Might as well make this my build thread.

I spent the last couple weekends stripping Bonnie and transfering some of the stuff to Clyde.

So far:

Motor, transmission, fuel tank, brake lines, front and rear axles, shocks, and fuel line from Bonnie are in Clyde.

Bonnie is stripped and ready for her new Mustang II front end, and Ford 8.8 rear end.

Bonnie goes off to the welder this week.

Clyde is another story. Bonnie had a cable E-brake, and Clyde had the E-brake on the back of the transmission. I'm going to have to figure a way to rig that up. Clyde had a two piece drive line so I'm going to have to get a new driveline made that is a tad bit longer. The wiring on Clyde is a disaster. I pulled everything out of Bonnie and will use that to rewire Clyde. I ordered a complete new wiring harness for Bonnie so she doesn't need her's anymore.

If anyone local is interested. I plan to sell the motor, transmission, and both axles from Clyde. He's a one ton so the axles are 8 lugs.

Some photos:
