Looking good! You getting excited?

Did you channel it slightly over the frame, or is that the way Pontiac built it? [Or am I just not seeing it right?]

Perhaps Jack would be so kind to let you borrow a Pontiac Hemi?

The "Sprint" cammer six he's got in there is the perfect engine for it!

No, I wasn't at the Glen. My only visit there this year will be for the "Vintage Festival" in September. I promised one of the organizers that I'd display and run the hemi V8 at the rod show- probably Saturday the 12th. Any chance you could display the coupe? The guy who "recruited" me is Jeff Stowell from Newark- I'm sure he'd love to see your car there.

Looks great. Couple of Q's:

1. What frame are you using, modded original, your creation, other?

2. Are the front brakes hidden disc brakes under the factory appearing drums?

Very much looking forward to the painted body installed.

The frame rails are the original the x and rear crossmember were fabbed the front crossmember is from a 32 ford. The front brakes are real 59 Buick drums with Wilson welding backing plates and hubs I hate fake brakes��

Was going to add - betcha you're already VERY spoiled working on that hot rod w exposed engine & frame access vs. full-Fendered cars & trucks?
