There is a place in the Keweenaw peninsula sticking into Lake Superior that had 394 in of snow a few years back, they put a gage up on the side of the road showing just how high it was. That's way too much snow.

Got the X and upper front shock mounts tacked up today, will try to get pics posted tomorrow, have to buy another piece of tube and the rear will come together, will be making a small change to the rear frame over the axle but nothing serious.

Thanks Patrick, I will try that for my next post. I have the cowl hoop tacked up and tack mounted onto the outriggers, modified the tie rod ends to get the toe in set, will order the proper parts for final assembly. will post pics in the next couple days. Will be going to the scrap yard in the morning to check out the T-bird rotors for fit, they are 10.5 in dia and the caliper brackets will allow standard parts to be used ( all Ford no GM stuff). Carl.

Picked up a 302 to rebuild, needs boring and maybe a stroker to make it 347.
Also picked up a T-5 now I must find the bellhousing and I can do a fitup before I rebuild the engine. The engine came with a set of 1966 heads which have 57cc chambers, this may be something I can work with. Just gathering parts and finishing the honey-do's till the white stuff flies again.

Hey Guys, I posted this in the classified area but figured more would see it here; I need a T-5 yoke or drive shaft from a Mustang with a T-5 so I can work on my drive shaft. Don't want to buy new if I can help it. Just the old hot rodder in me. Thanks Carl.

Hey guys, I was looking thru my new Ford performance catalog today and found out that I have 3 yokes already, the C-4/Aod and the T-5 use the same yoke. Thanks for your help Carl.

Hey Carl, make sure you take lots of notes and prepare final drawings when you are done. Looks like the boys in THIS THREAD will be needing a frame and chassis design for their project.
Excellent work!
Jim

Thanks Jim, I'm updating my prints as I make changes and if anyone has a need when it's done I will make everything available. Right now I'm working on the cowl hoop, after I got the dimensions from you I found I was about 3 in too far back and too wide at the top. The outriggers are perfect so tomorrow the work continues.
