Front end parts on order. I've decided to piece the chassis together myself instead of a pre-fab. More pics as things arrive and get assembled:
46" wide drilled & 4" drop front axle.
Drilled split wishbone radius arms.
1940's ford spindles & kingpins
Disc brake brackets, rotors & calipers
15" x 5" American Racing VN502 wheels to match the rears
Firestone 155/8-15 front tires.
Still need front leaf spring, shackles & radius arm spring pivots/eyelets & friction shocks.

I'm thinking of welding the engine mount tabs on the outside of the frame and sandwich a biscuit (flathead ford) mount under the BMW engine mount brackets. As long as they don't interfere with the wishbones. I'm going to do my damndest to mount the grill behind the axle, I don't really like the look of the grill in front of the axle on a TLast edited by Mykk; 10-27-2018, 06:53 PM.

Just curious why you decided to go with inboard brakes, I'm a huge fan of inboard brakes but I'm curious for your choice, I'd think the sprung weight can't play a huge role, and since they're not traditional outboard I imagine they won't cool as well. Side note, this is the coolest build on this page, and I love the updates

Found a clutch master & brake master pedal assembly from a sandrail, fitment is tight. To tight to the exhaust, I may be able to lower mounting and pull forward a bit. The back of the tapeline is the frontmost of the T cab.
Also had an idea for the headlights I wanted to try, I actually kind of dig it.
"Hey you"
"Yeah?"
"What are you staring at?"
"Uhh...nuthin"
