Chassis Now Available
Being a huge fan of the X frame cars, we here at RPM know first hand of all of the downsides to the stock X frame.
Handling is nonexistent, exhaust routing is more than difficult and the aftermarket world has very little to offer to those who want more out of their car.
Recognizing the obvious need for a chassis that would eliminate all of the issues with the X frame, RPM teamed up with The Roadster Shop to design and develop a chassis that would take the Impala, BelAir, Biscayne, and all other X frame cars to the next level!
