A big welcome from Canada EH!! got any pics of your panel?

HEY DUBIE
Thanks for the welcome.
got some pics of the panel when i first got it last summer and some progress pics. just got to figger out how to post em.
we clipped the front end with a 67 truck clip. we wanted to stay with truck stuff as much as possible. we took 2" out of the crossmember for drop and used caddy upper a-arms for cam adjustment. using toyota 4x4 steering box to compensate with drop. found a caddy tilt/ telescoping non ign column to use.
