Do you have a photobucket account? Seems to be the easiest way to me to post photos. Just copy the IMG code and paste it in the message box. If you aren't sure what you have, take good pictures of underhood (firewall and forward towards radiator), the chasis underneath if possible, the cockpit, any ID tags or frame stampings and the trunk. Describe what type of frame construction it has, type of front and rear suspension, etc. That should get you some feedback. Welcome to the insanity.

Thanks I will take some pictures and set up a photobucket acc and post.
It's not much to look at.. A body sitting on a frame with a mockup engine and trans sitting in it. no dash or interior.
My biggest concern right now is to see if the engine is in the correct location looks to be too far back...
