I'm not sure on advantages, i just liked the look of keeping most of the stuff inside the frame rails. But if you emailed Nate @ Porterbuilt street rods he will give you some good info. I know it will lay out up to a 31" tire out back. |

Dude don't tell me that about the crossmember. I have to do mine this weekend and I'm doing it on a burb body on frame.

Re: Porterbuilt parts
Incredible build, I like the way you're doing a combination of satin black and silver. It really sets it off and looks superb.

Re: Porterbuilt parts
Dude very nice. Can you do me a favor and measure the rear frame height? Bottom of the frame to the ground, were the gas tank goes. I want to get a tank ordered now while I wait for my on parts. Thanks
