Re: My project 68 with an LS1

Sorry I've got friends that have lots of pics but my camera was stolen. Here is a few more pics of when I started.
I built my frame from 2x4 tubing. I am going to make it air tight and use it as my air tank.

Re: My project 68 with an LS1

How do you drain the moisture out of the frame.Is it as humid there as it is in Arkansas?

Re: My project 68 with an LS1

Had to make a tranny and drive shaft tunnel so I could raise up the LS1 and tranny. I will be able to roll low without any worries. (I hope!) Made my gauge cluster from an old glove box. Have a mustang R&P on it. I hope it handles good.
