I warn you now on the dropped control arms.... I had a buddy total his 65swb w/perfect patina (before the current trend) because the control arm drop pocket made contact w/a manhole cover @ speed. Tweaked the frame to an almost cartoon shape.

He had 15" wheels & shorter sidewalls but be careful all the same.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
